early check-inindian sim
The staff facilitated a very early check-in at 3am. they also allowed a late check-out. breakfast was served on the terrace after hours. It was a nice touch. one staff member bought an indian mobile sim for me. I did not have to queue.
the location was further from the city center than i expected. i used my gps to guide taxi drivers to the bungalow. the metro was also a little further than i thought.

Beautifully Restored Heritage Stay

helpful stafffine architecturepolite teamdistant location
The staff was helpful and friendly. The room and building architecture was fine. They were very polite, and nothing was too difficult (.
The location was a little further from the city center than i expected. It made guiding taxi drivers via gps to the bungalow a small challenge. The metro was also a bit further than i thought.

street noise was quite disruptive i struggled to get a restful sleep. the room also had some cleanliness issues particularly in the bathroom i noticed some mold. the bed felt too firm for my liking it lacked the comfort expected at this price. furthermore the pillows were equally hard these factors impacted sleep quality considerably.
