indian optionslive cookingtowel facilities
i found the breakfast buffet generous. it included a mix of continental and indian options. there were live cooking stations where i could get freshly made dosas and omelettes. the hotel also had an indoor swimming pool and gym on the second floor, both were clean and had water and towels.
I noticed the response time from the staff was slower than expected on some occasions. For example, requests for towels took a while to be fulfilled.
