Guests have noted that the property offers spacious, well-maintained rooms and generally clean washrooms, which is a plus. However, there are significant concerns regarding cleanliness of bedding and towels, and many have highlighted poor service, with a lack of room service and absent reception staff frequently mentioned. The location is also a drawback, being quite far from the city center, making it less ideal for families and couples. Some appreciated the food quality and bar facilities.

Poor Stay
Bedsheets, pillow covers, towels are very dirty. There is no one in reception most of the time, no room service. The hotel is very far from city centre pondicherry. No transport or hotels near by. Bar is there within hotel premises at reception and basement. Very very unsafe for families with ladies. Not at all recommended
Room: Deluxe Double
Terrible Stay
The hotel service and room condition is very poor and is in pathetic condition. The bar is just in front of the hotel way and is not safe for families to stay over there. We had a very bad experience. Receptionist was drunk and didn't attend us properly. He went to bar immediately after handover key. We were not satisfied with this stay. I will not recommend anyone to stay on this hotel especially along with family.

Location is far away from white Town so prices are cheap. Would not suggest for couples or families
Everything is at an acceptable level except the location. Good for bachelor's but not suggest for family and couples unless you are familiar with Pondicherry.
