Terrible Stay

priyaranjan b.loyalty-icon

I booked 2 rooms for rs. 9177. When i reached in one room fan was not working. Upon enquiry the manager was so rude and asked us to cancel and go. I was with family and kid. First of all this hotel is not worth this value. Knowing that we stayed there. But can't expect rude behaviour like this. Remove this hotel from the list. They are looting people during holiday time. I don't need any ticket. Please close it

Worst stay i ever had

amitabh d.family

Very small room, damp wall, stained bedsheets, no food facility. It is kinda rs 500 hotel, not worth of 2k at all. We also felt security issues. I would never recommend this hotel to anyone.

Had an average stay here

priyanka.loyalty-iconfamily

Good for the price paid. Plus point is beach is close and you can go anytime. However there wasn't anyone but suresh to attend. He is good but everything is kind of self service here. I will only recommend for bachelors. Cons : we had pay room cleaning as well which actually should be included in hotel charges.

It was out first time using the app and staying as well, the manager named suresh was very helpful, he shifted rooms for us based on availability and arranged a scooter from local for transit the whole time also gave us a map of the u. T suggested the time to visit the attractions out there. The rooms v ere tidy, cleaned before we checked in. We even had a movie night on the tv installed. The geyser was very effective too. The location of the hotel is very near to the beach so that we walked to beach every night and had sea food at the local outlets. The local busses from pondichery had a stop on the street to serenity beach which helped cutting down cost and time. Overall a nice stay experience.

Location is very much near to beach just 2 min walk. There is no food available. On call you can order from nearby restaurant but very limited items. There was no hygiene. Bathroom and rooms was smelly and there was leakage from faucet. Curtains were dirty and was smelling, had to put room fresheners and our deodorant. Spider web and cockroaches were there in rooms. Wifi and intercoms were not working. When asked they provide soaps for hand cleaning and towels were very dirty. They provided only 1 bottle per room when asked. There was frequent power cuts in night. Most sockets were not working. We had to use tv sockets to charge our mobile phones. Not suggested for family with children. One more thing we were overcharged, while enquiring hotel person said the highest charge of the hotel was half of what we have been charged. The average rate of hotel was 1500 to 2000 while we were charged 3500 per day.
