    Loved my stay here, it is near to the beach and has good reading area and cafe. The major problem is rooms and washroom. Washroom has exhaust to inside of the room how pathetic it is, the smell first has to come room, then go outside. Second thing is the cap to the fan is not working, this is danger thing, not sure how they left it without repairing

    Poor maintenance is of rooms. Very bad odour. All over rooms rats after we sleep. One my bags got damaged due to rats. One of my friend's head set has been by cleaning lady when we stepped out of the room for beach visit. We don't need a cleaning unless we ask for when entire dormitory is assigned to our group. Owner disconnecting calls when called for They could not fix the geyser and repair it for our entire stay with the reason of electrician unavailability.

    The stay was not bad but a place simply to put away our stuff and roam around in the city ac rooms were good but the non ac ones were not, so we upgraded to ac by paying around 350 per bed extra. The staff was friendly but no special requests were entertained as such
