My recent stay at Hotel Friends Regency in Ludhiana was unfortunately one of the worst hotel experiences I have ever had. I feel to share my feedback in the hope that management takes serious note of the fundamental issues their establishment.
Room Condition and Cleanliness:
Upon entering my room, I was immediately greeted by of neglect. The room was visibly dirty, with dust on the furniture and stains on the upholstery. It was clear that proper cleaning had not been done in a long time. The most part was the presence of insects. The room was infested, which made for an extremely uncomfortable and unsettling night's sleep. This is a basic standard of hygiene that any hotel must meet, and Hotel Friends Regency failed spectacularly.
Washroom:
The lack of cleanliness extended to the washroom, which was in a state. The fixtures were stained, the floor was unclean, and there was a persistent unpleasant odor. It was unsanitary and fell far below any acceptable standard of hygiene.
Hotel Facilities and Food:
The overall facilities of the hotel were poorly maintained and felt dated. Furthermore, the complimentary breakfast was a significant letdown. The options were extremely limited, offering selection. It was a very poor start to the day and did not feel like a valued part of the hotel service.
Conclusion:
My experience was defined by a lack of basic cleanliness, an insect-infested room, and subpar amenities. I cannot in good conscience recommend this hotel to anyone. The management needs to urgently address these critical issues of hygiene and maintenance to be considered a viable option for travelers.
