    Review Summary

    Powered by Myra.AI

    This property is conveniently located just a short walk from Chennai Central Railway Station, making it ideal for those on a quick trip. Guests appreciate the friendly and cooperative staff and decent cleanliness in rooms. However, recurring issues include small room sizes and inconsistent maintenance, like malfunctioning TVs and bathrooms needing attention. The breakfast offerings also leave room for improvement.

    Thanks for your rating and review. We deeply regret for the inconvenience you have faced during your stay with us. We shall look into the matter seriously. We enquired and found that there was a cable problem, hence the tv was not working for sometime and it got rectified too. Since you were given the room in the 3rd floor, the pressure of the water is less, hence you faced the health faucet not working. We look forward towards your next visit in the near future and we ensure of our best services.

    Thanks for your rating and review. All rooms are air conditioned, so we do not have ventilation in the rooms. Since during rainy days, the walls in the rooms happen to be like seepage, but its not actually seepage, but due to the climate.

    Terrible Stay

    mandar k.loyalty-iconbusiness

    Hotel staff was not friendly. Intercom was not working and didn't repair even after informing them. Tv was not working and got fixed after informing. The tv remotes were in pathetic condition. They said hot water will be available after 7am but there was no hot water, had to manage bath with cold water. This hotel is utter waste for the price they are charging.

    Thanks for your rating and review. Soaps, water and towels are already placed in the rooms at the time of arrival. You booking was a non ac room that's why ac room was not provided which was the difference of opinion at the time of check in at the front desk. Anyhow, we will take care of the same.

    Poor Stay

    rajesh.solo

    The hotel room was unclean, there was a stench in the room and no exhaust in the bathroom. Moreover, no water was given in the room to drink. The next morning, in the name of complimentary breakfast, they served roadside food packed in plastic and paper! against all politeness and courtesy, the hotel staff was rude. The moment we checked in, late at night, we were told to vacate the room the next morning at 10 am as if we were not aware of it.

    Hotel is very conveniently located very near to chennai central. Best location. Room is ok, furniture looks old. Bathroom hygiene conditions are not satisfactory. A/c was working well but after it was stopped, water leakage started from a/c. Food was ok. Fresh bed sheets was not provided. For one night stay it is ok.

Even though you checked in @ 5.15 am, we have blocked the room for you from the previous day 12 noon itself as its a prepaid guaranteed booking.
