The location is serene, providing the perfect backdrop for a peaceful getaway. The murals adorning the walls add a unique artistic touch, creating a vibe that's both cozy and vibrant. One of the highlights of my stay was definitely the karaoke night — a fun and lively experience that brought everyone together. The atmosphere here is unmatched, with a perfect blend of relaxation and community spirit.

Place was kept clean. The bedlinens were clean. Shared bathrooms were kept hygenic. My only concern is that they can remove the restirction of “Open area is accessible only till 12AM”
