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.

Good Stay

Welcoming front desk staff & very hospitable kitchen staff and others. Crowd is good. Safe environment. You’ll have to bring your own towels and other supplies for bath and washing clothes if you’re here for a longer stay. Food menu and taste and quantity can be improved (certainly not the best, but for a quick bite yes- it’ll do) Apart from that.. it was a good experience! 🙂

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”
