Rooms are neat and clean, very close to bus station and railway station, worth for money, front desk and support while asking for location or talking to drivers to give a way was amazing!

Outstanding Hospitality! Our hotel stay was an absolute delight! The welcoming atmosphere, delectable cuisine, and exceptional service exceeded our wildest expectations. However, Avanthika's remarkable professionalism and genuine warmth at the front desk truly stole the show. Her dedication ensured a personalized and memorable experience. We eagerly anticipate our next visit!
