*Title: Worst Hotel Experience Ever - Avoid Akash Inn*

I stayed at Akash Inn and it was an extremely bad experience.

The rooms are very small. There is no fan in the room and the AC does not work properly. The worst part is their AC policy — as soon as you step out of the room for any work, their staff switches off the AC from the main switch outside. Even if you have already turned off the AC properly and locked the room, they still cut the power. So every time you return, you have to call them and ask them to turn the AC back on. This is very inconvenient.

During checkout, when I asked for the final amount and took out my calculator to check the bill, one of their managers got completely frustrated. He started speaking very loudly and rudely. When I asked if this is how they talk to guests, he became even more aggressive and started waving his hands as if he was abusing me.

This was the worst hotel experience I have ever had. I will never recommend this hotel to anyone.

Satisfactory
Pros:

Room was small. They changed the room on request to a better room. The bed sheets were very shabby and torn. Changed that also. From next day sheets were clean. Location was good.

Cons:

Washroom needs to be upgraded. Overall stay was good.
