It was a decent stay for a good price.
Pros:

I liked the location and service by staff members.

Cons:

There could be more variety in the breakfast menu. The fan in my non-AC room could be better placed. It was incredibly hot and I did not sleep well.

Pros:

ロケーションが良く、メトロ徒歩圏内で近くで夕食を食べる場所にも困りません。バスルームなしの部屋を選択しましたが、部屋の前がバスルームだったので特に問題がありませんでした。一人旅では充分すぎるほど広い部屋で清潔でした。コスパ重視で満足しています。

Cons:

シャワーは使えず、バケツに溜める方法で使用。インドでは当たり前なのでしょうが、水量と温度が上がるともっと快適になります。

Pros:

La gentillesse du personnel d'accueil et les personnes qui nettoyaient.

Cons:

Dans une cour séparée de l'hôtel par des fenêtres aux carreaux souvent brisés, il y a des terrains de tennis qui sont occupés de 6h30 du matin à 23h.
Csst donc extrêmement bruyant, surtout quand on essaie de dormir.
Le petit-déjeuner est médiocre ; 3 tranches de pain blanc, un œuf dur, confiture/beurre et un thé (pas à volonté). Parfois le cuisinier antipathique accepte de faire une omelette, mais pas pour tous les clients.
Le couloir et les chambres étaient lavés sommairement, mais il faudrait de grosses rénovations et un nettoyage en profondeur (toiles de poussière, meubles poussiéreux, fenêtres qui ne se ferment pas).
Deux nuits sur les trois, il y a eu une fête à côté qui se finissait à 2h du matin, nous avons dû changer de chambre.

Deco de la chambre un peu passée, aurait besoin d'un bon coup de peinture 🫟 mais pour le prix,il faut pas être exigeant.
