Most avoidable.
Pros:

The only thing good was that it was right on the river.

Cons:

But the poky rooms with small windows hardly made up for that, nor did the poky balconies which barely fitted two plastic chairs. Many balconies were also at an angle to the river view. And the 10 min walk from the main road (it is down narrow pedestrian gullies) were just filthy with dog-shit & cow-dung! The water supply was silty- probably pumped straight up from the filthy river! And the electricity unreliable!

hier gaan we niet terug
Pros:

de locatie en het uitzicht

Cons:

de kamers, hygiëne, te jong personeel, het onbeleefd vragen van een fooi, het basic ontbijt. het hotel werd onderhouden door enkele heel jonge gastjes die niet echt wisten hoe ze een goed onthaal moeten doen en deftige kamers moeten onderhouden. Het gaf ons het gevoel dat ze door de uitbater uitgebuit werden.

Wonderful, but.....
Pros:

The location could not be better, right on the banks of the river, on one of the largest historical ghats of the old city. I particularly loved the view from the window / balcony of my excellent room, and the visiting monkeys that showed up regularly three times a day on my balcony for bananas and conversation.

Cons:

The rooftop restaurant needs to be much better managed. Not much that was on the menu was actually available, and the quality of meals offered was very inconsistent. The information given by staff is also not accurate. I was told firmly that the restaurant did not open until 10 AM for breakfast, yet when I went to the roof to take photos of the river, I encountered people fully engaged in having their breakfast at 8:30 AM. This situation is not very encouraging if you have to get to the airport for a mid-morning flight.

Very peaceful and enjoyable stay of 4 days
Pros:

My room 406 with Balcony facing river Ganges and morning sun rise. Friendly Management and staff who promptly attended all issues for customer satisfaction. To be precise, people and customer friendly services.

Cons:

1) Along with room and bathroom, balcony needs to be cleaned everyday.
2) Pillow cases and Towels need to be spotless white. Unfortunately they were over used and not suitable for use.
3) Bath room should have "anti-skid mat".
4) commode in the bathroom was highly stained.
5) Pillow cases, towels and commode should be immediately replaced,

屋上テラスのレストランからの景色も最高、味も最高です。
エアコンの効きはバッチリ、お湯もちゃんと出ます。

Pros:

They send one boy to receive us and take our luggage from the road

Cons:

Our experience was very bad about restaurant service and food quality at Sita. We ordered tea and fritters in the evening and waited for about 45 minutes but tea did not come. When we again called at the restaurant, concerned person told 'idhar time lagta he' ( it takes time here), if you want you can cancel the order. We were getting late, we asked him to keep our order on hold and give us tea when we would return back and they give us the same stale tea and fritters when we came back. It was very bad. We had opted for breakfast at the time of online booking. We experienced the same thing at breakfast too. The concerned person at restaurant was very slow . He gave us two butter toast with tea first and stopped. We were waiting for parantha. After 20-25 minutes he gave us one aloo parantha each to me and my wife and then again stopped. When we asked for one more parantha, he said you will have to again wait for 25 minutes for your second parantha. It was very strange. There was no other guest at the restaurant at that time. Only me and my wife were there in the restaurant for breakfast. We were getting late so we had to left half empty stomach. The restaurant staff head was very bad. He had no manners to talk with guests. No hospitality no etiquettes.
