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,

Bad experience.
Pros:

Just one thing that they send their boy to receive us from the road as the hotel is very inside from the road and the streets are very small.

Cons:

The restaurant staff was very bad. The food is very bad. The person at restaurant had no manners to talk with guests. No hospitality. No cleanliness. The restaurant service is very very slow. Don't have your sugar medicine until they serve you food.

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.

Pros:

L’hotel si affaccia sul Gange, si mangia molto bene in terrazza guardando i Gath. La stanza era spaziosa e comoda, l’ascensore una vera comodità. Il personale molto gentile e disponibile.

Pros:

I booked a room for four days with a view of the Ganges and got a room with a balcony overlooking the Ganges, something I'd never dreamed of. The entire hotel staff was very helpful. I wholeheartedly recommend it. This is my second stay in Varanasi. If I ever return, I'll definitely stay at the Sita.

Cons:

there could be access to YouTube or more English-language channels.
