A GREAT STAY - VALUE FOR MONEY
Pros:

I had the opportunity of staying in this hotel with my family for three nights (21st to 24th April).
I am happy to have taken the wise decision of staying here.
We were given Room-303 for our stay.
It made our stay very comfortable and safe with excellent staff, good restaurant, clean & spacious room with all facilities such as electric kettle, neat linen, sufficient supply of toiletries, bottled drinking water, wi-fi etc.
All the services such as housekeeping, room service etc were prompt and appreciable.
The food supplied in the in-house restaurant was of good quality.
Despite the election restraints the hotel was able to maintain their food supply uninterrupted.

The hotel is centrally located at T. Nagar, a commercial centre, in Chennai.
This hotel caters to both business and leisure travellers.
The hotel is conveniently placed with easy access to renowned shopping stores and many other important centres.
The in-house restaurant “Subhodayam” offers multicuisine apart from Andhra cuisine.
This restaurant is compact and comfortably located in the ground floor.
There is a rooftop bar “Sudaka” to entertain willing guests.
This hotel suits our budget with great comforts.
Through this review We would like to record our sincere thanks to all the staff particularly the reception executives for their excellent hospitality.
Recommended for a safe comfortable family stay.
It is a great budget stay at Chennai

Cons:

the corridor carpets could be renewed as the current one is worn-out and smelly.
