underwhelming stay
easy accessslow room servicewilted lettuce
the hotel location was acceptable, providing easy access to nearby attractions.
The room service was slow. i ordered a simple salad, but it took over an hour to arrive. the salad wasn't fresh. The lettuce was wilted and the tomatoes were mushy. i also found the noise levels disruptive. I could hear street noise late into the night, and there were loud noises from other rooms.

This hotel really impressed me. The breakfast buffet was a big hit with many choices. I loved the live cooking stations. They served fresh dosas and omelettes. The gym has water and towels. I liked the clean indoor swimming pool.

empty mini-barmisleading view
i was a bit let down by the lack of attention to detail. our room had a mini-bar , but it was completely empty , it was quite inconvenient. also , the promised mountain view was more of a side view , it was misleading to expect something different.
