We spent around 6k/per night. No car parking, we had to park our car on the main road. Breakfast was a disaster, as they only provide Idly, Dosa, Poori, Some sour fruits (pineapple and watermelon), Bread and Omelette. The bathroom had no curtain / door, the water spills out near the washbasin after you shower. The size of the rooms are small compared to the money spent.

Not worth the money”

The room that I stayed in was small, and had no windows ( just a fixed glass that looked into the corridor). It got stuffy in the night and the light from the corridor shone into the room, making it a very uncomfortable night's sleep. The pillows were also too high for comfort. There wasn't any wardrobe or other storage place. Therefore, INR 9000/- plus was too high an amount for said room. The bathroom, room, and linen were clean. The breakfast was average. There was no dedicated parking area. We parked on the road outside the property. Though there was hotel security to look after the vehicle.
