Parth Residency

I wonder how come so many positive review for this property. Based on these reviews,I've booked my stay in this property through Agoda 3 weeks prior to my arrival date. But to my surprise at the check in on my arrival date, there is no executive category room is available. This has been informed to Agoda on the very day of my booking 3 weeks ago itself. I discussed with the owner over phone and he said I have to pay in full for the next category room as they didn't receive payment from Agoda. I told their owner that I didn't receive any communication from Agoda about non availability of room. But he was adamant either I pay in full or leave. I am not a frequent visitor to Ahmedabad and had business appointment in the next hour. So I agreed to pay. But to my surprise when I checked after few days, asked for their communication to Agoda that they had informed about non availability of rooms. To my dismay they showed a copy of receipt of payment from Agoda on that day when I booked. Agoda deducted certain percentage from what I've paid to Agoda and paid to Parth. So they wanted a difference from what they got from Agoda and for the higher category. I've paid the balance amount. Pros: 1.It is on the main Ashram road Cons: 1.When I checked in pillow covers, bed sheet and bed spread was dirty. Asked them to replace. They changed the pillow cover immediately.They removed bed sheet & bed spread, brought back the same as fresh one. 2. Ants on the table and wash room wall 3. Noisy AC that will ruin your sleep 4. The owner is a cheat and certainly rip you by unethical means if you book a base category room Suggest travelers never ever try even for a night's stay.
