I found the hotel to have one standout feature: its excellent dining options, especially the Veg food at their restaurant. I really enjoyed the Vada Sambar and Masala Dosa, which are must-tries. However, the limited parking can be a hassle, especially during peak times. Overall, it's a good spot for grabbing a meal, but be prepared for some frustrating moments if you arrive in a car.

Unfortunately, my experience was marred by rude and indifferent staff, unhygienic rooms infested with cockroaches, and outdated fixtures that made the property feel run-down. Overall, it's a lesson in how not to operate a hotel, and it definitely needs a major overhaul to improve the customer experience.
