Checked in only cos we were really tired and had no patience to search for other places. Location of this property is pretty good, no complains in that regard.

The price is more mid range than budged while the rooms are the contrary. Its quite dity. The sheets of the beds need a good wash and the bathrooms need to get... More

We just had a trip to Madurai and stayed in what is possibly the worst guesthouse in the country - the Hotel West Tower. The guidebook recommended it as being clean, friendly and close to the temple - about as inaccurate as possible. I've travelled on a tight budget in India on and off over 15 years, paying between 30... More
