Great value, good location, very clean. It doesn't have running hot water, but they bring buckets of hot water. No heat in winter, it was cold at night in December, but would be the perfect place at other time during the year.

Kind of in a grubby area but for the money no need to complain. Monkeys were hopping all over the place kind of cool at first but got old fast.I would say its o k for a night.

we booked this hotel with Agona, and got a very cheap deal. I booked as i had seen pictures of the Taj from its roof but didnt realise exactly where it was ,my word couldnt have been closer to the Taj.
