I may have been a good option before but it's showing it's age, the staff were friendly and kind, the manager was helpfully. Cleanliness was an issue, there were cellular transmitters and microwave links on the top floor within a few meters of the rooms, the internet didn't work they asked you to sit out between the laundry hanging over...

the best thing about the hotel is its location. you can stroll around the mall endlessly and then at the end reach the hotel easily without and climb up or down. This is just 5 minutes walking behind the church.

We took cab from hotel desk only to have a trip of kufri, naldera, mashobra. It was also gud, driver was helping, nice and guided us about different places as well. Overall gud... More
