Good location
Location was suitable for my purpose of U.S Visa interview. The transportation arrangements were proper. Had some difficulty getting the room on arrival as it was morning time even though they already had the information about the time of arrival. This was sorted out soon. The condition of the room leaves a lot to be desired. The faucet was leaking all over the bathroom. Room service was good. Overall, good hotel.

Nice
I stayed at this hotel and did like it. It was a comfortable room. The only issue was, when I asked the hotel service to bring a tablet for headache, it took over 2 hours to buy just 5 tablets.

Need to improve on room service
I was here for weekend. Overall experience was good . But, I felt that they could improve on room service and provide orders early rather than an hour late.
