Only
one step at entrance. Many room at ground floor. But small and
Indian sanitation. My wife got a discount 800 Rupee to 550 Rupee.
Sheets were so dirty, so we requested to change them. Restaurant was
not good. Guests were only Indian. Bad location. We had better stay
near Taj Mahal. Some economy hotel have ground floor room. |

stayed at a waiting space at airport. I could sleep using a long

Famous hotel. Incredible
cost performance. I think twice is OK. This price is Non
AC room. Two elevator. A big hole is wonderful.
This hotel opened in 2000. Restaurant Bar on ground floor was so
busy and delicious. Outside first food restaurant was busiest in the
city. Strongly recommend.

I was so tired, so I decided a hotel soon. It was a fault. Jaipur is
the capital of Rajasthan. A popular tourist destination and business
city for Indian. Many economy hotel around a bus terminal. This hotel
gave me a room behind reception because of non-step. That was for
workers. No TV. No hot shower. They said 450 Rupee first. I saw a
price list at reception after. It said 350 Rupee / standard room . So
I got discount. Bad hotel.

Many guest house on Station street, but all the hotel have many stairs
in front. I found a clean hotel. I asked the price. It was very
cheap. Hotel worker and a guard carried me up five steps in front. The
sanitation was very good, not India. They have also 400 Rupee, 600
Rupee room. Next to hotel, very fashionable restaurant bar. Also
strongly recommend. I ordered a charted taxi to Aganta, Ellora,
Aurangabad. It cost 1400 Rupee. They said a final price at first. Very
honestly and kind. Best hotel in
my Indian journey.

Good location. Only Indian guests. Room were cleaned up, but dark and
smell. One step in front. Some room on ground floor. Indian toilet
only. I arrived early morning by over night bus and left late night by
overnight train. So I just used an afternoon sleep and took a shower.
I did not look for other hotels.

I arrived very late night. One Indian man
guided me to find an accessible room. We finally found a room on
ground floor. He wanted a tip. I thought hotel has already paid to
him, but he wanted it. I paid 20 Rupee. Not money, I do not like his
attitude. Hotel was so bad. Very dirty, no hot water, no soap, high
price. My bad choice. |

No room because of high season. Many

Finally I found a guest house but the price was unbelievable. It
seems 300 Rupee room. No hot water. Sand road . I do not recommend
Kovalam beach. Everything high. There are a lot of beach in the
world. |

I arrived late night by train. All middle class hotels around station
were full. Many economy hotels were available but many stairs and
dirty. One Indian helped me to look for a room for an hour. He finally
showed me this room and got 20 Rupee from hotel. Some stairs in front.
2 room on ground floor. Elevator available. Too noisy on street.

Many YMCA hotel in India, but it does not mean a good hotel. At night

Only one step in front. Good service, but old and dirty. My wife was

Elevator, but sometimes broken or power

comes. Indian toilet. 2 hours walk around the city to find a hotel.
I visited more than 20 hotels. Almost upstairs. No any other choice.
"Hotel Annapulna" has an elevator and very clean. It
seems the best for wheelchair, but full booking.
