I had a great time staying at a heritage property with traditional steel glasses and tumblers. The hotel facilities, including the pool area, were fabulous. The staff, especially Ms. Sushmita, Ms. Tejaswi, and Mr Rishabh, provided exceptional customer service. The location is perfect for those visiting the US Embassy for Biometrics or interviews.
