AI SummaryAn AI-summarised snapshot of real guest reviews
The property boasts a prime beachfront location near Mahabalipuram temples, attentive staff, and a serene environment, complemented by a satisfying complimentary breakfast. However, guests consider it overpriced, especially considering its basic rooms and bathroom amenities.

A not so good experience indeed. Stayed for a night here recently. There were problems with the flow of water from Washbasin as well as from the shower which was certainly not user friendly. The service level at the restaurant was below par. The staff were not courteous (not all of them) and were refusing to serve basic items, even though it was not crowded enough unlike morning breakfast timings. The team leader though was extremely gracious and provided all the items which were refused earlier by his colleagues. Looks like the staff were tired and exhausted. It was certainly not value for money given the tariff of 4 stars. Overall very bad experience don't book this one.

Horrible place. Shabby and dirty rooms. Didn’t feel safe. Certainly not for family. Don’t get fooled by all the fake positive reviews. My family after checkin decided to move out immediately. The experience was so bad. You have much better places in that budget in Mahabalipuram.

I was disappointed with the condition of the property. It seemed quite run down. There was no WiFi access in the bedrooms, only the reception. Position next to the sea was excellent.

We initially made a reservation for a premier sea front room. When we checked in, hotel did not give us the room what we paid for and put us in a room with no windows. Blankets were torn and with mold, stains on pillow cases, room not clean, stains on toilet seat, and room walls damaged with water leak. When we asked the hotel staff to change the room and arguing that this is not the room what we paid for, they could find a premier sea front room. That room also had issues with torn blankets, stains on pillow cases, and room not clean. After paying tips to hotel staff, they could take care of these issues. The positive things about our stay is excellent food, and a great location with direct access to the beach. We had dinner and breakfast. Both were good. This place has a great potential to become a prime place if the hotel can take care of cleanliness of the rooms and the facilities.

We booked for a premium sea front room. When we checked in, they put in a regular room with no windows. When we asked why, the hotel staff said all rooms are like that. Later we found the blankets were torn, stains on pillow cases, room dirty, and stains on toilet seat. When we argued with the hotel staff that this is not the room we paid for and asked to change the room, and after lots of back and forth, they switched to a true premium sea front room. That room also had issues with stains on pillow cases, torn blankets, and room dirty. The hotel staff could take care of all these when we paid tips. Only positive thing in our stay is excellent food and a great location with direct access to beach, This place has excellent potential to become a prime hotel if the cleanliness can be taken care of. I took pictures as a proof of my comments if someone wants to see.

Property seems to be very old and rooms had smell problem. The garden view rooms are facing each other and you can see group of people partying in front of the room/walkway. Our room was facing the parking area. The area was not maintained very well. You can see pile of garbage near rooms. The area near the entry gate seems to be for garbage and it stinks. The breakfast was okay but other time food service was horrible. The beach is the best part of the stay as you have access to the beach from property. You can only stand near the water and wait for waves to come, but you can enjoy the view. Overall not worth the price. It is a good location but bad service and rooms condition.
