Foreigners beware.
When I checked in, I was told, "We only accept Indians."
Other reviews had mentioned that non-Indian nationals were allowed, so I thought I'd be able to make a reservation and there wouldn't be any problems,
but that was the case, so I asked for a refund.
However, after waiting a few minutes, I was told that I was only allowed to stay for one night, under certain conditions, perhaps because my visa was for residents.
It's a minor location, so the average tourist might not stay there, but I wanted to warn you just in case.
As you'd expect from an Indian hostel, it wasn't built that old, but everything was unsanitary.
As all the reviews have said, the building smells bad overall.
The room smelled like sewage.
The bathroom door was poorly fitted and wouldn't close at all, so there was no way to avoid it.
The sheets were rough with shoe marks on them.
The linens were also dirty.
The bathing bucket was slimy and disgusting.
All that was left of the TV was a warped TV stand and the receiver (as shown in the photo), and the top of the closet had come off and was warped.
How could something have been handled like that?
It was all a mystery.
There were tea bags, instant coffee, and mugs, but no kettle.
The location was a plus.
The beach is about a 10-minute walk to the left after leaving the hotel.
The lush green road lined with luxury homes was also nice.
I was looking forward to a nice beachfront cafe, so the access there was perfect.
I wouldn't stay here again, but it was a perfect example of the "cheap means bad" mentality that I would never choose even if I could.
It was a hotel that reminded me of what it felt like to be a backpacker, for the first time in a long time.
