Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
While the property was in a narrow lane (very Varanasi like), room was spacious, bed comfortable and amenities top class. You would feel a sense of history (250 year old property, owned by legendary braj bhasha writer) but at the same time a sense of being at home as the current management takes great care of your comfort.

This is in a great location, but the room they gave me had some serious mold and made me sick. When I told them this they were helpful and moved me to a new room. Overall, the place is pretty dirty and could use a ton of work, but the staff was great.

The room was on ground level and the window was too close to garbage to leave open.
