“While its proximity to the New Delhi Railway Station makes it appealing for quick transit, the gap between advertisement and reality seems significant, especially concerning room size and advertised amenities. The location certainly has its benefits for exploring nearby attractions like the Red Fort, but be aware that your expectations need to be in check. This hotel positions itself for budget travelers and families wanting to see the city, however, the extremely negative reviews suggest you to consider other options first.”
