ABSOLUTELY HORRENDOUS!! They gave me a room that looked a dungeon basement and smelled of mold. Water dripping from the ceiling and NO WIFI THERE. Instead of giving me a better room I had to pay 50% NORE to get a somewhat “sleepable” room. NO AC AT ALL. I will NEVER EVER stay here again. While my train was late I got there at 2am I wasn’t even offered water (I would’ve paid!). Also YOU CANNOT FIND THE PLACE!! I had to pay a taxi; then a bicycle tour guide AND a police officer to help me locate it! And it’s in a very dangerous looking area. I immediately booked a room somewhere else.
In the old town of varanasi very close to all the action. The biggest drawback was the million bugs that were in the room, which made it very difficult to sleep.
Extremely basic accommodation and definitely not for anyone faint-hearted.
Stayed for one night only as there was no wifi at all, the reception guy explained that they have reached out to the engineer to fix the wifi issue but after waiting for over 14 hours, we decided to try somewhere else with good wifi instead.
Happy that there is no bed bugs for our room and another bonus is that it is walking distance to the river.
