Not satisfactory
Stayed for 2 days in 2 rooms, toilets were not clean with bad smell coming from water outlets, uncomfortable spring mattress, overall poor maintenance, food was not good except few local fish dishes. Only plus was the pleasing attitude of staff.

Worst Experience - Not Even Worth One Star
First thing we noticed in the room was mold all over the ceilings. The room smelled of mold. Towels smelled of fungus. Shower doors were missing. Toilet seat was broken and dislocated. Sinks do not drain. They tried to give us bed sheets covered in stains, we repeatedly asked for clean sheets, eventually had to settle for moderately dirty. This hotel completely ruined our one night in Alleppey. The room safe is not even fixed to the wall, what is the point of having a safe when someone can walk off with it! The entire property is old and lacks maintenance, the staff seem to think this is OK for advertising an international destination. We only felt dirty and sick staying here, and wanted to leave as soon as possible. We had the manager come down and he tried to justify the conditions by saying it was the busy season and they were booked back to back. What kind of excuse is this! The only thing the manager offered was a complimentary dinner, they did not attempt to fix the problems or change the rooms.

Good stay
Small but good property and staffs are willing to help but lack of management and leadership, surrounding and rooms could be maintained a little more better. Food is good but way too excited expensive.

Good hotel on the back waters!
This hotel is right on the back waters - very wide frontage. Rooms are spacious and clean. The bathroom was very clean, with toiletries, towels etc.... We had dinner @the hotel which was reasonably good. Complimentary breakfast was really nice with a good supply of fresh fruits etcc... The hotel staff are extremely polite, welcoming and cooperative. From the reception to the end of our stay, we were very happy with their service. However the pond is filthy to say the least!! Full of dirt! Is it so difficult to clean it? The swimming pool is past its maintenance date for sure - coz the water was dirty and the tiles had come off / broken etc... Infact I cut my toes on there. With a little tidying up, this place is great

Great place for Kerala getaway
The rooms are well appointed and clean. Breakfast buffet and other dining menu was quite good. Staff was courteous and helpful. location is a bit away from main attractions however if you are looking to get away from the noise and chaos, this is a great place to relax and unwind.

Swimming pool was too much chlorinated and could damage eyes if not wearing swimming glasses. Bed was too soft . So could not sleep properly.
