Getting there
Somewhat walkable
Places to stay are graded on a 0-100 scale. The higher the grade, the easier it is for travelers to find restaurants and things to do within walking distance.
We were here at this hotel on 19th January, 2020. This is a very goid hotel. It's situated at the heart of Chennai on Anna Selai, and is absolutely well-connected, being only 30 minutes or so from airport and appx. 10 minutes away from Chennai Central Station.
Room rates are very economical, and we got a suite room at a vety less rate. The (suite) rooms were very big, with a hall, a kitchen, a bedroom, a closet area and bathroom. The room had 2 TVs. The rooms were also very clean.
The food at the in-house restaurant was also very good and light as well. Overall, we were very happy with our stay here and would happily recommend it.
The only problem would be that the entrance is via a very small lift, that might not be convenient to everyone.

Pros: Good sized Rooms. Clean Room and toilet with neat and clean bed linen and towel. Toiletries were shampoo, soap and body lotion though expected more. Breakfast spread was good. Location is also good. House keeping staffs were excellent and prompt in updating room condition. Cons: Front office staffs need to be more customer friendly. Restaurant staffs are average, could be better. Restaurant pricing bit heavier on pocket. Revision requested. Comment: I am satisfied and happy with my stay in the property. I will come back.

Only visit if you don't have any other option. Don't go on aesthetics... This place looks good online however the room has Cockroaches..its smelly and they don't clean the room properly. On our second day the room was not cleaned until late afternoon we had to call them Staff doesn't know English well and they don't understand what you want to communicate. They give us one drinking glass on day one and they never changed it almost for a week. Bathroom has water logging and they don't even clean bathroom properly.. The hotel looks big but it just has two floors. There was construction going on and we complained about it then they stopped but staff doesn't mind any problem with customers.. They don't even apologies or ask for feedback.. Totally waste of money and time

We booked a Suite room, as our stay was with kids. The Suite room is very big, Better than suite room at branded hotel chains. It was a five star experience to us. Bathroom had a jacuzzi too. Food served in restaurant was also good. Ala Carte option is better than buffet. Staff and room service was also good. I had appointment to US consulate. This hotel provided good proximity to US Consulate, Marina Beach, etc. My family enjoyed stay in Suite room.

SUPER clean hotel and friendly professional well trained staff. Great location but a bit noisy outside, lots of restaurants and shops within walking distance, close to the beach but not a clean beach! A big room, great hot shower, A/C and a fan. New hotel, comfortable large bed, daily complimentary water and a newspaper,
No fridge ion the room, only a tiny window in my room and it did not open, no fridge, a 4* hotel but expensive for India I think. Breakfast was too ‘Indian’ and not very good. I got sick one morning after eating eggs which looked strange. I reported a broken toilet seat 4 times and it was not fixed the entire week I was there. No safe box, a school right outside my window which got noisy at times. This hotel is not soundproof at all, lots of noise from the hallways and guests slamming their doors. Paper thin walls, flying insects in room, noisy guests. Prayers from a nearby temple or mosque, no big windows.

The location of this hotel is at the centre of Chennai city, the room is cozy and clean ]in spite of comparatively reasonable tariff. However a breakfast is shortage of variety and there a little choice to take.
