FC Road is close by, so there are plenty of places to eat and shop. Roopali restaurant is a good pick for South Indian food. The hotel is also around 900m from Deccan Gymkhana metro station and about 950m from Chhatrapati Sambhaji Garden metro station. From Pune railway station, you can take the metro to Deccan Gymkhana, then walk or get an auto. On both of my stays, the rooms and bathrooms were clean, and the sheets were fresh. I stayed for three days the first time, and when I came back recently the place still felt neat and well maintained. They offered early check-in based on availability on my first visit, and again at around 9:30 AM on the recent one, which was really helpful. Breakfast is free for guests, though I didn’t try it, so I can’t speak to the taste. The staff were friendly and helpful. It’s a comfortable, budget-friendly option in this area, and after returning it now feels a bit like a second home in Pune.

The rooms are spacious, and the staff are well behaved. Service was really good, and I loved having breakfast included with the booking every day.

It was like a horror scene in the room, with cockroaches everywhere. The bedsheets were soiled, and even the washroom wasn’t clean.

For the price, it’s a decent hotel, and it connects well to different parts of Pune. Just don’t expect much in the way of ambience.
