Rooms were spacious, building is new, Bed Sheets and Pillow covers were new and clean

Flush in the Bathroom was leaking, Once the room was changed the bathroom in the other room was made within the room by covering with Aluminum panels. Half of the window was within the room and half in the bathroom. The part inside the bathroom had transparent glass covering and it was not even covered with a curtain. I had booked an AC room and got one but was later told by Reception person that the Manager has told that Rs.1000 more would need to be paid because it's an AC room while the booking is for Non-AC room. We anyway did not have to stay for the Night as we had to catch the train same evening. When we told this then the Manager agreed not to take extra charge. The reception person kept on reminding us that why were we not leaving, although I had already told them that we will leave at 7.30 p.m. So this was very shocking for us that despite doing the AC Room booking, they were asking for more rental because it was an AC room and were very rude to remind us to leave early although we had booking for the entire night. There was no provision for drinking water. When we called the Reception person and asked for paid water bottle, they said they do not have this facility but when we went down for check out there was a fridge with Water and Cold drink and they said they can provide it if payment is done. So overall very bad and unprofessional management. One more discomfort for the travellers is that the gate which opens on the backside of the building is actually the gate which is on the main road leading to Jagannath Temple but that Gate is always locked and there is no access for people to enter from there. The building's front gate is opposite Narendra tank but this is not told in the address and so no Autorickshaw person knows about this gate and they drop at the back gate which is not opened despite guest's request

Location is near grand road, in the middle between Gundicha and Jagannath s temple. The price is good and I cannot find such bargain during Ratha yatra. My advice is to stay nearby the main festival because Puri is top ranking on the WORST rickswavalas in India.

Dirty, the bathroom had no light in the showers, the young staff was not helpful, well it's from Government. No separate bathroom for women, it's a mix bathroom that is very bad.
