The
only
good
thing
about
this
place
is
Mrs.
Mahalakshmi,
the
hotel
receptionist
who
is
very
kind,
friendly
and
helpful.
She
tries
her
best
to
keep
running
this
place.
One
can
continue
to
stay
here
only
because
of
her
nice
nature.
She
is
the
only
person
who
will
get
things
done
for
you
when
you
request
for.
Everything
else
is
bad
here.
We
stayed
for
4
days,
they
did
not
provide
room
cleaning
on
the
first
two
days,
eventually
got
it
done
only
after
Mrs.
Mahalakshmi
got
to
know
that
rooms
were
not
cleaned
for
so
many
days.
On
the
third
day,
we
ourselves
took
the
mop
and
swept
the
rooms.
When
she
got
to
know
others
did
not
get
the
rooms
cleaned
even
after
requesting
she
got
quiet
upset
and
ensured
thorough
cleaning
immediately.
TV
never
worked,
we
had
to
fill
our
own
water
bottles,
there
is
no
room
service
even
for
water.
The
intercoms
don't
work.
There
is
no
provision
for
breakfast.
If
you
need
coffee,
this
kind
lady
would
make
it
for
you
if
she
is
still
on
duty.
Guruvayur
is
pilgrim
place.
For
one
morning
we
needed
hot
water
for
bath
by
5
AM
and
aske
the
person
on
duty.
The
gentleman
took
us
to
a
spot
where
the
geyser
switch
is
there
and
asked
us
to
turn
it
on
around
2
hours
before
we
need
hot
water
by
ourselves!!!
For
checking
in,
we
reached
around
7
AM,
there
was
one
guy
who
gave
us
the
keys
and
asked
us
to
go
to
the
rooms,
alas!
The
doors
don't
have
room
numbers!
He
probably
expected
us
to
know
by
miracle
of
lord
to
know
the
room
numbers.
It
was
pitch
dark
as
no
lights
were
turned
on.
Anyway,
I
entered
the
room
again
pitch
dark.
The
keyhole
for
current
switch
is
not
immediately
next
to
entrance
door.
Since
we
had
no
idea
where
the
switch
was
I
had
to
run
to
reception
again
to
ask
him
about
switch.
Then
by
grace
of
lord
guruvayurappan
the
guy
got
up
and
walked
to
room
to
show
the
switch.
Then
was
a
hunt
for
other
stuffs
like
towel,
soap
etc.
That's
better
not
to
be
discussed.
Thankfully
Mrs.
Mahalaxmi
came
by
9
and
things
began
to
move
smoothly
thereafter.
The
place
has
no
provision
for
food.
Once
I
ordered
the
food
and
requested
the
person
on
duty
for
cutlery
and
plates,
they
were
the
dirtiest
cutlery
I
had
ever
seen.
The
location
of
this
place
is
fantastic.
Very
close
to
railway
station.
Rooms
are
spacious.
Have
a
beautiful
idol
of
Krishna
where
one
can
meditate.
Surroundings
are
good,
but
maintenance
is
very
poor.
The
owners
must
pay
attention
to
this
place
and
needs
competent
staff.
The
prices
are
not
cheap,
it
is
at
par
with
other
hotels
and
resorts
in
the
area,
but
survice-wise
it
is
terrible.
Stay
here
if
you
are
ready
to
pay
and
mop
the
rooms
yourself
and
fetch
water
yourself!
I
heard
the
owners
are
NRI,
I
have
heard
from
few,
that
some
Indians
abroad
think
of
people
staying
in
India
as
low
grade
citizen
and
these
guys
will
accept
anything.
Just
charge
them
money
and
give
nothing.
This
is
an
attitude
problem.
I
am
not
sure
if
the
owners
have
such
a
mentality
and
not
have
competent
staff.
As
I
said,
the
only
reason
that
keeps
this
place
going
is
the
lady
on
desk.
A
wonderfully
located
resort
can
be
one
of
the
best
sought
after
destination
in
Guruvayur
if
proper
maintenance
and
service
is
provided.
