5/5 Partha B. 4 years ago on Google
i
landed
in
Delhi
at
4.30
AM,
fully
expecting
my
Airbnb
host
to
accommodate
my
request
for
early
check-in.
trouble
followed
this
plan
when
i
didn't
see
a
confirmation
of
that.
at
4.30
AM,
i
couldn't
possibly
call
him,
so
i
started
Googling
for
a
cafe
i
could
while
away
a
few
hours
at
till
it
became
decent
to
call
my
host.
ten
or
so
minutes
away
from
the
airport,
Citrus
looked
like
a
good
place
to
work
from
while
i
waited
for
the
sun
to
rise.
cafes
and
restaurants
at
star-rated
hotels
are
polite,
but
sometimes
snooty
when
the
guest
isn't
staying
at
the
hotel
or
asks
for
too
much.
i
decided
to
test
this
theory
with
Citrus.
and
boy,
was
i
pleasantly
surprised!
the
guy
at
the
desk
in
the
night,
Sartaj,
and
the
server,
Kunal,
were
awesome
on
the
phone,
in
person,
and
till
they
ended
their
shift
at
8
AM.
i
stepped
in
with
a
backpack
and
a
stroller,
fully
expecting
a
lukewarm
service
and
resistance
to
my
many
asks.
good
coffee,
some
food,
a
good
Wi-fi
connection,
and
a
power
strip
for
my
many
devices
---
all
of
which
they
got
me.
the
Wi-fi
is
too
expensive
at
βΉ211
an
hour,
so
i
ended
up
using
my
mobile
phone
data,
but
man,
oh,
man,
the
service!
they
sourced
a
power
strip
at
6
AM,
they
gave
me
amazing,
custom-made
coffee
and
a
great
egg-bacon
sandwich
in
minutes,
they
kept
telling
me
to
take
a
break
and
have
the
fries
hot,
and
when
Sartaj
left,
he
handed
me
over
to
Virendra,
who
was
equally
professional
and
warm.
sitting
here
right
next
to
a
pristine
pool
at
10.30,
five
hours
after
i
got
here
without
a
place
to
be,
three
coffees,
two
bottles
of
water,
a
sandwich,
and
several
smokes
later,
i
can
say
this
was
worth
the
βΉ1,500
i
spent,
and
then
some.
in
my
book,
Citrus
wins
the
day
and
a
few
more!
