Hotel Ajantha
A very old popular hotel , which offers room at very cheap rates.
My experience More than 20 days stay.
Pros:
Located near the city center.
It is located on MG road , Bangalore. Almost midway between airport and railway station(Majestic).
Very Cheap
For the location , it is very cheap. The tariff starts at Rs 425 per day (plus taxes).
Parking Space It has ample car parking space. But if any function is being held in the hotel (marriage etc), parking can be a problem.
Good service
Cons:
Food is not good
Food is ok ... but the variety is less. Most of the dishes in menu (esp breakfast) , wont be available. North Indian food here is bad , its South Indian North Indian food ... and most of the dishes are quite oily.
South Indian food is OK.
Poor Maintenance
The place is not maintained properly. The electrical wiring seems to be atleast 20 years old .. and in some places it looks like it is going to come off ! .
Old stuff
Most of the things in the room are very old .. eg some rooms have heavy steel buckets ... I wonder if they can be seen anywhere else !
Difficult to get a room
It is very difficult to get a room there ... it is completely occupied most of the time.
Another problem that I faced was bed bugs... but we got the room changed as soon as another room was available.
