We felt welcomed as soon as we arrived and the staff we happy to help with any questions we had. The chill space is so serene and the option to head to the roof top is perfect for sunset. The property is absolutely beautiful! Light, airy, beautifully restored, they’ve kept the charm of the old 50s building perfectly. It feels like a safe and cosy homestay. The room was cool comfy and clean. Would absolutely recommend for anyone staying in Chennai. Great location too.
