It''s a real find in Delhi, this place. We were recommended it by a fellow traveller, and it beats anything else in Delhi for the same price - I will certainly stay here again when I go back to the city.

The hotel cost us about £3 each, per night. For this, we got a double room, which was air-conditioned, and clean. The air-con wasn’t so noisy that it kept us awake either, which is not always the case in Delhi where you often must chose between being too hot to sleep, and it being too noisy to sleep! The sheets were so new that my friend had to remove a price sticker from hers, which gave the place a very fresh feel. The room had an attached bathroom, with a shower that not only worked, it provided hot water to boot. There''s a good restaurant on site, serving mostly Chinese food, with a few Indian dishes also. They had put one "Continental" dish on the menu, an omlette, which I would avoid, as the chef is definitely better at the Chinese fodder. It makes a nice change in you’ve been in India for a while, eating only Indian food.

The hotel is about 20 minutes north of the Red Fort in old Delhi, by motor rickshaw, which will cost you about £1. The advantage of the location is that the hotel is a lot quieter than the travellers'' ghetto in old Delhi, and you might actually get some sleep at night!
