Reviews of Sumanjay Homestay

31 January 2012 Jenny would recommend this property

Liked: it's near Halasuru station. It's clean and the beds are comfortable. During breakfast you get to meet other people who stay here. There's wifi connection but you have to pay.

Disliked: The place can be really hard to find. make sure you note the directions and landmarks if you're taking an auto there. Every morning around 6-7am there's this guy who shouts really loud (maybe selling stuff) in the neighborhood. I was expecting it to be a quiet area.

Liked: The owners are a very nice and help where they can. Air India lost our baggage and their help contributed a lot to the recovery. There is a very good restaurant (Ruchi) closeby which you should check out for one evening at least.

13 February 2011 Claire would recommend this property

Liked: Really friendly owner and nice long-staying travellers to get tips from! A bit out of the way but close to MG Road and Church St (lots of eating and shopping options), but a bit of a hike to sights etc. Big rooms, immaculate bathrooms and quiet location! Breakfast included and cheap (but slow) internet. I would recommend Sumanjay!

Disliked: Distance to sights/activities.

09 February 2010

Liked: The Hostel was central and in a safe area. But after two nights a had insect bites all over me so I think there were some kinds of insects in the matress or in the room. The stuff is friedly, but the owner trys to charge extra for everything. E.g. "you can do the landry in the bathroom- 100 Rupees" or "i can call you a taxi to the Airport- extra charge for me and for the phonecall". So after two days a felt like a walking dollar sign.

26 June 2009 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: Though I arrived at midnight, the owner received me with her gentle smile. She cooked my breakfast. That's the most delicious dish of all I've ever eaten in India. If I have a chance to go to Bangalore next time, I will stay here.

11 May 2009 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: A lovely place to stay, and very nice hosts who take care of you and will help you whenever you need something, or who are there just for a small chat.The rooms are simple, but clean and with all facilities required. The (mainly Indian style) Breakfast is good and tasty (thanks, Sumathi!). And in case something is really missing, Sumathi and Jay will help you further. The location is rather calm, but still in the middle of a nice quarter of Bangalore with everything needed in daily life just around the corner (shops, banks, restaurants, travel agency, laundry, ...), and MG Road area is still in walking distance (15min).If you want to stick to western style of living, then better go to one of the international standard hotels, but if you are ready and eager to experience and also live Indian life, then this is the right place for you. I myself enjoyed my 3 weeks stay very much!
