    Had a really pleasant stay! The hotel was nice and clean, and the breakfast spread was pretty good too. The à la carte service was a bit slow, but nothing major. Our driver was super helpful and polite — just a little mix-up between the agency and the Travel Triangle coordinator. Overall, a good exp
    erience! Adiyogi statue visit was a surreal experience .
