Rooms are below average and the rooms were not clean enough.Worst experience regarding the food service, no range in food menu available, even portions are less, extreme midmanagement. Not at all worth the price. Will not recommend anyone.

Substandard place with a no-good manager

1/5

Substandard place with a no-good manager, located somewhat opportunely by Amartya Sen's house. On the evening of 10th March '23, we chanced upon this lodge run by an uncouth excuse of a man named Tinku. He imposed himself upon us when we were evidently tired from the journey and simply wanting an uncomplicated check-in. After thoroughly frying our brains with a long lecture on the lodge that didn't look like anything much but just unkempt and ill-maintained, Tinku handed us the keys to a smallish room with a bed covered in tattered linen and a couple of dust-covered grimy furniture thrown about. Room condition was inadequate for a hefty nightly charge of INR 1500, but we decided to take it anyway since we were extremely tired. At this point, Tinku pocketed an advance of Rs. 500 from us, still shooting off his mouth like anything about the unconvincing legacy of the place, that of hosting "legendary" artists like singer Iman Chatterly or chattaraj or whatever and other such greats. Just when we turned to leave for our room, looking forward to finally getting the insufferable clinger off our backs, he started nagging for an assurance of us staying the next day as well, why? because he supposedly had to turn away very important customers for our sake. This, for us was the tipping point. When we demanded to check out right away, Tinku started randomly gasbagging about how he had been a student at Vishwabharati's Sangeet Bhavan and therefore a mighty bhoddorlok who can be trusted. After tinkering with our moods some more, he finally returned the advance so we could leave. Avoid at all costs!

Poor Experience

It is less hotel and more rented house. The behavior of the owner is horrible. He is unprofessional person in this business. Food quality is poor and overrated. The only good thing is its location only.

Poushali Lodge- Place of bitter experience

What a bad experience I had..Uff. terrific. Only one positive point is its location. Other than that I am disappointed very much on each and every factors- 1. Before our journey I started our communication through WhatsApp. The Owner named "Tinku" just denied whatever he promised to server us like evening snacks, coffee. 2. Room condition is very poor and AC is not working properly. Telephone is not working, so every time I had to go their reception from 2nd/3rd floor to ask our requirement. 3. I visited lots of places in India and among them spent day in different kinds of hotels and homestay. I have not seen any places where food for under 5 years child are being charged. Normally we see up to 5years free,5-10years 50% and above 10years full. But they charged us for food of 3years child. 4. All staff including owner is very lazy and their attitude like as if they are giving us job - actually I think they have not a single quality how to behave with guest and running hotels. 5. Food is overpriced and test less-We got same items every day in lunch. It was very difficult to take. 6. I visited Santiniketan 7/8 times. This time I stayed in this lodge and got most terrible experience. Lots of work I have to write, but don't want to spend my word for this horrible experience and extremely bad service. I don't have option to give Zero star, that is why I have to give 1 star.

Actually there was no from number in the ground floor. So it's very confusing which room r u booked . Bedsheet and rug of our room is very bad conditions. Bathroom lock system are already broken. The main door of room are very difficult for open and close also. There was only one charging point and that's also outside of bed.and there was a TV but no recharge. And price rate of food very high. Rate of room also very high.
