FabExpress Kalyan - Hotel in Sayajiganj, Vadodara — Hotel in Gujarat

Good budget stay. Recommend for short and solo trip. Stayed there for 2 nights. However room was only apparently clean, there was dust which seems accumulated over a long time, bathroom washbasin tap was loosen, toilet flush not up to the mark.

Also, I left the room around 9am and when I retun to hotel at 4pm, room was not even cleaned. (7 hours), so on my return I told the reception staff to get it cleaned ASAP and I was waiting outside room at reception.

After multiple times, finally they able to found cleaning staff and this was truly unacceptable that housekeeping staff while cleaning the room watching TV, me as a customer waiting at receptions but staff is busy watching TV, I caught him two times watching TV. I have to wait 30 minutes outside for staff to watch TV & clean the room, that too despite my repeated requests they clean.

Inside room and bathroom there were flies and mosquitoes, but no repellent available in the room.

Also, morning breakfast, when I went there was no one at restaurant, also usually morning I find there is no fixed person at reception so we have to keep looking for to find manager or any staff for checkout or anything. And tables at restaurant were also not cleaned, most of tables and chair has left over food. So, hygiene and maintenance is not at all to appreciate.

So, if some is okay with such uncomfortable things can stay here otherwise would not recommend.

I hope, either FabHotel or the local owner/management focuses on and improve...

Positives.

The room was large in size. Room was clean. Room had all the basic facilities one needed for an overnight stay. Breakfast was complimentary. Food prepared was fresh and delicious. We specially liked the tea. Kudos to the staff who prepared it. Hotel was just walking distance from the Railway Station and State Transport Bus Stand. Hotel was in an area, where there were plenty of local food and Street Shops in the vicinity. Bathroom has hot and cold water. 9.Room had a balcony alongwith it. Room also had a window to let fresh air in.

Negatives.

The hotel is in a busy street intersection. We couldn't have a good night sleep due to heavy traffic and people talking loudly. The window nor the room is sound proof. We were repeatedly disturbed in the sleep. We gave our keys at the reception to get our room cleaned, while we were away. When we returned back in the evening, we were shocked to find that the room was not cleaned. The facilities failed to clean up the room. We had to tell the staff to get our room cleaned in the evening, which they did but after repeated reminders. This was a huge let down. The room did not have kettle, complimentary water...

This place is clean and nice to stay but the owner is rude. I had informed them I work till late night and sleep during the day so when I put DND tag, please don't knock and wake me up but they woke me up almost everyday for room cleaning. I denied once or twice. But later again it happened...and I let them clean the room. But the housekeeper didn't even collect the garbage. What kind of cleaning it was. And the owner said, we know you are wokring till late night but we need to clean the rooms as after checkout, if the room is dirty, it becomes difficult to clean. So he was worried about that and not about keeping it clean when someone is staying in the room. They charge Rs. 40 for tea and tea was not so good. Inspite of telling, need ginger tea, I never found ginger. They have this policy of not letting the guests visit the people staying at the hotel but it's not mentioned anywhere online while booking and if anyone they find has come to meet you, they speak soo rudely as if the person did some crime by visiting the guest. The reception staff was rude except Parul. She is a sweet receptionist. Overall this hotel is ok to stay for a day or 2. But would not...
