Hotel Asha — Hotel in Uttar Pradesh

Although i did not expect much from a Hotel in Kannauj, the description according to a booking website was also incorrect. |When we checked into the room, there were footprints all over the room. Reason: the bathmat placed at entrance to bathroom was soaking wet - we requested for it to be replaced and the room swept clean but it did not happen till 10 pm when i went personally to the reception on the ground floor and literally brought a person up alongwith. Also as detailed in a website - there is no bathrobe available in room and only one bath towel for a room being occupied by a couple (2 people). Never actually got the bathrobe and the second towel also we got post 10 pm after personally went down to reception. |There is a mention that the room has soundproofing which is not true. The main door to the room has a one inch gap from the floor at the bottom making even a slight noise in the corridor clearly heard and also all noise from street outside is easily heard inside the room. Soundproofing is zero. It is mentioned that there is free wifi is available in public places - sure enough there is a wife named Asha Hotel in available wifi list but it is impossible to connect to it as the reception just does not provide the correct password - and no matter how many times you enter the wrong password, you obviously cannot connect. We eventually gave up trying to connect to the wifi. |The geyser installed in bathroom is at a height of 8feet, at ceiling height and is left unplugged, and there is no way anyone can reach there to plug it in. And even after we got it plugged in somehow (again at 10pm) after repeated call for help at the reception, the thermostat is turned all the way down (and that spot is even higher to reach). When we asked for help again to help turn it on, no one “ever” came. |The room was infested with flies and insects and so was the corridor outside the room. |The only good thing was that the linen and the towels were clean. The split AC installed in the room worked good. That’s about it. ||The biggest letdown was the facility / items assured of the website but were never there. Would request you not to misinform users just to...

I can’t believe how disappointing this place is! As travel and food bloggers who've been to countless restaurants across India and abroad, we had high hopes for this spot after two visits in the last three years. But it seems like the management just doesn't care or improve over time. Honestly, it's appalling how little they've done to fix the glaring issues here.||Let me break it down:||1. Food Quality: The food was absolutely disgusting! The taste was awful, and it reeked like rancid oil. How is this even allowed? It’s beyond me. | |2. *Dal Tadka Disaster: We ordered Dal Tadka, and it was practically inedible. The dal was half-cooked, and there was no trace of the usual tempering (tadka). I've had better dal at street vendors. This was the worst I’ve ever had.||3. Prices Are Insane: The prices here are outrageously high considering the poor quality of the food and the location. You’re basically paying for bad food and slow service at a premium. Complete rip-off.||4. Slow Service: Waiting an hour for food? That’s ridiculous! How does it take that long to prepare something so basic? Completely unacceptable.||5. False Advertising on Water:| They claim they’re serving “RO water,” but it’s non-filtered tap water. They’re straight-up lying to customers. Who does that?||6. Rude and Unhelpful Staff: When I complained about the food, they just shrugged it off and said, “This is how we prepare it.” Seriously? No effort to address customer concerns? The staff is cold and unwelcoming.||I really wanted to give this place a chance, but after two visits and zero improvement, I’m done. Don't waste your time or money here. This place doesn't deserve the business...
