Hotel Amax Inn

The location is good and central in PaharGanj. Metro and Bazaar not too far away. They have a pretty late check out at 12.00 which was great. The food, served on their rooftop space, was good and the space was nice to relax. An ok place if you stay one night on your way to the airport.

The linnen (sheets, towels, even curtains) need a good deep clean. They are grey in stead of white and the blanked was dingy. Stains on the sheets even though they have been laundered (we checked!) The hotel is run by what looks like a group of friends / guys who were all very friendly, but it was a constant sausage fest in the lobby as they hang around there all day. Rooms need medium to severe maintenance - showerhead was broken and had to be replaced, a very old and dingy AC where we ended up cleaning the filter ourselves. The fan was brown from dirt. We did have a budget room, so I cannot say if the more expensive rooms are better... "free toiletries" actually means a tiny bar of soap so was happy we had our own shampoo. All in all the place needs TLC and a good deep clean - there was dust everywhere in our room. The rooftop restaurant is not an actual restaurant and it takes at least 30 minutes for them to bring your order from elsewhere (though the food was good!), this includes drinks, so be aware of this. It felt a little like the guys running it are not aware of traveler needs. This was not our first time in Delhi and I have to say even though we slept fine, there are better places to stay for your budget.
