We had a horrible experience at this property. Arrived very late in the evening straight from the airport. Checked in, showered (the towels were very run down and the toilet leaked upon flushing) and found bugs in the bed and on the wall. Called the front desk to ask for a new room, were told that the hotel was sold out, and that house keeping was on its way. After waiting and waiting for house keeping, went downstairs and were offered a new room (so, we were previously lied to). That room also had bugs in the bed. We had no choice but to leave the hotel and search for new accommodations at 1.30 am. Of course, since we had to pay a walk in rate at the new hotel, the cost to us was significantly higher, but worth not sleeping in a bug-invested bed. Very disappointed as we had stayed at this hotel previously pre-COVID and had a positive experience. We asked for a refund and were denied. AVOID AT ALL COSTS.

Friendly staff but room subpar
Grand Residence should only be a 2 star hotel. I must say the customer service was good and the food at the restaurant was fantastic. On the other hand, the room was very basic and wasn’t the cleanest. The shower was lukewarm at best. Also there is really nothing for a tourist to do in this area.

close to what i had to do in India, thats it.
Very disapointed, The gym which looked great in photo's was not operating at all, construction work being carried out at all hours and the sound of hammer drills echoed through the whole hotel. The windows are paper thin and the street noise was very loud and kept me up every night. Front desk staff profiting of me when i needed an taxi telling me the fare was a certain amount and then paying the drive less. would i stay there again NO, would i recommend to anyone NO.
