Nice quiet small hotel
Stayed two nights and found the hotel to be generally basic but fine for our needs. Breakfast was a little bland with limited offering but no complaints. Hotel manager was ever so kind and helpful. Mamalla Beach Resort a couple of kilometres north of the village is connected with this hotel and is a nice place (with a pool) to relax and unwind after a morning of temple-hopping or shopping. Just take an auto rickshaw for around 100 rps and walk back to the village along the shore. Lovely.

Good value functional accommodation
The room was comfortable with a balcony allowing one to overlook everyday life in Mahallapalapuram. A good swimming pool on the roof, though without steps for getting in and out, and no sunbathing facilities. Helpful and friendly management. Whole building fairly functional without pictures, ornaments etc. and ittle atmosphere. Breakfast poor. 10 minute walk to "tourist" area. Good value. Would use again.

Decrepit hotel
Perhaps the people who own the hotel realise that it need improvement, which is why scaffolding and exposed concrete supporting pillars and beams are scattered throughout the hotel. Hopefully, they will have enough money to renovate the rooms and bathrooms. Also, a restaurant that opens occasionally isn't an inviting prospect. When I asked about breakfast on my way out to eat at their sister hotel, I was told that I could order breakfast through room service. Not very helpful since the telephone in my room didn't work. When I checked out, all I wanted to do was get to a clean bathroom to take a shower and wash Mamalla Inn off me.

Good but with conditions!.
Hotel rooms are good but car parking is a nuisance but safe and no restaurant at site, need to travel to Mamalla beach resort for the included breakfast which is over 3-4 Kms away. Roof top pool is great. Location is not near the beach.

Comfortable, clean and affordable.
This hotel is comfy, clean and very close to beach (walk able distance). Staff are nice and always there to help. Breakfast is good - but got cold by the time we go it. Overall I was looking for a comfortable and clean place close to beach, temple etc. and Mamalla Inn served my purpose. If you are looking for a place to rest, take shower and get going for sightseeing - this place is ideal.

The quality of this hotel and the helpfulness and friendliness of the staff was outstanding. Very central to restaurants and only a few blocks from the beach. Great value for a good price. I booked the room with www.hotels.com a week prior.

I liked the hotel
I enjoyed my stay there. Am a single female traveling on my own and felt very safe. The hotel is in a little side street which makes it nicer not being on the main road. There is a very nice large swimming pool on the roof. I did not use it but fellow guests did and said it was nice.

Excellent value hotel
Highly recommended! The Mamalla Inn is only 9 months old and the rooms are large, clean and comfortable -even a fridge is provided, and free drinking water. Although it is 5 minutes walk to the main restaurant road that is no inconvenience and it means that the hotel is down a quiet back street - no honking horns.The included breakfast is OK - eggs available as well as all the usual Indian items. The staff couldn't do more to help us and were very friendly with their limited English. The swimming pool on the roof is very nice - but it would have been even better with a couple of sunchairs. One strange thing about the pool - there are NO STEPS to exit the pool by - it is around 1.5 metres deep and you must make sure you can pull yourself out before jumping in. I have never before been in a pool with no means of exit!
