- Yousouf Ibne Abdulla (1/5): Very poor - Nothing Paid additional Rs 500 for AC which did not work.
Dirty room.
Dirty location.
Bad personnel.
I don't understand how booking.com can accept such places on their site. Be careful because of such hotels the reputation of booking.com is at stake.
For your own comfort don't ho there

- Swapna (8/5): -
- Guest (1/5): Disgusting behaviour by owner - Nothing Worst customer service
- Akshay (1/5): Pathetic expedition and not at all family friendly - I’d like to share my extremely disappointing experience during my recent stay. The overall service and support were highly unprofessional and unsettling.
Despite multiple complaints, both the TV and AC were non-functional, and eventually, I was told that there was an issue with the internal wiring—yet no resolution was provided.
The next morning, I raised multiple complaints regarding the water heater not working, but unfortunately, no action was taken. This left my parents with no option but to bathe in cold water at 5:00 AM, which was completely unacceptable.
To add to the frustration, we were charged an extra ₹700 for a pet, on top of the already paid amount, citing “cleaning charges” without any prior intimation or transparency.
Lastly, despite booking two triple-bed rooms, we were asked to adjust in one triple and one double-bed room, which was not only misleading but also completely unprofessional.
This experience was far from what was promised and expected, and I sincerely hope this feedback will be taken seriously to avoid such incidents for future guests. The entire experience was disappointing and frustrating. Despite repeated complaints, the TV and AC never worked, and I was told it was due to internal wiring issues — but no fix was provided.
The next morning, the water heater didn’t work, and despite raising it multiple times, no one responded, leaving my parents to bathe in cold water at 5 AM.
We were also charged an additional ₹700 for a pet, without any prior notice, and were asked to adjust in a double and triple room despite booking two triple-bed rooms.
Completely unacceptable service — would not recommend.

- Anu (4/5): Disappointing - None..we left the place after seeing the place It's what is mentioned in booking.com
- Hitesh (8/5): Very good - Attentive staff and cozy AC control can be better
- Robin (2/5): Pay a thousand more and stay some place else - Nothing. The only thing to like was that it is in the city of Madurai where I was staying. Oh where to start! For starters, the boy (yes boy) at the reception refused to open the door for my young daughter and wife who were lugging two suitcases and trying to open the hotel door. Secondly, I guess the only place with more mosquitoes would be the Amazon rainforest. The bedding was stained and the towels provided were rougher than sandpaper. The bucket placed in the bathroom was older than Father Time himself and had more scales inside than the surface of a pike island salmon. The AC in the room was loud enough to keep me up all night. The wonderful smell of sewage makes sure that you practise your breathing techniques. And finally the cherry on top was that another boy at the hotel hounding you to leave a 5 star review on Google as you exit.

- Anjana (8/5): Good place nice staff - Rooms and bathroom are clean. Though the bathrooms are very small in double rooms. Mosquitos....rooms are full of mosquitos even though we never opened the window. Funny thing is outside there were no mosquitos.
But the mosquitos were so weak and fragile that they just drop dead even if you woosh them

Located in a pleasant quiet street off a big road
Nice building of the hotel
A veg store next to the hotel A bit too far from the centre for us
3,6 km from Meenakski Temple
Few buses going to the centre/train station we waited ca 20 min and took a tuktuk
Two windows, one going to the corridor, it was a bit too bright in the room, even with navy blue curtains
It would be helpful to have a mosquito net in the window to open the window for the night
- Joshi (10/5): Exceptional - All its good Nothing
- Sundar (2/5): Horrible. Advice to people travelling to Madurai: Avoid David Residency - The location. the staff were asleep and it took them more than 10 minutes to wake up and get me to my room.
The room was tiny with just about a foot of walk space around the bed.
The room was damp.
The smell of sewage was strong in the room and a notice advised to switch on the exhaust fan only if needed.
The TV did not have a remote and the staff did not wake up when I went to ask them for it.

- Ramamurthy (10/5): Exceptional - Staff are courteous and helpful.
- Hannah (10/5): Exceptional - Nice stay. Patient host.
- Manasa (5/5): Passable - Washrooms were very dirty,rooms weren't clean.
- Biswanath (1/5): Wrong hotel listed in the booking.com - This is a kind of hotel to stay is enough but they cheated and as we reached late night and it's far from station and no nearby hotel to search. They charged 1000 extra as they told on there app the rate is reflecting different from the amount paid. Fraud and cheating experience with the manager who charged with higher charges in the late night with family it's not safe to stay in that hotel.
- Swaminathan (1/5): Avoid. - No natural ventilation. No mosquito/insect netting. So one would be fumigated throughly with insect repellent fumes.
Bathroom smelt bad. There are instructions not to " kindly use the exhaust fan ( in the bathroom ) only when needed to avoid drainage smell " i.e. there seems to be some connection between drainage/ sewerage system and air circulation in this establishment.
- Dr (9/5): Superb - Follow up after booking Nil
- Chellappan (4/5): Disappointing -
- Dileep (7/5): Good -
- Harendra (5/5): Unhygienic rooms and bathrooms fully dark and dependable on electricity for light , no fresh air - There is no entry for fresh air and sun rays, in room or bathroom which makes the room less comfortable and unhygienic.

- Umesh (8/5): Very good -
- Rajkumar (1/5): Bad - A very filthy place
