Guest Reviews

• Juliana (1/5): - Da localização De todo o restante. O lugar é numa sobreloja, com quarto pequeno. Qualidade baixa. Não recomendo. Eu não fiquei no hotel, assim que vi como era fui embora procurar outro lugar para ficar.
• Linus (1/5): -
• Michael (1/5): Terrible. Do not book there! - Nothing I arrived at 3am as informed . The place was locked up, top floor of a filthy dump. After banging on the door many times someone came out & told me they were full up. I had booked this place back in November. I was left on the street with no Wi-Fi at 3am. Disgraceful people!
• Lucy (2/5): -
• Lucy (1/5): Do not stay here. False advertising - There was a cat that lived in the stairwells to catch the rats! When I checked in they said they were putting me in a different hotel that was up another flight of broken stairs. After one night I was then supposed to move to the correct hotel. After packing my bags to check out and move I was told I was staying there another night. I booked a deluxe room with a double bed, when I questioned the single bed the owner said I was only 1 person. On the second night I told him to come and look at the room in the hotel he put me in, eventually he came and just pushed the single beds together to make the “double” bed that I booked. There was no kettle or tv (there was a place for the tv so it must have been stolen or removed). When I asked where breakfast was served (included in the rate I paid) they said they bring coffee and omelet to the room. I’m highly allergic to egg whites and there were no other options. I asked if bread or fruit might be available for the other mornings, but I didn’t receive breakfast on any day. The room was infested with many cockroaches. I asked the owner to show me the room I should be in because I showed him the photos of the room I booked and my room looked nothing like it, he wouldn’t show me any of the rooms, but he blamed FabHotels for having the wrong photos. I saw the exact same photos for another hotel! There are many broken stairs to climb and there are also homeless men sleeping in the entranceway every night until about 9:30am.
• Muhafiz (9/5): -
• Danil (1/5): NOT RECOMMENDED !!! - The room had nothing to do with photos on booking.com . The room was much worse vs expectations / photos on booking.com . In addition, when you arrive early, there are homeless people sleeping on the internal stairs of the building.
• Vejborg (2/5): Jeg var der ikke andet end en time - Jeg er ikke engang sikker på at det er det rigtige sted jeg var. Det Janata og ikke Jante. Dejligt kvarter som jeg holder meget af. Det havde kunstgræs som tapet. Ingen vinduer i hverken sove eller badeværelset . Ikke mulighed for at bruge kreditkort.
• hintikka (2/5): Jussi - Sijainti ja omistaja kivoja Huone yli hintainen ja homeessa
• Noel Corriveau (1/5): SCAM & discusting - Nothing Absolute dump. The photos advertised are fake AI images and have nothing to do with reality. In real life, this place is disgusting. Everything was filthy, the staircase, front desk, room, bed, shower all dirty. No window, and the room was insanely humid, making it unbearable to stay in. We left after one night because it was that horrible.
• Karola (1/5): - Nichts Bilder bei booking kompletter feak, sehr unsauber und unkonfortabel
• Denis (1/5): L’hôtel le plus pourri et le moins bon qualité prix que j’ai fait en 40 ans de voyage en sac à dos, à EVITER - L’emplacement proche du centre de colaba Tout…sale…cher…rien ne fonctionnait, prises de courant attachées avec des scotchs, robinet qui ne fonctionnait pas clim et ventilateur rouillés et qui faisait tellement de bruit qu’il n’était pas possible de dormir, cage d’escalier très sale comme le reste
• Singh (1/5): Average - I book 2 adults and one child but they not booked my child who is 14 years old . & They gave me small room and very small bed . I adjust very in difficulty. My booking was 3 person but they make for two person's room & breakfast 😔
• Geetha (1/5): Very bad - Na We didn’t stay at this hotel literally after seeing the room quality we vacated immediately however we end up paying 1day stay amount
• Viljem (1/5): Horrible - Location All building are in bad condition, The room was horrible and the pictures are fake...Dirty, very smelly, no hot water. Bed linen was dirty, the question is how many people slept on it. Noisy. Worst accommodation in India so far. I slept in my sleeping bag on a dirty bed. Truly the worst experience so far...It would be better to sleep on the street.🤮🤮🤮
• YOSUKE (1/5): -
• Irina (1/5): Это был самый худший отель из всех, в которых мы были. Держитесь от него подальше. - Из хорошего только местоположение. Не платите аванс !!!! Не ведитесь на якобы большие скидки. Описание номера полностью не соответствует действительности. Браво фотографу! Фотографии сделаны так, что можно подумать, что это приличный отель. Он занимает 2 этаж в обветшалом доме, в котором находится еще несколько отелей (таксист долго не мог его найти). Общая зона с диванчиками находится на лестничной площадке. Все номера без окон. Так называемый Делюкс представлял из себя комнатку без окна размером 2,5 на 3 метра. Перед тем как нас заселить, побрызгали какой-то вонючкой, невозможно было дышать. Не было мест хранения. Чтобы лечь в кровать нужно было перелезть через чемоданы. Постельное белье грязное. Мало того, что туалетные принадлежности (в том числе и туалетная бумага) не были предоставлены, даже свои положить было некуда. Температура воды в ванной комнате не регулировалась, либо холодная, либо очень горячая. Принять душ после перелета мне так и не удалось. Чайника и чайных принадлежностей нет, как и столика, на который их можно было бы поставить. Даже представить не могла, что в отеле с завтраком, нет места для приема пищи. Заявленный завтрак нам принесли на тарелке, покрытой газетой, и поставили на кровать, т.к . больше поставить было некуда.. Он состоял из маленького стаканчика чая с молоком (муж не переносит молока) и нескольких кусочков какой-то лепешки. Мы зрелая пара, если бы мы не устали после длительного перелета и позднего заезда, то несмотря на перечисленный аванс, не остались бы в этой ночлежке. Фото ближайшего пляжа прилагаю.
• Suresh (1/5): - Every thing is worst Everything is worst
• Roland (3/5): good price for the location but I prefwr rooms with Windows - Good starting point for tourists Our room had no windows
• Navin (3/5): - Nothing Heigene and room size
• Silvana (4/5): Troppo caro per i servizi che offre e per l’igiene - La struttura ha un’ottima posizione centrale La struttura è fatiscente e le camere, così come lenzuola e asciugamani, sono molto sporche. Le camere sono molto piccole
• Sambandam (1/5): - Apart from location of the holtel, everting else are very bad. Not good for family and elderly people. Rat running during night. Nothing
• Aga (1/5): -
• Siddhi (1/5): -
• Rahul (1/5): Terrible and torture - Refund my amount Amount should be ,Rs. 500 only
• Filip (1/5): Horrible. - The location, nothing else. It was dirty and moldy and generally very unhygienic. The bed was extremely hard and the room smelled. Right before we entered the room, an attendant came and did a room spray to try and mask the smell of mold.
• Céline (5/5): - Personnel pas aidant du tout Pas de drap Pas de savon
• Alen (2/5): -
• debra (3/5): Bad - The staff were very nice the owner promised he would take down all the false info given on booking but didn’t. Misleading booking info It says kettle in room, a place to hang laundry breakfast and many other things all untrue! Moldy, nothing stays dry everything is dirty. Once again the only good thing was location and the boys who worked in the hotel.
• Eva (1/5): - L'hôtel est vraiment vieux, les photos ne ressemblent pas à la chambre. Il n'y a pas de fenêtre, l'air y est vraiment humide, notre tête de lit était moisie. Nous avons refusé d'y dormir. En plus ils vous demandent de faire un paiement avant votre arrivée pour bloquer la réservation de la chambre. A fuir !
• Basu (1/5): Rude staff, even more disappointing rooms - Nothing. Except an excellent location, this property has disappointed me all through. Smelly rooms, no water (every time I go to washroom, I need to inform the reception to let the water running). Rude staff. 0/10 Everything except location

As partial payment We reached Via Janta at 8pm. .very tired l am 78yrs n wife 77yrs , l was told l had no bookings with Booking.

They should not provide drinking water.. If u save money you can choice near gatway of india this hotel for relax budget
• Sunil (1/5): Horrible stay.. staff is so arrogant -
• Sherwan (8/5): Very good - very good location and cheap comparing to other hotels in area hotel on third floor and no elevator
• Simon (10/5): Good budget hotel. Excellent location. - I had a great experience staying at the Hotel Janata. It is a budget hotel in a prime location. Room was clean and the staff relaxed with plenty of seating around reception. The manager Shibzul Alam is organised and friendly, and made me feel very welcome. You would be lucky to find anything better in Colaba in this price class. Clear comminication is the key here, and patience in the morning during busy check out at 11am. I'll be back for certain. Nothing.
• Minttumaaria (10/5): Exceptional - Hotel Janata is a very nice little hotel situated within an easy walking distance from Gateway of India etc. The staff made us feel truly welcome, they were very helpful and friendly. There are lots of restaurants and tea stands in the area, also good possibility for shopping. Our room was very comfortable and it was cleaned regularly as per our wishes. The hotel has a small lobby with a fan, where you can sit, read, relax and chat with other guests. Through the open windows you hear the Colaba sounds. I strongly recommend the Mumbai sightseeing tour arranged for us by the manager! In this price range, Hotel Janata is a good choice!
• Harshul (10/5): Exceptional -
• Parasiya (1/5): It was ok below average only location is good - Location is good Cleanliness , bathroom space and ventilation in room
• Çılga (3/5): Poor - Staff was kind and helpful. Our room was not clean and there was no window.
• Wendy (1/5): Bad -
• Shorin (10/5): Exceptional - Everything was good
• Shahrukh (4/5): Disappointing -
• Johanna (6/5): Pleasant - The location was okay. In our room it was quiet, while in the midst of Mumbai. In the night really quiet. The room itself was small, but clean. Luckily we had a window, otherwise it would be really to small for us. I liked the decoration. There was a strong chemical smell in the room...maybe temporarely? Staff was not unfriendly but also not very helpfull.
• Jamie (10/5): Great staff, clean rooms, amazing location - The staff are very friendly and attentive, and the rooms are clean and well looked after. It is in a very convenient location. Highly recommended. was very happy with everything during my stay.

• Shahin (10/5): Exceptional -
• Tomer (1/5): It's one of the worst places I've ever been to - It's probably one of the worst places I've ever been to. Do not let the pictures on the website diecive you. My room (101), unlike the pictures, was small, dirty, and full of cockroaches. The staff are even worse. They were not nice and gave me a feeling that Im not welcomed.

• Rahul (5/5): Passable - Walking distance to gateway of India. Room was like a matchbox. Bathroom was unhygienic. Bed Thad bedbugs. Owner / staff - Mehfooz was very arrogant.
• Anthony (1/5): Bad -
• Dhirendra (2/5): Very poor -
• Shahid (9/5): Superb -
• Bobby (2/5): One disaster after another. - Very small rooms with serious damp throughout the room, washroom and hall to the rooms. We only stayed 2 nights and on leaving we could feel the moisture setting into our backpacks and clothing inside. We paid for an AC room but everytime we wanted to use the air conditioning we had to go to reception and ask them to put on for us as they switch it off at the mains to suit them. Also when we first checked in we asked the staff to help us with booking our onward transport and this was great. Unfortunately when we returned that evening we were told the original 3500 we were asked for and paid was not enough and we would have to pay an extra 900. We refused this and we're told we could then have a refund. This was paid back to us in installments that I had to ask for 3 times. Because of this we found else where to book our transportation. We found this at half the price but slightly later than originally planned so we asked could we have a late check out due to the mistake and were told to stay as long as we wanted. However on checking out we were then aggressively asked to pay a full nights rate for this convenience. We argued our case for a while and gave up in the end with 300 taken off the bill. Nice area but lots of other places to choose from.
• Stacey (2/5): You won’t get what you paid for! AVOID - We booked a deluxe room for 2 nights. When we arrived at 9pm they said they didn’t have our booking. After showing my confirmation, they finally agreed to give us a room but made us wait one hour! When we were shown to room at 10.30pm it was a tiny box room. I showed them that we had booked deluxe, they said this is not true, that they only had a booking for standard room (magically found booking) and that we paid only gets us a standard room - not the deluxe I booked! He then said he would change rooms next morning, but then refused sayi t we haven’t paid for deluxe and none available (however I had seen an empty deluxe room!) The room we had been given is nothing like pictured, no duvet on bed, no free toiletries, no daily housekeeping, no fridge, no free water as advertised, really strong smell of mould, dirty walls, ripped bedding, dangerous wires coming out of walls etc. Hotels.com phone hotel and hotel refused to assist them. Avoid!
• David (4/5): - Totally overpriced rate Boiling hot and no ventilation Would not recommend staying here However the staff were friendly and helpful
• pradeep (2/5): nice location near to beach - not a nice hotel its on 2nd floor has not its own way no lift congusted rooms and hotel not staff good
• Eitan (4/5): Simple - Over priced for what it offered. Room was tiny, sheets not clean. I am used to this in India, but when I stay at 2-3$ rooms, not 30$ rooms
