great locationquiet neighbourhoodlimited optionssmall table
The location IS great. It is close to Kala Ghoda, a quiet neighbourhood. The building's architecture is that of a former fort.
The breakfast buffet had very limited OPTIONS , and the room had no windows. The work table was very, very small.
