"My stay at this hotel was comfortable overall. The room was clean and the staff was courteous and responsive. The location was convenient for my travel needs. However, I did feel that the breakfast options could have been better, and the Wi-Fi was a bit slow at times. Apart from that, it was a good stay, and I would consider coming bac

No air conditioning, broken windows, dirty room and smells bad from door, to stairway. Carpet torned. Could not even checked in. Had to go pay for another hotel. This place should never be considered livable. I request for my full refund because i could not stay there even for a night.

Booking a room at Hotel O Colonial has been nothing short of a nightmare. I'll preface this review by saying that the photos are very deceiving, which was immediately clear when I arrived. It's an older hotel, which is fine, but I chose not to stay because it wasn't what I was expecting. The concierge canceled my booking and instructed me to contact Hotels.com for my refund. Since then, the hotel has disputed my cancellation, claiming I stayed the night and checked out the next morning, which is patently false. Hotel O Colonial, along with Oyo, have been unhelpful and dishonest, and I'm writing this review to warn others about their deceptive business practices.

The place looked like a DIRTY 1920 house of ill repute. I can’t believe you even have this place on your list. As soon as I saw the room, I walked out. You should as a decent business gesture refund my money.

This place is ran down, and honestly unsafe. Door wouldn’t lock, dirty throughout. We stayed 20 mins and left. Couldn’t do it. Probably one of the worst hotels I’ve ever stepped into.

The whole building needs to be remodeled and the administration needs to keep the building with the a/c turned on because that area is too hot. Rooms are outdated and lack of comfort.
