Hotel Luciya International

We booked a homestay on booking.com and that booking was scrapped because of some miscommunication. We were given this alternate arrangement from booking.com and I was extremely pleased by the support and the follow-up of booking.com. The property is in a great location to view Mysore Dashera procession. The staff is good. Its near Mysore palace and I could see the procession from terrace (otherwise I would have had to watch it from streets and it wouldn't have that been a great experience because of the crowd) of the Hotel and the hotel arranged for chairs on the terrace for better viewing experience. The rooms are clean and the room service was prompt. Parking space was a very big plus point.

I wanted to pay the entire amount by card but the hotel said they wanted it in cash as their card machine was not working. I paid the advance of 'x' amount in cash and told them I would pay the reminder in card while doing check-out. During check-out they again demanded for cash citing the same reason and this time I outrightly refused and they took out the card machine which was working fine.
