PUNNAMI LODGE AND RESTAURENT

It is a good room with a balcony in the first floor A/c room. Nice location, very near to Temple. we had a darshan of Sharada matha in the early morning at 7 AM. Also, it was very divine pooja and darshanam for all the devotees present, everyday evening at 7.30 PM. We really felt blessed to be there at the evening pooja. |Food is also good in the at Haritha hotel. Tea is prepared and served whenever we asked.| But i found the ground floor non a/c rooms are old ones and not that good so we updated to AC room.

The hotel is okay not a great place to stay with the family but the breakfast is superb. Nice taste fo south indian foods. Had dosa and madhu wada and both were tasty and nice. The prices are reasonable and not so high. Taste is 10 out of 10

It's USP is that it's located quite close to the main entrance of the Gnana Saraswati Temple in Basar. Some of the rooms are OK, but by and large, since the rooms remain unoccupied for the most part of the year, they are musty and not very well-maintained. Hot water is available round the clock. The rooms and the general areas are kep quite clean There is an in-house restaurant where breakfast and lunch are available, but one has to fend for oneself at night... 19/9/22: It was closed down completely and there doesn't seem to be any caretaker even.

I booked the room through online. Since this is a Govt. run, I opted this hotel to stay for my baby's Aksharabhyasam. After reaching there, I have shown the reception guy my booking letter. after waiting for 15 mins he said to take the room no. 102. The first impression when I went into the room was, it was neat and clean. But later I observed, window doors do not open, i.e., no circulation of air. I tried to hand my clothes, to my surprise, the whole of the cupboard is with termites eaten dust of the wood all over. I took this issues with the reception guy and he replies, that the non A/c room which I booked is under renovation and they provided me a A/c room. What the hell, in chill winter do I need an AC. and AC is anyway not working. Every room has the wood dust due to termites - he replies. I was shocked. In the mid night my baby got suffocation due to the dust and no air circulation. No hot water, I was given a heater rod. Do check when you travel, there are other hotels, where I heard the accommodation is good.

I have stayed in this place with family for a day before moving to another hotel in Basar owing to the shabby place that it is. This is run by the state government and the staff as such are apathetic towards guests. Doesnt have any value added services either to justify value for money.||||Choose this only if it is the only one that fits in your budget, else there are better options in Basar.

We had breakfast in this hotel around 9 am. Dosa, Puri are good. :)|Near to temple and our choultry. Many varieties are there in the menu. Good staff and order was quick. Puri was served with alu curry.

The dining area is very dirty. The guy running the place is very disrespectful and arrogant. The cleaning staff didn't wash their hands before serving food. Overpriced and under-delivered, I hated myself for choosing such a shoddy place for my family to stay and dine in. People who care for hygiene and some very basic courtesy from the staff, STAY AWAY FROM THIS!

It's nice temple to visit. It situated in Adilabad dist of Telangana state. There are several transport facilities to reach Basara from across TS state. Saraswathi temple resides at Godavari river shore
