My stay at Al Woodlands Residency in Ooty was fairly good, with clean rooms and friendly staff. However, I encountered some issues with a stinky bathroom and slippery flooring that detracted from the experience. Overall, considering the peak season rates, I felt the hotel could have offered more for the price I paid.

I had a pleasant stay at Al Woodlands Residency, especially appreciating its location just beside the stunning Rose Garden. However, I found that the hotel, being relatively new, still needs to improve certain facilities, and the bed sizing could be larger for comfort. Overall, for the price, it offers good value. 😊
