We could not stay there as it was Full of Bad smell,we could not enter to room,Still he forced and,

The property owner is very harmful and professional criminal,feels like, when we reach there was no power nothing as per description and nothing as per discussion on call for special requirements..

It was completely hopeless and harmful experience, Booking.com should take action on this property and cancel his service from, Booking.com....

Poor cleanliness, unhygienic conditions and owner threatening messages after genuine review

Nothing to like here, please read this completely if you want to stay peacefully. I stayed at Happy Madurai Homestay from **17–19 October 2026**, and unfortunately, the experience was extremely disappointing. I would not recommend this property for a stay. The entire house was poorly maintained and had a strong unpleasant smell. The bedsheets were dirty, smelled bad, and did not appear to be freshly washed. The bed itself was in very poor condition, and the overall cleanliness was far below what you would expect from a homestay. The kitchen had **cockroaches and snails**, which was extremely unhygienic. There was also cow dung, garbage, mud and wastewater around the property. The surroundings were poorly maintained. **No soap was provided in the washroom.** When I asked the owner about it, I was told that soaps would not be provided. For a homestay, I consider this a basic necessity. There was no proper person available at the property to take care of guests or address these issues. Although the person we spoke to was polite, there was clearly no proper care or management of the homestay. We stayed for two days because we had already **paid the full amount**, and after arriving and seeing the actual condition, we were left with no practical option but to continue our stay. The owner later replied claiming that I had asked for a discount. If that were true, **why would I pay the full balance on the day of arrival?** I had paid ₹2,000 as advance and was specifically asked to pay the remaining **₹3,668 at the time of arrival**, which I paid in full. I have attached the WhatsApp conversation and **fully paid payment screenshot** for verification, along with photos of the room and property.

There is also another serious matter. After I posted my genuine review, the owner threatened and intimidated me through WhatsApp messages, saying that he would come and meet me at my premises in Guduvanchery and that he would come directly to my shop to discuss the review. I found these messages threatening and intimidating, especially after I had posted an honest review of my stay. I have attached screenshots of these messages so everyone can see them and judge for themselves. Another issue is the approach road. There is a railway gate on the way to the property, and it appears to be closed frequently, which can cause additional inconvenience. I am uploading genuine photos from my stay so future guests can see the actual condition of the property. The photos shown on Booking.com appear to be old photos from when the house was newly built and freshly painted, and in my experience, they do not reflect the current condition. You don't need to blindly trust my words. Please look at the attached photos, payment proof and WhatsApp screenshots and judge for yourself. Future guests: Please do not blindly trust old photos or 5-star reviews. Ask the owner for recent photos taken TODAY, or preferably request a live video call showing the actual room, bedsheets, bathroom, kitchen and surroundings before booking. Based on the condition and cleanliness I experienced, I would not recommend this property. Please verify the current condition carefully before booking.

Try to avoid as much as u can

I planned a visit with my family here and the host is sooo irresponsible and he casually said my booking overlaped by some other booking so he cancelled my booking now i became room less in madhurai and my entire madhurai trip got messed up.. if there was an overlap can't he just call and say booking got cancelled before hand atleast 12hrs of 8hrs prior to my booking time... What kind of recklessness was this
