Pros: I needed to attend a conference in Novotel Convention Center in Hitex. Lake View Homes (LVH) is around 2.5 km from Novotel, if you want to take a taxi or auto into Novotel. LVH is very much adjacent to the main road in Kondapur, unlike what Google Maps shows; so it easy to get an auto. The staff in LVH are courteous. They served fairly good food, which is only vegetarian. There is hot water (heater) and AC (I did not use the latter). Cons (for each of the pros): Construction all around and closeness to the main road means that there is plenty of dust and smoke coming in; so cannot keep the windows open. That is, the air you breathe is not good, unless you are used to this kind of air. There is no HVAC system, unlike, for example, in TATA Ginger. So, air is not very good. The staff is courteous, but not trained. They are just migrant labor. So, while they clean the room, they leave plenty of dust, hair, lint, etc in not only the nooks and corners, but also in accessible areas of the room. Further, while my room was waiting for me, when I checked in, I found the toilet containing residues of fecal matter. Overall, LVH is not a hotel. It is what they call "service apartment". I chose it mainly for its proximity to where I wanted to go. The owners of LVH seem to be satisfied with where they stand. If they could be a little ambitious, they could provide better value for the money.
