    Dileepa is very friendly. Very reasonably priced compared to nearby properties, I hope it stays that way. Clean and tidy in a quiet area, not much more you can ask for.

    Property was very good value for the location, which is within a short walk of everything in the Fort. A little dark and ‘tired’ but to be expected of a low cost old property of this type. Staff were helpful and very friendly. Only negative -...
