Roland, This place is neat and well maintained. But when I last stayed there, I paid at desi rates, and found the charges were more or less like what one would pay in a commercial hotel. Or almost! When I need a cheap, overnight (or day-long freshen up) stay downtown in Bombay/Mumbai, I opt for the Jesuit-run Seva Niketan at your Byculla. http://www.legallyindia.com/Mumbai-accommodation-and-PGs/2111-Seva-Niketan They're open to all, but you need to book in advance (usually available, and many Goan staff too). Even though shared, their bathrooms/toilets are clean, and it's very centrally located. At just a few hundred rupees a day, it's very convenient. Of course, this is not a family place...
