Jaiwana Haveli – Udaipur

It was my hotel in Udaipur, India. The word haveli in Indian means mansion. What happens is that the old mansions of a city are often converted into hotels. This hotel was great. It cost me about $16 a night and I felt it was worth it. The room was very modern and clean. I paid $2 extra each day for wi-fi, which was often spotty as to the reception. The restaurant upstairs had really great views, but the food was expensive and way-too-spicy. More often than not I only ate half of the dinner meal, making it way-too-expensive. I stayed in Udaipur for a couple of extra days instead of moving on to Mumbai because I had trouble finding a cheap hotel in Mumbai. Plus I got to ride on an overnight sleeper bus instead of an overnight train train. More about that later after it happens.
