I like the room
Staff not comfortable
Stanza grande e pulita. La posizione è tra la spiaggia e Auroville comunità. I bus sono irregolari, i tuctuc vi chiederanno molto, il proprietario vi proporrà l'affitto di uno scooter a 400 rupie al giorno. La colazione arriva tra le 8,30 e le 9, non si può cambiare ora.
Breakfast was excellent
location, staff were responsive and great, the facilities were decent and quite convenient.
nothing specific. everything. was good.
Very nice stay
A good accommodation with a neat rooms
I had a lovely stay, spacious room, good breakfast, great location!
Excellent
Отель расположен между Матримандиром и пляжами. Пешком добираться далеко, но если арендовать скутер или на тук туке - все близко. В номере есть вентилятор и кондиционер, посуда, чайник, горячая вода. Несмотря на то что рядом с дорогой, Достаточно комфортно и уютно. достаточно тихо и не шумно ночью. По запросу сделали вкусный завтрак. Договорились о выезде немного позже. Спасибо вам за чуткое отношение к гостям🙏Отель расположен между Матримандиром и пляжами. Пешком добираться далеко, но если арендовать скутер или на тук туке - все близко.

Все было хорошо. 👍
Very small property but looks like firm stay. Nearby food availability is there.
Wash room needs to be cleaned with hot water facilities
The family were helpful. Room spacious and clean. Tailored breakfast to my taste. Good location. Very happy to have a kettle and cups in room, as well as water and glasses. Suited me to have some private time for a while although I usually like hostel atmospheres
L'emplacement,proche de tout( restaurants,petits commerces) , la chambre est confortable et propre
Très impersonnel ,la réception est à l'extérieur donc pas d'interaction . Le petit déjeuner inclus ne m'as pas été proposé,d'ailleurs le personnel n'avait pas l'air au courant. ,j'ai dû le demander pour le lendemain , en fait on vous ramène un plateau tout près de qualité très moyenne et pas de boisson . Le seul contact avec le responsable fut par whatsapp juste pour me demander les paiements puisque j'ai prolongé mon séjour. Pas de miroir dans la salle de bain
It is on the main road of auroville, near some good cafes
The place near to restaurants, shops, cafe., the amenities ( very good wifi), the indian breakfast.
Loved the stay. Staffs are great
Breakfast was served. Poor.
The mattress was terrible. They offered to change it with another one from one of the other rooms. The mattresses were all the same. You feel the coil springs. We ended up flipping the mattress over and it was a little bit better. Still feel the coil springs but a little more padding on the mattress. If I had read poor bed(mattress) I would not have booked this hotel.
The host was too good to attend the guests with any kind of requirements. Breakfast was complementary and customised as per our ask. Good place to stay with family.. They value guests.. thank you Bay Walk Residency
Serene and cooperative staff. Peaceful.
Overpriced. Filthy pillows and bedsheets. Hot water wasn’t hot enough. We repeatedly asked the owner to replace pillows and pillow covers but he did not respond. It triggered asthma for us. Towels were torn and dirty.
We had a wonderful stay at Bay Walk Residency. The rooms were clean and tidy, making our stay comfortable. The staff were extremely nice and cordial, always ready to assist with a smile. The hotel’s location is strategic, especially for those planning to visit Matrimandir, which is easily accessible from here. The complimentary breakfast served was good and added to the overall pleasant experience. The Malgudi Days outlet next to the facility serves good vegetarian food.. Highly recommended for a peaceful and convenient stay in Pondicherry!
All the rooms in the facility are located in 1st floor.. So older people and people with mobility issues (like my son who cant walk much) will have a difficult time ascending and descending the stairs.. But for this issue, the facility if really good.
Clean rooms, timely breakfast and good location
Nothing specific
Room cleanliness and friendly hospitality
Location
Side tables are not provided to the beds. Plastic cups and plastic plate. No tea bags, milk saches
Personnel sympathique
Restaurant au rez de chaussé, limité et trop loin d’Auroville
Location is very good…Breakfast was preety good..improve cleaning bedsheets were not cleaned buckets were dirty
Good location
Mobile network and WiFi network poor
Very good location with peaceful atmosphere
Awesome stay near many cafés and auroville
The staff were very helpful and attentive. There was excellent continuous hot water. Indian breakfasts were delicious and generous (a little spicy). Laundry on site service was available which was very handy.
It is on a main road so a little noisy during the day but by the evening it’s quiet. Breakfast is served after 8.30 or 9am but there are other options to eat within walking distance.
I enjoyed my stay at walk bay residency. The rooms are spacious and clean. And it was very useful to me that the check in can be 24/24 : because my bus arrived at 3am. The landlord helped me by calling the bus driver and indicating where to drop me and then he came to pick me up with a scooter during the night which was really nice 🙂 thank you.
Breakfast was Good Nice ambience Worth it for 1.5ka
Comfortable stay
The breakfast was really good
Nice location with mango trees on the back side, offering a cool shade during hot days. The host is gracious and helped us with all the things that we needed. The room is good value for money.
Big clean room and AC
I miss soap in the bathroom
In Auroville
Ineffective timeline
room good but no breakfast as I had to leave before breakfast available and also had to ask for help with tv as it was not working
flexibility of breakfast time
Very good and peaceful, the place was neat!
Clean rooms, nice location, good breakfast, ample parking space.
Not suitable if you have older adults who have problem climbing stairs.
Room, service and loved it
Rooms were near and on the main road.
The view and cleanliness was amazing 🤩
Nothing
The property did not provide breakfasts two days in a row, which were guaranteed by booking. After we enquired what was expected they just cancelled our booking after two days stay - stating that we did not show up) Rude and awful attitude to the guests. Avoid coming to this place!
The stay is good, comfortable and clean but distance is far from city. Overall a good experience
Nice well maintained rooms. Staff was very helpful.

Location
There’s nothing that I don’t like
Best service at the middle of night, very nice stay, breakfast also good,
It's close to many restaurants and cafes and shops nearby. 15 min from Matrimandir. not too far from the beach. super clean. sheets, pillows toilet and the floor. hot shower and cold air con. really cheap for what you get.
The breakfast could be way better. also there is no proper place to have your breakfast. They could just place a few tables and chairs and serve the breakfast when the guests arrive downstairs from the room, instead of knocking on the door of the room and wake you up. noise from the road
one of cleanest rooms I have been. you don't need slippers to move around. There is hot shower and very hot shower. breakfast is included also.
The noise from the road. not so much at night though. there is no mosquito net so you have to use the air con all the time. whereas at night the air from the garden is super Fresh and you could just open the window.
Room and bed was clean AC working properly Break fast was in time Bathroom was clean
Nothing everything was good
The place was very clean and nearby to Auroville.
Very nice owner. Very helpful. Rooms are clean.
A very nice room, comfy bed, very clean, hot shower, parking, this about ticks all the boxes. Would have got a 9/10 if the manager didn't keep trying to get more money. The booking was 1234 but tried to charge 1300, then 1250 then 1240 until finally I gave the correct amount. I know it isn't much difference, but it's the way it was said. I would definitely stay again, only the manager needs to work on himself a little. Also, asleep in reception floor and if you need something it's a bit awkward as you have to wake him if the girl isn't around. On check out, went to drop the key to reception and he wants me to find his staff to give the key, sorry mate, isn't that your job! To a customers job to run round the hotel to find your staff.
Great place. The room was clean and easy to locate. Very close to restaurants and cafe. The complimentary breakfast was also good.
Nothing
I really like the staffs here cooperative and helped us with getting into the rooms.
Nothing much.
Nothing.
The rooms were poorly maintained—bedsheets were unclean, towels were not provided, and the glasses were stuck to the unclean tray. Overall, it did not feel like value for money. The staff lacked professionalism, and the hospitality was disappointing. For instance, they did not provide tea when requested.
Near and clean
The place is at city centre liked the stay
Comfortable stay and Helpful staff and manager.

Food
Everything you need is there, the room is big, the AC works and everything is clean. If you need anything the staff is just amazing and they make it happen. We could rent scoters, the price is really far and the staff is really kind. Thanks again
Nothing, it was perfect.
Accommodation, Good experience with the hotel management particularly Mr.Vijayakumar who helped a lot during our stay.
Nothing like that. All was good.
Awesome stay, clean rooms and close to many cafes in auroville.
Probably the best in Auroville Area. Facilities, Hygiene and Great Professionalism. Highly recommend for couples and families who are visiting Auroville. Thank you
hospitality
ambience
Clean and well maintained rooms
The room was clean and they provided all basic amenities like water bottle, dental kit, and kettle. The location is peaceful and it's surrounded by many trees. There are many pizzerias and restaurants within a walkable distance. The host was nice and friendly. Breakfast was also included. Overall a nice experience.
The room was very neat and clean. All facilities are there as mentioned in the pictures. TV and AC all working fine. Manager Vijayakumar was really helpful with early check in and help with luggage. Decemt behaviour. Overall a pleasant stay.
It’s a very clean and nice property at the heart of Auroville. I would recommend this property to family and solo travelers and it’s budget friendly
They give bikes on rent.
Breakfast was good. The onwer's helpfulness and his customer friendly approach was very good The staff were good and helpful
The speed of WIFI network Cleanliness Non Availability of coffee or tea early in the morning
