Before you book a budget PG
A low rent is only a good deal if the basics are right.
- Ask what the rent includes: meals, electricity, Wi-Fi and housekeeping are sometimes extra.
- Check the security deposit and notice period.
- Read the Google reviews and visit before paying anything.
- Contact the owner directly from the listing — RoomNiva charges no brokerage.
