I wish to write here that I stayed at Hotel Mohan International during my visit to Delhi and found the quality of service and rooms as excellent and much better than I expected. It actually gave more value for my money I spent for my stay.
Hotel Mohan International in Delhi provides Budget accommodation in Delhi, it also provides service.

We make you stay comfortable one and make you feel at home. Accommodation includes single rooms, double rooms, to suit the varied needs of our customers.
Hotel Mohan International building is four stories and it was constructed in 1995 and last renovated in 2002. It is located near New Delhi Railways Station. Hotel has air-conditioned rooms and air-cooled rooms. Our hotel has luggage storage facilities and our check in time is 24 hours and our check out time is 12 Noon and there is ample car parking for our costumers and it is free of charge.
Driving Directions: EASY! We are located at a 2 minute walk from the railway station and a 5 minute walk from the cities main shopping center CONNAUGHT PLACE'
The guy who runs the place is also a total crook. Luckily for us we had the brilliant Lonely Planet guide book.
First we enquired about hiring a car and driver to take us around northern India for a week. I say we enquired, but what I really mean is that he tried to force it upon us. Anyway you can just tell who are rats in this world, so we looked in the guidebook, and found a brilliant little company called LTC travel 5 minutes walk away who managed to get us exactly the same itenary for half the price. Needless to say, when the owner, who we came to refer to as "the Umpa Lumpa", for good reason, found out he went beserk. Just shows you how much of a winner he thought he was onto with us. He would have taken our fat wad of cash and shoved it straight into his pocket, laughing all the way to the bank.
Unfortunately for us he managed to eventually pull one over on us. We asked him to buy us a train ticket down to Bombay, and again it was more him forcing than us wanting, but later that night he presented us with the ticket. He didn't quote us a price, slightly suspicious looking back on it. Anyway, the had a price on it, a price which we later found to be the total price for both tickets. He charged us that total price each. We even enquired about this, and he lied through his teeth saying, "no, it is each, each". He made about 30 quid profit out of us there and then. A total crook.
A couple of other intensely annnoying habits are these.
Whenever he talked to you he would drag you down to the basement where his office was located. He would never talk to you alone, he always had to have one of his goons present. An intimidationary tactic perhaps? Or maybe someone to back up his bent version of the facts.
Another time one of the computers I was writing an email on froze. I asked him if I could restart the computer. He came over, by which time the computer had unfrozen, and started to shamelessly read the email I had just written. No class what-so ever.
If you can avoid it do not go within in inch of this place. It's extremely depressing at the time, but extremely comical to look back on over a beer. The security guard on the door obviously was a few sandwiches short of a picknic, only letting you enter the premises if you shook his hand. He blatantly got that outfit for christmas from his mum.
I swear that not a single word I have said has been untrue, and that this account is completely accurate.
Thanks for taking the time to read this, I hope it prevents other travellers such as myself from being conned in the future.
PS - he owns about 3 other hotels in the same area, so be beware. If you see an Umpa Lumpa, Run!
