The Meadows is the strangest hotel I've ever stayed in. Here are the pros: our flight from Mumbai landed at 6:15 am and The Meadows was able to provide us with an early check in. The rooms are all little cottages, and had a lot of outlets, so you can charge your devices easily.
However, the bathroom consistently had a swarm of small flies in it. I asked the front desk to have housekeeping deal with it, but I don't think he understood my English. I ended up smushing at least 30 little flies myself. In addition, our bed had ants in it at least twice, despite the sheets being changed.
Because it's a resort, and because the area it's in is largely residential, you're stuck eating at the hotel restaurant. I booked it because it meant that our drive to Ellora Caves would be a little shorter, as it's on the way. The table cloths were consistently dirty (stained with food) and unpressed. None of the waitstaff seemed to speak English very well. Literally every single menu was different - some items were listed in one menu but not another. This meant that your orders were taken very literally, because not even the waitstaff knew what was on the menu! So if the menu said "gulab jamun with ice cream" and you ordered the gulab jamun, you got...gulab jamun. No ice cream.
In addition, even though it's set up to be a swanky resort, the grounds were always dirty. There were beer cans and water bottles strewn about, and stray dogs roaming around. On the whole, I was unimpressed.
