Finding a budget hotel while travelling can be a challenging task, as it involves balancing affordability with acceptable quality and location, often requiring significant time and effort to find good deals. Things get even more difficult if you’re looking for a room on an hourly basis, as the concept isn’t universally offered by all hotels, especially in India.
Recently, something like that happened with a Reddit user who faced a hard time in Mumbai looking for a good stay for 3 people on an hourly basis (just 3 hours).
Man Asks For Hotel Suggestions On Reddit
Taking to Reddit, the user asked for the best hotel suggestion between Malad and Bandra (West) for three people, 1 male and 2 females, under the budget of Rs 2,500 to Rs 3,000.
“I am looking
for hotels for a couple of hours between Malad and Bandra (preferably west) where they allow 3 people (1M, 2F) on an hourly basis. The budget is 2.5 – 3k tight on money, so I can’t push it. Any suggestions?,” the post reads.

How Did Social Media React?
The post was quick to grab the attention, prompting several hilarious reactions. A Reddit user took reference from Shahid Kapoor and Kareena Kapoor Khan’s film Jab We Met and wrote, “Hotel Descent, they charge hourly!”
Another one wrote, “Thora kharcha krlo bhai/behen!!! (Spend some money, brother/sister).” A person commented, “I’m sure you can take your mom and aunt to a slightly more expensive place.”
A comment reads, “Hope you have a good time with your wife and daughter.” One of them shared, “
Bhai ye Reddit hai REDDIT. Oyo yaa agoda ki app nahi.” Another person wrote, “I can bet he made this post just to flex.”
While others quipped, some offered genuine help. A user penned, “Book AC Dormitory at Bandra Station- 750 for 12 hrs.” Another shared, “Try the Brevistay app.” One user commented, “Get an Airbnb, guys. It’ll be easier and cosier.”
Apart from this, some people also suggested the Reddit user try other hotel booking apps like OYO or Agoda to find a suitable hotel on an hourly basis.
