Hotel Karnail

Hotel Karnail is located in Jalebi Line in Sakchi. It’s a very busy part of Jamshedpur with lots of shops and people selling things on the street. You can smell the sweets from the nearby stalls all day long. The building is older and the stairs are a bit narrow, so carrying heavy bags up can be a bit of a struggle. I usually sit at the entrance near the small desk. We have regulars who come back every time they are in town for business. The rooms aren't very big, but we make sure the sheets are changed and the bathrooms are scrubbed. Sometimes the water pressure in the pipes is a bit low, so we tell guests to let the tap run for a minute. Sakchi is a loud place, especially in the evenings when everyone is out shopping. We don't have a lift, so if you are on the top floor, it’s a good bit of exercise. My cousin helps me with the accounts on weekends because I’m not very good with the computer. We just try to keep things decent and honest. If someone needs an extra pillow, we usually have a few stored in the cupboard under the stairs. It’s a simple life here in the market. We open the doors early and don't close until the last train comes in. Sometimes the street dogs sleep near our doorstep, and we just leave them be as long as they are quiet.
