Hotel Ajay Palace

So, we are over here at Patanwala Mahal in Byculla. It is building number 16/17 on Dadoji Konddeo Marg. If you know Mumbai, you know this part of the city is always moving. Most mornings start early because the street noise kicks in around six. We have been in this spot for a while now. It is just an old building in a busy area. The zip code is 400027. People walk past the front door all day going to work or the market nearby. It is not fancy. We just keep the place running. Sometimes the fans make a bit of noise and the hallway light flickers if you don't hit the switch right. We spend a lot of time just sitting behind the main desk or checking the linens. Byculla has that specific feel where everything is a bit crowded but it works. You can hear the taxis honking outside most of the time. The address is 16/17, Patanwala Mahal. It is easy to find if you are looking for Dadoji Konddeo Marg. We do not have big signs or anything like that. Just the name Hotel Ajay Palace on the front. Usually, the tea guy comes around ten and that is the highlight of the morning. We just stay here and handle whoever walks in through the door. It is a simple life in this part of Mumbai, nothing more than that. We just focus on the daily chores and getting through the week.
