Corbett Riverside Resort

Even though the name sounds like it belongs in the mountains, we are right here at Khirki Extension Cariappa Marg A 1. It’s a bit of a confusing name for a place in the city, but we just stuck with it. This is Corbett Riverside Resort, and mostly we just handle rooms and guests. It’s an old building and the stairs are a bit narrow, so carrying luggage up can be a bit of a workout. We spend a lot of time changing sheets, washing towels, and making sure the bathrooms are okay. It’s not like a five-star hotel with a bunch of staff in suits. We just wear our regular clothes and sit at the small desk near the entrance. The street outside, Cariappa Marg, can be really busy with traffic, but once you get inside A 1, it’s a bit quieter. We have a few plants in the hallway that we try to keep alive, though the light isn't great in there. Sometimes the plumbing acts up and we have to call the guy to come fix it. It’s just a normal guest house where people stay when they have business in the city. We don't offer anything fancy, just a bed and a place to keep your things. We keep the keys on a big board behind the counter and check people in whenever they show up. It's a lot of work to keep up with the guests, but it keeps the days from getting boring.
