Hotel Singh Empire

We have been running this place at B-6/47 in Sector-7, Rohini for a good while now. It’s a busy part of New Delhi, so there is always noise from the street outside. People come and go at all hours. We spend a lot of time just keeping the place tidy and making sure the water is running hot in the mornings. It’s not a huge building, but we have enough rooms for folks passing through. My brother and I take turns at the desk. Sometimes the power cuts out and we have to mess with the generator out back, which is a pain. The neighborhood has changed quite a bit since we first opened up. There are more shops now and the traffic is definitely worse. We don't have a big fancy lobby or anything like that. It’s just a standard hotel where you can get some sleep. We try to keep things simple. If a lightbulb goes out, one of us goes up and fixes it. We know the tea seller down the corner well, he brings us cups when we’re too busy to leave the front. Some guests stay for a night, others stay for a week while they do business in Delhi. We just do our work and go home when the shift ends. It’s a living. We don't do much advertising because people usually find us just by walking past or hearing about us from others. It gets the job done for us.
