City advice
Getting around
Avoid getting caught up with Touts
Please be watchful from Touts approaching you.It could be for some business or something else.Recently we have noted that there is a Tout who is watchful of the Guests arriving to Muhsin Villa, as we have a fine occupancy throughout the year, and when they head out of the property after a few blocks he will approach and introduce himself as he is the CHEF of Muhsin Villa and he can help you buy spices and will try to take you to the markets.Please note that we dont have any staff working for us or branches outside or any personnel working for us.Its the Family run business.
