Frequently Asked Questions

A Paying Guest (PG) accommodation is a living arrangement where a guest rents a room or a bed in a shared house or commercial property. It typically comes with essential services like home-cooked meals, high-speed Wi-Fi, electricity, housekeeping, laundry, and 24/7 security included in a single monthly or daily fee.

A PG is characterized by a comfortable, home-like ecosystem with shared living options and daily meals provided. Hostels focus on budget-friendly, high-density dorm rooms and community-centric recreational common zones, popular with students and backpackers. Budget hotels offer private, service-oriented rooms on a short-term basis but lack community kitchens or shared co-living common zones.
