Based on my experience, I would not recommend Stanza. Reasons: The cost is relatively higher compared to other PG accommodations. The quality of breakfast is inconsistent and not satisfactory on all days. Electricity charges are billed separately from the rent, amounting to approximately ₹800 per month. This includes lift and common area charges, which were not clearly communicated at the time of joining. Lunch is not provided on weekdays. Considering that many IT companies follow a hybrid work model, this is inconvenient for residents. Upon vacating, the refund amount is processed only after approximately two months.

Food 36

One of the worst PGs I have ever experienced. I seriously don’t understand who is giving 5-star ratings — most of them seem fake or paid. The food is never on time, and if you are even half an hour late, there is no food left. Everything here is overpriced. There is no washing machine, and you have to pay extra for almost everything apart from rent — electricity, WiFi, exit charges, etc. Please don’t fall into this scam. I strongly request anyone planning to join: talk to the existing residents before making a decision. Don’t get fooled by the into review.

Stanza Living Jounieh Housing - Very Bad PG Don’t trust the 5-star reviews. Reality is very different. Ratings: Stay 1/5 | Food 1/5 | Hygiene 0/5 | Parking 1/5 | Service 1/5 I’ve stayed in multiple PGs in Bangalore and this is easily the worst. Issues I faced: Cockroaches everywhere, even on the bed. Daily problem, never fixed. No hot water facility for many days at a time. Food is bad, comes from outside and is often late. Only breakfast and dinner. Laundry facilities are not available - only 5kg per month and no laundry bag for months. Seperate charges for electricity(₹1000 per month) and Wifi(₹500). WiFi connectivity is poor. Poor water smells like drainage. No parking area available, we park on road. Management doesn’t take responsibility, complaints go in circles. Not recommended at all. Daily problems and no peace of mind. Took my second account just to post this, hope you are saved from making worst decision 🙂🙏🏻.

Got scammed out of money multiple times 1) Was told there would be no extra charges except electricity bill, had to extra 1500 for water charges told would be reimbursed but never got it. 2) Told everything I pay for security deposit would be refunded, guess what got scammed out of 6000 there too. 3) During my stay my roommate left the place so I had to pay his remaining money for electricity bill was more tha 500. 4) faced problems with bed bugs during my whole stay.

Hi Admin, I stay opposite to Stanza living in btm layout(17th main road, btm 2nd stage), bangalore. I live with my family and there are a lot of houses with families who live near your PG. Every night there is a lot of noise from your residents after 10 pm, especially near the reception and the entrance area. The gate is always open even though your policy and house rules state that the gates shouldn't be left open at night. Some start speaking and shouting loudly at 11 pm, midnight and even after 1am. It's getting very difficult to get sleep. We are all busy professionals who come home to get rest but your PG residents lack civic sense and common sense and making it difficult for us. I'm writing this review at 5am since there was a huge disturbance from 3am. Please instruct all your PG residents to not make noise from 10 pm to 6 am every night. You have a resident app, so inform all of them through your app or print out information on an A4 sheet and distribute it to them. You must strictly tell your PG managers to enforce this. You must make this a priority. 17th main road, Btm layout 2nd stage is a residential area and all the people who shift here should be made aware of t

Persistent bed bug issue at Stanza Living Jounieh House, BTM Layout. Pest control done twice but no resolution. Found a bed bug inside my pillow. Repeated requests to change mattress and bed ignored. Very poor response and management. Not recommended.

This pg is not safe at all for a women. During my visit, there was no girl on site. The corridors reek of cigarette smell. Boys are roaming around shirtless without any consideration of others living there. Would not recommend. Also, all the positive reviews are posted by the upcoming tenants citing absurd reasons.

Hi, I was a resident here for 3 months. Just left this absolute pathetic place of a pg. Zero maintaince. Zero security. Pathetic hygiene in locality. I was asked to be a resident in the 5th floor, when entering the room I saw cockroaches everywhere. What a disgusting sight. We requested to be shifted and got a fairly better room in the ground floor. We were satisfied with the stay for about fifteen days until the main issues started. Stanza is an absolute mess. We had washing machines, which were so broken, I could hear it cry. Anyways, they removed the entire system of washing machines and introduced a thing called "stanza swashed"; another money making business of theirs. Normal level results for high level pricing; i gave one of my cargo jeans for wash and iron and the aglet was completely burnt. As if they pressed it on the aglet. Ludicrous. The response rate of raising a ticket is wild, zero response for two days and if the ticket has not been resolved after two days, the higher ups close the ticket by themselves. Amazing. Complaints from the staff not being paid and not getting their salary was a norm at this point, considering how many staff members came and left within a fo

I was searching for PG and visited jounieh house and I did not get good response from the team which disappointed me. I even visited the property and they kept me waiting for more than half an hour with no response which is really a very bad experience. One of the existing customers guided me through PG rooms rather than staff who should be responsible for.

It has been 3 months of me leaving the property, but still they haven't refunded my security deposit and none of the managers are picking the call or replying. The resident captain picked up my call after calling him from a long time. He started abusing me and said you shouldn't expect any kind of refund from Stanza living.

They are more like a fraud here, no cleaning no assistance and fraudulently charging extra on app. I haven’t even received security deposit yet.

Really bad service please don’t come and the issue is they don’t even care you will be just raising tickets and no one will response here. I’m stuck waiting for my tenure to complete then I’ll also leave. They will trap you with all the false promises. Better take flat or something insist of paying to these people

The worst experience ever. Cockroaches all over the pg including eating area. They don't refund the security deposit amount. It's already 3 months when I left the PG, yet they have not refunded my security deposit amount, on calling the RC Anushree, she says on the app only the refund will come. She is good for nothing she can just buy fake reviews.

As being someone who has stayed in this PG and suffered. I would definately tell people not to opt for this, these people just know how to take money and when you need help for emergencies no one even responds. Past 3 months there were water seepage, no one responded. Food quality has become literally horrible and the food quantity brought by the people is so less that it is always over even when there is time left. When you wash clothes in the washing machine it ruins them rather than cleaning. In past 5 months 3 RC's has changed and 5 housekeeping has changed due to no pay. Cleaning have been very poor and you'll find a lot of roaches. They say that there is 24*7 security but no one stays there and at night the security gaurd sleeps and knows nothing about who comes in. There is literally no more parking space available and on top of that no one is responsible with what happens with your vehicle. With the amount of money they charge, you'll get better PG's nearby. When you raise tickets no one even responds or bothers to call you but they will close the ticket by updating that the issue is resolved. The cafetaria literally smells and I even had to tell people to clean the utensil
