NIDA Rooms: A Solution For Your Budget-Hotel Needs

Are you the type of traveler who prefers staying in a budget-hotel rather than spending a lot for a luxury accommodation? For SeatsForTwo, most of the time we spend on experiences – renting a boat for the two of us and go island hopping. Getting a van for a whole day of city tour. We also shell out on having the luxury of 4-5 star hotel experience from time to time.

With low cost airfares plus the growing agri-tourism, sports tourism and medical tourism in the country, it is expected that the number of foreign guests will double in 2016. For budget travelers who are in search for budget-friendly, clean and comfy rooms, there’s a solution to your budget-hotel needs – NIDA Rooms.
