Coming to Mumbai is not a big deal in today’s time but surviving is. Leaving all the comfort and luxury at home you set out to make your career in the city of Dreams. The very first thing that you need to do is to find a decent place to stay.

As living in Mumbai is expensive the preferable choice of stay is Paying Guest (PG). Before searching a perfect PG accommodation you must consider certain important factors or points. These points will ensure that you get the ideal PG in a budget that suits you.

Location:

Location is the most important factor that you must consider before selecting a PG to stay. Mumbai is vast and trust me you don’t want to waste your time, energy and hard earned money in travelling. When you have an option select a location that is nearby your workplace or college or institute. In Mumbai for example if your office is in Bandra Kurla Complex you can search for a PG anywhere from Dadar to Andheri.

Also select a location that is well connected with the city. If your PG is near Railway Stations or Airports or Metro lines travelling to other parts of Mumbai or even outside Mumbai is convenient.

Andheri is a location that has a Major Railway station, Versova-Ghatkoper Metro line and also International and Domestic Airports in close proximity.

Price:

Price is also an equally important factor to be considered while selecting a PG. You have opted for PG for saving money so if the place doesn’t suit your budget move on to other PG.

Facilities:

Now comes the factor that covers your comfort. The benefit of staying in PG is that they have mostly all the facilities and amenities required by the clients.

You must have a list of the facilities you require like personal bed, personal cupboard with lock to store your valuables, fridge, wifi, washing machine, water purifier etc.

Also check for the facilities available in the building like 24 hours water supply, 24/7 Security with CCTV setup, common areas for recreation etc.

Vibe:

Vibe of the place is a factor that you must consider before finalizing the PG you want to stay in. The atmosphere of the PG must be comforting, soothing and must match your vibe. In PG you meet people, get to know their lifestyle, culture and other details. So to have great experience and some amazing memories a friendly atmosphere is must.

PG Owner:

Before selecting a PG ensure that the PG owner or the company providing PG is standard. It has sufficient man power and provisions for different facilities like daily cleaning, pest control, maintenance of appliances, any repair or renovation, cooks, tiffin services, etc. This will enhance your experience in staying.

I hope these factors help you select an ideal PG as per your requirement and budget.
