Thanks for the comment; did you have a vehicle at your disposal during your stay at the Lemon Tree? Are there any shops, restaurants (including decent dhabas) within walking distance? You see, I do not wish to endure the hassle of negotiating with auto-rickshaws if I just want to go out for a meal or buy some batteries etc. - hence the question.

BTW, how was the Lemon Tree service in Aurangabad? Was it comparable to what you are used to elsewhere in India?
