Question 3

What should I check before paying advance for a PG in Kanpur?

Accepted Answer

Check: (1) the listing's current verification status and supporting details; (2) advance amount and refund terms; (3) notice period; (4) what is included — WiFi, food, electricity; and (5) the property in person before paying.

Is it safe to book a PG online in Kanpur?

Review the listing, landlord details, payment provider, cancellation terms, and refund policy before booking. UniNest does not promise one payment or escrow arrangement across every listing. Never pay directly to a landlord before seeing the room and confirming the terms.
