Hello Rahul,

To get form values in array, you just have to write your form names like this (i'm using your example):

<input type="checkbox" name="feature[]" value="Air Conditioning" />Air Conditioning
<input type="checkbox" name="feature[]" value="CD Player" />CD Player
<input type="checkbox" name="feature[]" value="Rumpus Room" />Rumpus Room

Add [] at the end of your variable's name and that's it.
Now in your PHP script, you will have an array like this:

Array ( [0] => Air Conditioning [1] => CD Player [2] => Rumpus Room)

I hope it helps, have a good day.
