The Five Pillars

Shelter

medium confidence4.2 / 5
"Guests consistently describe the rooms as neat, tidy, and well-maintained with comfortable beds, though a few noted older rooms lack certain amenities and one guest reported an unresolved power outage."

Water

low confidence4.0 / 5
"Limited specific mentions of water, though multiple guests confirmed working geysers and functional bathrooms, with one remarking that washrooms could be slightly improved."

Hearth

medium confidence4.1 / 5
"Food receives widespread acclaim for tasty local chicken, homegrown meals, and barbecue. While most praise the host and staff as welcoming and helpful, a coordinated cluster of 1-star reviews cited rude owner interactions during a dispute."

Would highly recommend this stay. Rooms are decent with all necessary amenities. Amazing local delicacies, good is pure comfort with varieties (Breakfast, Lunch, Snacks and Dinner). The showstopper is the view for the shared area, beautiful river flowing with a view to the nearby park. Just amazing experience to spend relaxing time in the nature's lap. Beautiful hospitality, very homely.

Our experience at this homestay was extremely disappointing. The behavior of the staff/management was very rude and unprofessional. The way we were treated as guests was completely unacceptable, and the basic standards of hospitality were not met. After such a poor experience and attitude, we would definitely not consider staying here again or recommending this place to anyone. The management seriously needs to work on their staff’s behavior and guest handling.

Very disappointing experience. The main problem was the owner’s attitude and behavior. We did not feel welcomed or respected during our stay. The owner’s way of talking to guests was extremely rude and unprofessional. The property may look fine, but good hospitality is equally important, and unfortunately, that was completely missing. We expected a much better experience but were seriously disappointed. I would not recommend this homestay to others, especially if you expect polite and respectful treatment from the host.

"Our stay was very disappointing. The owner's behavior was rude, unprofessional, and unwelcoming. We did not feel respected as guests, which made our experience unpleasant. Hospitality is not just about providing a room but also treating guests with courtesy. Unfortunately, that was missing here. I would not recommend this place based on my experience."

Owner behaviour is very bad

Our experience at this homestay was extremely disappointing. The biggest issue was the owner’s behavior. He was very rude, disrespectful, and unprofessional towards us as guests. The way he spoke to us and treated us made us feel extremely uncomfortable. A good homestay is not just about the room or cleanliness; the way guests are treated matters just as much. Unfortunately, we did not receive the basic respect and hospitality that a guest should expect. Overall, it was a very unpleasant experience, and we would definitely not choose to stay here again. I would recommend future guests to carefully read the reviews before booking

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Had a wonderful stay at Yolmoo Homestay, Tabakoshi! The location is peaceful and surrounded by beautiful natural scenery, making it a perfect place to relax and unwind. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. What truly made the experience special was the warm hospitality of the hosts. They were incredibly friendly, attentive, and always ready to help, making us feel right at home from the moment we arrived. Their kindness and care added a personal touch that made our stay memorable. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a comfortable stay, a relaxing atmosphere, and genuine hospitality. Looking forward to visiting again!

I had a very disappointing experience at Yolmo Homestay. I chose this place expecting warmth, hospitality, and good food, but unfortunately, it turned out to be the exact opposite.The food quality was extremely poor. The meals were not fresh, lacked taste, and were far below the standards one would expect from a homestay that hosts guests and charges for its services. It felt as though very little care or effort was put into preparing the food. What was supposed to be an enjoyable part of the stay became one of the biggest disappointments....Even more upsetting was the behaviour of the hosts and staff. They were rude, unwelcoming, and lacked basic courtesy. As guests, we expected to be treated with respect and kindness, but instead, we often felt ignored and uncomfortable because of their attitude. Hospitality is one of the most important aspects of any homestay, and sadly, this place failed completely in that regard....I rarely leave negative reviews, but I believe future travellers deserve to know about my experience before making a booking. I sincerely hope the management takes this feedback seriously and works on improving both their food quality and their behaviour towards guests. Based on my experience, I would not recommend Yolmo Homestay to others, and I would not choose to stay here again.

It's a nice place situated just beside the rangbhang river in tabakoshi. The rooms are neat with good service and staffs. The only glitch is the new construction...it is almost on the river bed obstructing the natural flow...and making it risky
