One of the most underrated yet best homestays in charkhol. You can find many here, but within budget, this is the perfect option you can get. Cozy wooden rooms, spacious washrooms with geysers, local style balcony, comfortable bed, clean and hygenic and most importantly their food. Its amazing, local flavours and they serve fish in such affordable packages. If you want to experience LUXURY, this place is NOT for you, if you want to live like local, eat like local, feel like local, then do visit this place!

Snow White Holiday Inn truly deserves the title of the best homestay in Charkhole. From delicious homemade food to the peaceful environment, everything was beyond expectations. The hospitality here makes you feel at home, and the serene surroundings are ideal for a relaxing holiday. Will surely visit again!

The rooms are spacious, but full of bugs. Water is not available at all in the morning. We faced so much problem due to this. Also the property is managed by two young boys. They drink in the evening and remain drunk through out the night. Felt unsafe due to this. The only thing good is the location.

রুম একদম খারাপ ,,বাইরে থেকে ভিক্টোরিয়া ভেতরে সোনাগাছি। বাথরুমে জল পড়ে না। কমোড এ ফ্লাশ হয় না।তার পরেও সেখান কার লীজ ওনার এডভ্যান্স টাকা টা রিফান্ড করেনি । আমার গেষ্ট এর সব থেকে খারাপ এক্সপ্রেশন।আবার ওনার k jokhon বললাম বলে next booking e adjust kore debe । আবার গেষ্ট নষ্ট করার জন্য কি বুকিং করা টা ঠিক হবে ।
