Have a great experience everytime I visited here.. I visited here in 2024 first time and i just fall in love with the place.. So i revisited here again in 2025 .. And again i wanna go if possible.. The host Chiten tamang ji is very friendly and we had a very good late night talks with him ... And his wife is also very very friendly and take care of all the guests... And the most cutest is their little baby gangchen ... Overall if I have a change i would like to visit this homestay every year

Horrific experience. Very pathetic and disgusting behaviour by the owners. Very disappointing experience. Place and property is over hyped. Not recommended from my side. Food ⭐️ Property ⭐️⭐️ Behaviour (No Star) ** This is my view, i am not suggesting anybody. I just reviewed what i feel when i paying them for staying.
