Understaffed homestay and very unprofessional behaviour of the homestay owner. ❌ They don't clean the rooms after the previous guests leave.. here is what happened: 1) we checked in on May 16, we were two separate families and took 2 different rooms. We were promised clean rooms but it's not how we saw in the photos. The bathroom drainage was partially clogged with the previous guests HAIR. The toilet had stains. We told the owner and she replied " you are not supposed to look at the toilet like this..even if there is stains in the back portion,you sit in the front portion without looking backwards".. 🫩 she also said " the previous guests were not good that's how they clogged the drainage with their hair. Kotha kotha theke lok chole ashe".. instead to addressing the fact that the rooms were not cleaned after the previous guests, she completely blamed it on the guests. 2) we exchanged the rooms with the other people we were travelling with. There we found out that the flush doesn't works 🫩. The wash basin and bedsheets have stains..the dustbins have trash left by previous guests. We complained about it gently but the owner rather taking is professionally, took it personally like there can't be any problem with the services. She did not leave any scope for improvement/ suggestions. We asked for an extra bedsheet. The bedsheet she provided had even more stains than the previous one😭. We had no other option to leave that night because it was already 9pm. 3) We were staying in Darjeeling for only 16th and 17th so we thought however it is, let's just spend another night without thinking much. The rice that they gave us to eat on that her first night,it was not properly boiled. We still ate it anyway because it was almost 10pm and had no other option left. She made us a few rotis. But the very next day, she started behaving rudely and said us to leave because we complained about the hygiene issues on the previous night. 4) she kept saying " it's better if you find another hotel before the sun sets, I'll give you some extra time to check out." I heard I saying on the phone to someone " era 15 yrs age ekhane eshe gache,akhon sob jagay kamn service era janena." The bedsheets had stains of ink and other god knows what,and she justified it by saying every hotel gives the same kind of sheets, it's clean.. 5) She tried to justify her "not cleaning of rooms after guests left" and upon failing to do so, she humiliated us. We eventually left the homestay after this by evening, and the next hotel er booked is opposite of everything Didi said that we won't find in Darjeeling. The price is same as her homestay but the bedsheet are white, washrooms look like it's made yesterday and hospitality is good. In the SAME PRICE range. For anyone who's reading this, the rooms are not as big as seen in the photos, you'll only get humble behavior of you are not complaints about the service. Otherwise they'll ask you to leave doesn't matter what your situation is.. THIS WAS OUR EXPERIENCE here..

The homestay is quite impressive and conveniently located near several popular attractions, including Dali Monastery, the Japanese Peace Pagoda, Mall Road, and Ghum Monastery. The staff are exceptionally kind and courteous, and they went out of their way to assist us in arranging a tour guide, which greatly simplified our travel plans. The food served here was delightful and evoked the comforting taste of home. They also have a lovely dog named "Loki" who is "low-key" very cute🥰 and charming and added a special warmth to our stay. Overall, this place offers excellent value for money, and I would be delighted to visit again in the future.
