One of the most Beautifully located Homestays I've ever been with incredible hospitality all around. Aunty Sahil Bhai and the sisters there made me feel at home away from home. Had some amazing local cuisines. The Indreni Falls is at walking distance from there. If you're looking for some peace with sound of nature and incredible hospitality , I strongly recommend this Homestay. 🫶🏽🙏🏾

Tucked away from the noise of the city, we found a homestay that felt straight out of a fairy tale—misty mornings, warm smiles, and nights filled with starlight instead of headlights. Every corner had a story: homemade food from the host’s kitchen, a cozy room that opened to endless green, and conversations that felt like catching up with old friends. It wasn’t just a place to stay, it was a feeling to remember—one of those rare spots that stays with you long after you’ve checked out. Truly Magical memories........ Special Thanks to "LUKA" THE 🐕 🐶 🐕 🐕 the glittering star

We booked this property for it's fantastic, eye-soothing view, and the room was nicely decorated and well maintained. However, we ran into a couple of problems: rainwater was leaking from the bathroom ceiling onto the geyser switch and cloth holder, and the food prepared by the hot though she was very friendly- was far too oily. Fixing these issues would make the stay much better
