Great value, excellent stay
We had a great stay. The bed was a little creaky but for the price this is really excellent value compared to some of other hotels we have stayed at the same price. The staff were super helpful. We took the hotel car to the airport which was very reasonably priced at 700 rupees. The only minus point was that the driver very directly asked for a tip when he dropped us off at the airport, which we thought was a little off-putting.

Cool people
Very, very nice people who aren't pushy with booking services. If you need adventure booking, they have but they don't force it on you. Which is great. Super cool staff

Very noisy place. I had the upper floor and heard a lot of noise and banging from the rooftop restaurant. Many flies also in the room. Staff was friendly and helpful.
