    Its a value for money, budget friendly stay. The place is in a secluded area, away from rush, full of peace. Staff was very hospitable. Tourist spots, forest trails were nearby to the place. The food was freshly cooked and was very yum. You will get that pahadi touch in the food ( my personal thought). Overall had an amazing experience and would love to visit again to this property. I'm sure you will have a wonderful experience staying here.

    Food is okay okay but it can be ignored if youre not just going for eating ! I mean you can always order food from outside or bring it in.

    The view ofcourse , the morning & night view is awesome from the common balcony and you can hear birds playing and watching sunrise would be great to see ! I would praise the view and tea but the "khana is okay okay" i mean 7/10 and yes if you are planing for some ADVENTURE then stay up late till 1-2 am at night you will surely hear the tiger callings and roars from 1-2 km away ! We heard it around 2 am night ! It was scary but memorable. They have their separate cab driver and he is good and cooperative guy i took his contact for next trip !

    Location is great but the service was very poor. Host Pankaj is a very lazy person and a terrible cook. I had to wait for hours for water and food. Bedsheets and linens were dirty like hell. They made me wait outside for 30 minutes to changes this after I reprimanded them 3-4 times. It was a poor experience. Won't recommend it for a comfortable stay.

    Location was good and serene.

    I recently stayed at Tarana Cottage by NamastExplorer, and the experience was exceptional. I chose a room with a city view, which offered a stunning, scenic, and soothing panorama of the hills. The view from the room's windows was truly mesmerizing. A special thanks to Pankaj and Kannu for preparing delicious and scrumptious food, and for their warm hospitality. Overall, it was a five-star experience, and I highly recommend this place for a peaceful and delightful stay!

    They should publish a food menu also... because in homestays I have seen that every additional thing's price is high rocket. So that kills the joy of coming back again...or guides how to manage food from outside. So my request is to keep food prices at a comfortable side...and in a published form.

    The location is difficult to reach if you are using public transport.
