Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an accommodation that you booked through our platform if you stayed there, or if you got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize in detecting fake reviews submitted to our platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, or the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and other similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties, and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

IndiaIts 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.

IndiaFood 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 !

IndiaLocation 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.

IndiaI 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!

IndiaThey 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.
