Overall good location and friendly staff.
Pros:

Loved the courteous and ever smiling staff.

Cons:

I wished the room was more airy and brighter. We felt a little suffocated and clostrophobic. We had a family room and paid a decent amount I feel 😊

Serene and beautiful
Pros:

property is located at an amazing spot - they have done it very well - so much greenery - small game tables are a fantastic add to bring back the child in you ! breakfast offering were brilliant as well! Walking distance to the mall road and in about 100 yards in the view point for Kanchendongzha mountain

Cons:

My room window opened in an alley with other houses directly opposite - this is the only thing i dint like - i had keep the curtains closed to maintain privacy
