Pros:

The staff especially Robin were kind and courteous offering helpful tips and suggestions to make our stay more enjoyable. He arranged a jeep for a day trip and our guide-driver Anthony was great company - cheerful and ready to share the small details that make each destination unique.

Good place to stay for backpack travellers
Pros:

The surrounding was amazing and the staff were very friendly.

Cons:

The rooms are pretty small 10×10 feet and the bathroom was just 3x3 feet. And if you want A/C in your room you have to pay Rs 1000 extra

A welcoming and comfortable stay in what must be one of the most beautiful parts of Kerala.
Pros:

The gardens and the verandah were wonderful communal spaces. The location was amazing and the staff went out of their way to ensure we had a fabulous 4 night stay with outstanding experiences of walking, exploring and soaking up the breathtaking beauty coupled with the incredible hospitality shown to us by everyone we met. Memories to last a lifetime.

Cons:

Other visitors have mentioned that it is not within walking distance of a restaurant and that’s true but auto-rickshaws and taxis are cheap and easy to arrange or the staff will arrange for meals to be delivered if you request them. The three rooms facing out onto the road also experience some road traffic noise but you can ask for rooms inside or at the rear of the property if it is a concern. As mentioned elsewhere the bathrooms are on the small side but are perfectly serviceable.
