A perfect transit stop on your way to spiti valley circuit.
Pros:

It's a perfect backpackers, riders and small family transit place. The place has positive vibe, overlooking the narkanda valley. The hatu peak ia about 6 km from the hotel. The main market is 50 metres walking distance.
There is a recreation cum dining area with table tennis and indoor games. Nice english country music

Cons:

Nothing specific. There is no lift so u will need to cart ur luggage it's a self help.

Pros:

- The beds where clean

Cons:

- The beds were too small for Western people
- Food drinks ordering is only possible with an annoying website
- No heating is included in price. The heating you pay for is noisy.
- View from room was bad and did not meet expectations.
- Communication with accommodation was not possible. First, you get in contact with an automatic chat-bot and with a very unhelpful centralized "support" center. Only after leaving a negative review will they contact you with the request to remove your review. Everything is policy and cost driven, and there is no room left for customer service.
