Disappointing
Pros:

The location is nice and staff arranged a kayaking tour for us. For extra costs he arranged dinner and breakfast.

Cons:

The owner was very rude to my family and did not understand our situation. He also made discriminating remarks about my family friend.

We were sleeping in some new rooms that looked like were built the day before. Thin walls, small, looked like a construction site. In my sisters room was some nasty Web of an insect or something. No towels available and very small hard beds.

Very good
Pros:

We stayed there for a night. The place is so good and in front of the place you will get the boat service. The person who is handling the property is so cool. In this place, the boat service timings are 4:30am and 4pm. They have only two timings but it's worth it. To reach Munroe island we got down at Kollam and got an auto which is too costly. So if you need any pick and drop services, that's also possible, check with the property. From this place, the railway station and bus depot are so close (just 500m). Overall a good stay and enjoyed the boating also.

Bad
Cons:

I booked a room for 615 inr and my friend for 800 inr. When we arrived the owner ( older man) informed me my room is not available because somebody extended his stay. He said I can have a room for 1000 inr. We tried during 1 hour, my friend was speaking local language mayalayam but finally we left. I think it's not fair. We found another place to stay but it can spoil your trip. Its not professional at all even the location is ok but we didn't see the rooms. I would avoid.

Beware- sexual predator
Pros:

The property is ok but the host is sexual predator.

Cons:

The host is a sexual predator. He forced me to hug him, touched my breasts and back, he forced himself into my room. Beware especially if you are solo female traveller. He should be banned from booking com

Worst experience in the stay , road connectivity is very poor, facilities offered in the booking not provided by the property. Rooms alloted roof opp , which was constructed over terrace with tin sheet and plywood. Windows have no any curtains , which is too affected sleep in night The approach road is very poor condition , you can't travel in your car. Breakfast was included in booking , but just drinking water not provided by the property.
