The family who are running this place are super nice people. They have laundry at the location - most of the days you can see them hard working.
The room is simple, the location is great. Definitely great value for money.

Pros:

I had an excellent time at Joshoda home stay! The family was welcoming and I felt at ease as soon as I arrived. They were understanding when a few things arose unexpectedly. The area was a perfect location for my course and other activities. The room had all the necessities. Highly recommend 10/10.

Made to feel very welcome, like part of the family, very accommodating
Pros:

The family are amazing hosts, the location is right in the middle of loads of facilities and ashrams for classes. Good local choice of amenities. The price is good, accommodated to enable remote working. A whisky partner lol, taken along to local weddings to enjoy festivities with the family x

Cons:

No view of mountains, found it cold during the winter period, although extra blankets were provided.

Safe, welcoming, made us feel one of the family
Pros:

The host family are lovely, kind, welcoming and kept us safe. They still provide electricity even when there are power cuts cause they have a generator. The internet is stable and always available, which is unusual in this area, also good 5G reception in this area. Always available to ask them for help or advice. There is a shared fridge and balcony which is useful.

Cons:

There is excessive construction happening all over Tapovan, which is extremely noisy, but not their fault or under their control.

A lovely welcoming family, safe and secure.
Pros:

Good stable internet, very accommodating for work needs. Super friendly made us feel part of the family. Having a small stove in the room is very handy for making hot drinks. Felt totally safe and secure ready to offer information, advice and help. Easy to get hold of at any time of the day or evening. Having a balcony area is nice too, along with a fridge to store milk and to keep water cold. Good location for cafes, shops and groceries. Lots of options of places to eat and the occasional traditional wedding. Taxis and tuk tuks go right to the door of the homestay.

Cons:

No view from balcony, overlooked by another hotel, which can’t be helped. But balcony is spacious and has a table and chairs.

Pros:

Jashoda is a slice of heaven - a friendly, peaceful, very clean and spacious homestay with delicious homecooked meals (and original 5 grain chapatis) and a perennial homely atmosphere that permeates amongst the hustle.and bustle of fast developing Tapovan.

It is 5mins walk from the main road and surrounded by juice and coffee bars, local and foreign eateries and yoga ashrams in every direction only a couple minutes walk away. In-house laundry and gas stove in the rooms, with fan and A/C.

I will return when/if I am so lucky.

Warm and friendly homestay
Pros:

The room was simple but very clean. Great laundry service. Super friendly and helpful family. I would definitely go back in another period

Cons:

Only inconvenient was some construction works on the other side of the road that made it noisy and dusty during the day (September 2023), but definitely not their fault

Good stay
Pros:

Hotel is good. Staff also good but you have to remind them for basic things like drinking water. No phone in the room, you have to contact directly. Mountain view is very limited as tall buildings have been made in front of the balcony. A gas stove is there for cooking. Electricity problem was there, AC does not work on alternate arrangements, Fan and light were working 24×7 on inverter. The secret waterfall is 3-4km from this location.
Overall good stay.

Cons:

No phone in the room
TV not there
AC 24*7 not available
