Iam not recommend staying at this guest house to anyone. Unfortunately, there was literally nothing about my stay that I
Pros:

Iam not recommend staying at this guest house to anyone. Unfortunately, there was literally nothing about my stay that I liked—not even a single aspect I could feel neutral about.

To start, the owner attempted to charge us extra for a late check-out, even though we had informed them in advance via WhatsApp and phone calls on the same morning. Despite our efforts, they did not respond to any of our messages or calls.

Additionally, the room did not have any of the facilities mentioned in the listing. The door lacked a proper lock, and there was a significant gap between the door and the floor, large enough for rats or other pests to enter.

Overall, my experience was extremely disappointing, and I would strongly advise others to avoid this guest house.

Cons:

the room did not have any of the facilities mentioned in the listing. The door lacked a proper lock, and there was a significant gap between the door and the floor, large enough for rats or other pests to enter.

Location is great but the place is not worth the money and full of ant
Pros:

Location only

Cons:

The place is full of ant, and spiders - the owner try charge you more money at the end of the stay. Please be aware that for any additional thing they will bring you (toilet paper, tea) they will charge you at the end of your stay. I would avoid

Kind personal
Pros:

Anil is a very kind and approachable person. He provides you with all the information he can and recommends many places to visit. As for food, he offers a lot. Honestly, I highly recommend him for short stays.

Cons:

The room is very warm. But that's a matter of the weather, not the host.

Passable
Pros:

20 minutes walking from the bus station in the hills. Not many moscitos.Laundry service.

Cons:

All very basic. Ants everywhere.
They charged 10% service charge on everything which is clearly a rip-off.

Clean, homely and a great host
Pros:

Very clean room, with a new bathroom. A good mosquito net, great breakfast and a very very nice host :)

Cons:

There was no hand soap and no towels or warmer blanket (since it gets cold at night, this time of year)
But nothing serious and it didn’t really bother us…
