Pros:

The homestay offers spacious and comfortable rooms with separate entrances, ensuring good privacy. The property has a nice outdoor seating area and a calm atmosphere. It is well located near Varkala Cliff helipad, making it convenient for exploring the area.
The stay was budget-friendly, and the host, Vishnu was extremely friendly and supportive throughout. Great value for money and a comfortable place to stay.

Pros:

The location was good and that’s about it. This is the first bad review I’ve given, the room we got given was dirty, the bathroom had a razor and dirty towel left so it was clearly used and not cleaned. We asked for a new room which they were hesitant about but eventually changed us to a room that still didn’t feel that clean. No toilet roll, one towel left, had to ask for another. No soap, no water.

Good experience as AC was working.
Pros:

Rooms are small in size. There is street aside Sajjoy hotel that goes to seabay bliss. Only two wheeler can reach that place. Overall one caretaker Vishu will treat you good but the last day will feel change in his tone and behaviour. If you need pocket friendly place then go for it otherwise there are many better properties than this on North cliff itself.

Cons:

No water, bottle has to be purchased from day 1.
Bed is somehow directly. Bathroom
Has ants 🐜 which will feel you like pooping in jungle.
Tap has current leakage Whenever gyser will be on.

the stay is not worth the money we paid.
Pros:

property is very close to north cliff but way to property is very narrow and not easy to travel by car.

Cons:

We encountered several significant issues during our stay:
​Inaccessible Location & Parking: There is no parking at the property. Furthermore, the homestay is located down an incredibly narrow lane that is inaccessible by car. We were forced to carry our luggage for nearly around one kilometer, which was exhausted and unacceptable.
​Major Plumbing Failures: There was no running water in the taps or the showers. Additionally, the health faucet in the bathroom was broken and unusable.
​Lack of Basic Amenities: Clean drinking water was not provided at the property.
​Poor Quality Linens: The towels provided were in pathetic condition and completely non-absorbent.
​Given that the actual value of this stay felt no higher than Rs 700 per night, based on these conditions, paying Rs 11,600 ( 3 rooms for a night) is unreasonable. The property lacked the basic utilities and accessibility required for a functional homestay.
