We were disappointed with our stay. Staff was inexperienced
Pros:

The house boat has a nice look with good decor and furnishings and comfortable beds

Cons:

The staff was inefficient, lazy, unproductive and not trained to handle tourists. They did not respect the guests time and requests in timely manner. The food was substandard. Even though they were courteous but they either did not have training or resources to take care of guests.
There were cobwebs in our room which we showed the staff

Superb
Pros:

The staff was very prompt and helpful. The houseboat was beautiful and very comfortable.

Cons:

The shikara partnered with the houseboat had a very aggressive approach to making money from the residents, trying to charge double the amount for a ride.

Lovely luxurious stay at the serene Nigeen Lake
Pros:

Located at the serene Nigeen Lake, the luxurious upper deck was a delight to stay one night. Provides you complete privacy, the view and the ambience of the upper deck is stunning. Staff was lovely and courteous. Suhail (the owner) went above and beyond to help ensure the stay was comfortable. Will advice to do the sunset dal like Shikha ride. Worth it!

Cons:

The lower deck rooms need work. The upholstery and the linen were dirty though when asked to change the staff did so promptly. The upper deck bathroom had a leak

A good one night experience.
Pros:

The location is on the quiter Nigeen Lake. The shikara ride to & from the Nigeen Ghat was surreal with Kashmiri songs sung by the boatman. The houseboat was comfortable - however, due to a power outage at night the heater wouldnt work & we were literally freezing. The breakfast & dinner we had were tasty & value for money. The service provided by the manager Omar & the houseboat keeper was exceptional. Have to watch out for the vendors who literally enter the houseboat to sell you their wares. Overall a good one night experience.
