Doporucujem na kratkodoby pobyt 2-3 noci
Pros:

Vyborna lokalita, blizko utesu, kaviarni, restauracii a obchodov. Ochotny personal voda a uteraky na dennej baze.

Cons:

Okna sa nedaju otvarat a vyhlad je na iny dom v bloku. Kupelna by potrebovala trochu viac vydrhnut. Ale je to celkovo indicky problem, my v Europe sa na ciste, pozerame inak.

Overall, I had a very comfortable and pleasant stay at Avanthi Homestay and would gladly return.
Pros:

Very nice and relaxed homestay. The hosts are friendly and helpful, but never intrusive. The room was clean and comfortable, with small useful things like a kettle, drinking water and access to a fridge.

It has a calm, welcoming atmosphere and is a great place to stay if you want something more personal than a hotel. I really enjoyed my stay here and would happily come b

Pros:

The owner and the manager Akhil very customer friendly, the room is very clean and neat, it's on the cliff itself and best place and within budget. I have asked for a birthday surprise for my fiancee and they helped me out with the cake and flowers. I would definitely recommend this not only for helping me out with whatever i asked for but its also on the cliff and walkable distance to autostand and other necessities. I feel it's best than any other on the cliff. It's was very exceptional experience from this hotel. I didn't take any photos of the room but the photos that hotel are the same without any modification.
