It was our first homestay experience, but memorable. Hosts were welcoming and helpful. Kitchen facilities were excellent. Do not depend on google to find the property, instead give a call to gupta ji (owner) after reaching solan. The backside views are excellent, though the property is a bit hard to find. You can bring your own raw material to cook food. Microwave, utensils, fridge, cook top, spices etc are all available. Rs 400 extra for bonfire and rs 100 for parking. Overall an unforgettable experience.
