Terrible experience
They serve terrible breakfast. Quilt were not clean and had spots on them. There is no housekeeping service to clean the room. Overall, a bad experience. Please skip this cottage.

Decent if you want to make it a pitstop
The hotel is decent for its price, there were no towels or condiments in the room and the staff was absent from the property at all times. We came to an empty reception and had to wait until someone arrived to help check us in. The hotel very weirdly accepted only aadhar card as a valid id proof.

Worst stay with zero hospitability
familyTerrible stay and hospitality. Their property is situated too far from any local market and commute is very difficult. They don’t have a restaurant kitchen to serve you food. They bring food from a different property of theirs in a packet and you’ll have to help yourself with all the cutlery which is kept in a working kitchen in the room itself but these are all very unhygienic and had oil stains. Owner provided a handwritten bill with gst amount levied on it stating that we brought it from a different property which is not correct. Bedsheets were also having stains which as per owner are oil stains while getting them dry cleaned. Even after complaining, he did not change the bedsheet. Hygiene is another big concern here. When i checked in there was a cigarette packet left in the room with something stuffed in it. Also, working kitchen had garlic peels left in the trolleys. Overall, i would suggest to not stay here even if you’re offered it for free.

Poor Stay
The hotel was not clean and the photos were of any other hotel room. The washrooms were also not clean. The overall hotel was not good at all.

The property is nice and has a nice view from the outside, but the room wasn't that clean. Not good for non smokers to say. But you can enjoy sitting outside or in the balcony.

Stay was good and heater was working good the care taker was good he is manish thakur but the disadvantage is you need to directly talk to hotel which room you want either with view or not with view coz they give you room based on the price you pay.
