Dear Chowdhury Family, The atmosphere and hospitality of a Homestay are quite different than Lodges and Hotels. The main purpose of a Homestay is to give the customers a homely treatment, and all these depends upon the customers' behaviors. The customers like you always justify the true meaning of a Homestay. Thank you very much for your friendly gesture.

I booked this homestay for 5 days. The rooms are very good, and the people are friendly, educated, and polite. From the time I arrived in Varanasi, they stayed in touch with me and even helped us communicate with the driver in their local language to guide us to the exact location. Initially, we had booked Room 201, but since our ladies were unable to take the stairs, we requested Room 102. They immediately provided it. They also provided hot water whenever we needed it. At one point, there was a motor issue and water supply stopped for some time. The staff worked hard to resolve the problem quickly, and they managed it well. Overall, our experience at Smriti Homestay was excellent.

Dear Ayyalasomayajula Aravind, You are one of those customers whom we can never forget. Each and every member of your family is educated, polite and humble. In that 5 days we couldn't feel you as customers rather you were like our friends and relatives. At last, we can only say that "God Bless You"

Dear Guest, - This is well-known that Varanasi, specifically Shri Kashi Vishwanath Corridor area is a highly congested area. How is this subject concerned with our Homestay? - Varanasi is the only city where tourists like to stay in some adjacent streets instead of main roads. - Our area is known as the heart of city and there is 24 hours of conveyance facility in this area "Gadowlia". Our Homestay is only 250 meters from main road Gadowlia. - We always maintain the rooms neat & clean - Yes, your last point is correct, TV is not available in the room which is clearly mentioned in MakeMyTrip Thank you

Hello Mr. Soumyasanta Bhattacharya, We are very thankful for your nice reviews & ratings. Such reviews & ratings always motivate us to keep continue our best services.
Good Stay
The home stay is good and clean, only concern is it's too inside the residential area of Varanashi, every time you need to walk 500mtrs to reach the temple from your home stay, if any aged people please check with the owner before booking. otherwise everything is good.

Dear Sir, We appreciate your reviews. Although, Varanasi (Kashi) is known for its streets (गली) and most of the travelers prefer their stay in the adjacent streets of Shree Kashi Vishwanath Temple so that they could reach the temple and ghats by walking. As you mentioned that we are only 500 meters away from the Temple & Ghats. We thank you very much and we expect your visit once again on our property.
Good
Good for family to stay but steps are there which are very terrible for old people to climb so old people can't go.

Hello Mr. Sayi Abhinav, We thank you for your comments.
Terrible Stay
They didn't provide towels and soap. We have checked in at 9. 30pm. They didn't provide dinner also. We had to go outside for dinner. We have told yesterday night to provide us tea at 7am to 7. 15am today. Today morning called them as a reminder at 7am, but they have given tea at 8am, for which we were delayed in our plan. Bathroom was having foul smell as there was no exhaust fan. Overall experience was horrible. Thanks & regards piyal halder

Dear Piyal Halder, First of all, I am surprised to see your feedback. As per our experience, we faced a very few customers who tell the lie everything top to bottom. We were supposed to complain on MakeMyTrip about your extreme misbehave. You denied to give us identity proof of one person. You mentioned that you go everywhere in India and don't provide ID proof. Noone ask you about your ID proof. You thrown the menu list also when discussing about your dinner. We mentioned you about the timings of our kitchen facility which is 8AM to 9PM but you vigorously shouted on us. We recognized one of you as a suspected person because you didn't provide Id proof by force. As far as concerned about the towel and hotel soap, we agree that it was not available in advance at your check-in time, but then and there we provided the same. The next day early morning we re-provided you a new towel also because you didn't like the previous towel what was given at the time of check-in. Most importantly, everything is recorded through our CCTV Camera which could be as an evidence on legal ground.
Worst booking experience on make my trip
The property is located in such a vicinity that is not reachable by personal vehicle due to govt imposed traffic rerouting since 1 month but being an outsider i didn't have that clue. If the property has that idea they should not float there property without clear instructions on mmt. They should do offline booking. My parents were travel-ling and they were told to leave vehicle and travel by other means or on foot which their health doesn’t allow. Both the 2 days they were unable to reach property. My booking went unutilized as i have to book another property for both days. I called customer support for refund but they denied it and said we will raise the concern and will call back. I am still waiting for their call

Hello Mr. Shyam Kishore, I am deeply concerned with your feedback. You raised such a point what is a subject of the services of UP Govt. There are 4000 hotels and lodges in this area of Shri Kashi Vishwanath Temple within a radius of 3 kms. According to news, atleast 5 crore tourists and pilgrims would have stayed in hotels and lodges of this area in last one and half months of Mahakumbh. And this area of 3 kms' radius was totally barricaded by local govt. All the guests were forced to walk in this area. Nonetheless to say that most of the pilgrims were above of 50 years old. So, I want to ask you how and why the 5 crore tourists and pilgrims reached and stayed here in last one and half months? Why and how did the pilgrims walk on an average 10 kms in Mahakumbh of Prayagraj and Kashi? This Mahakumbh Mela has been a history in our Hindu community. And almost all the citizens of our country have appreciated the Arrangements, Law & Order, Rules and Regulations of UP Govt. for this Mahakumbh Mela. You are the first person in my knowledge who is raising your fingers towards the hoteliers and UP Govt. who couldn't sleep and eat the meals properly and timely in this Mahakumbh due to unparalleled services. We have audio recordings of all communications what we had with our customers what proves how we spend the time to explain the customers to reach and locate our property. We were on phone full day and night so that we could ease the process. Our Homestay is at the most prominent place of city where almost all the tourists and pilgrims dream to stay. You not only commented about the arrangements of this festival rather you remarked about the cleanness and services also of our Homestay. We had back to back bookings in last one and half months but none of guests raised this point and most importantly most of the guests were through Goibibo-MakeMyTrip only. Almost all the guests appreciated about our efforts except the person like you. to be continued.....
