    Spiti Valley Home Stay - Your Home Away From Home 😇

    sumit m.group

    The Spiti Valley Home Stay being hosted by Tsering Madam has indeed been a wonderful place for its hospitality, easy location accessibility and due to the ease of access wrt the amenities & services. Besides that Madam has indeed been a very great Host 😇 We were in awe with Kaza and especially we fell in love with the Spiti Valley. The next time whenever we definitely visit Spiti Valley we will surely plan our stay at the Spiti Valley Home Stay. Also we would recommend each and everyone going through this review to definitely visit the Spiti Valley Home Stay for a better experience 😇

    place was very average, not maintained and cleaned as it should be, host was pretty much rude, did not match the vibe which hostels carry, location was good as in centre of old manali, but you get no valley views here.

    das homestay ist sehr schön, besonders durch die Dachterrasse. es wird gründlich gereinigt bei Abreise der Gäste, das Bad mit warmer Dusche ein Traum. Und das Essen im Restaurant auf der Terrasse ist köstlich und preiswert. absolute Empfehlung! es ist gut zu erreichen, tuktuk aus der Stadt kostet 300 Rupien. in der Nähe sind die beiden Tempel Hadimba Devi Temple und Hadimba Devi Rod

    ajay k.group

    Property location is absolutely fine, it's just bit hasle for one, like in peak hours it's really impossible to take your cars/cab up to the stay. Rest you can walk up to there. View from the stay was very nice and pretty enough. Food was amazing. Beds were good.

    THE WORST HOSTEL EVER

    tushar s.solo

    One of the worst hostel experiences I've ever had. I rarely write reviews, but this place deserves a warning. From the moment I checked in, everything felt off. The staff was unhelpful and borderline rude, acting like I was bothering them with basic questions. The room was dirty, with stained sheets, a musty smell, and visible mold in the bathroom.
