Not worth the money spent.

himanshu g.group

The rooms allocated were located in a remote place. The contact guy was making excuses when we asked for location of the place. There was no water in one of the rooms the next morning and when we called the caretaker, they asked us to use the outside washroom. With the same prices, we could have gotten better place to stay there with internet connectivity included.

Affordable, good for short stay

prasanna n.group

The room was affordable and clean. Also it was very near to a viewpoint (myra point. Since, it is not marked in google maps, you may have to call and ask the property owner for actual location. Not luxurious, but good enough to rest there, while visiting the hill station.

The stay at balaji niwas was overall very good. What comes first as a match winner was the dinner cooked by the host. It was just yummy. It was extremely delicious. The rooms were not as small as some of the ratings mentioned. The cot was decent. The attached bathroom could have been better with western facility in todays time and also adequate ventilation. The host was a nice person and helpful. It was a good experience. The distance to the mall road wasnt much. I would recommend this for any shorts stays.

Hygienic homely stay, great food and location

vivek n.family

This homestay is located near the myra point(just 2 mins away. It is extremely hygienic with cleanliness kept to the standard of one's home. The food was also very tasty. Nothing fancy though you don't need that here. People were very friendly and helpful. The best part is if you start your matheran trek by catching the sunrise and follow it towards the west, you get to walk a downward slope almost all the way through. Which we did because we stayed here.
