The good - very clean hotel, rooms were good, beds were comfy, location was ok. Autos are readily available nearby. There's a small shop close by and it only cost about Rs30 for an auto into town, 5 mins away, or a 15-20 min walk.
The BAD
- went there in Jan (3 rooms, 2 nights, deluxe rooms with AC) and the place was absolutely freezing!! On asking for a heater we were told it would be an extra Rs 500 per room.
- As with many places in India now, the water is heated by solar. In winter, with fog and cloudy skies a routine experience, hot water was not available. Arriving tired after a long journey at 11am, and finding no hot water and freezing cold rooms, let's just say this was extremely disappointing. To their credit the staff organized a wood/coal fire to heat water the next morning - great hot showers then.
- Expedia advertised a 'Full buffet breakfast'. Guess what we got? Tea and a slice of toast and jam. On making a fuss about this (about 8 bain-marie's were set up at the dining room) we were told that buffet's were only when the hotel was full, and even in that case only toast was offered in the bain-maries. What a joke!!! And a rip-off, considering the hotel was chosen because it did offer a "Full Buffet Breakfast".
- The hotel manager was not to be seen anywhere till the last few hours of our stay. The staff, while friendly enough, were not very competent. Checking in 8 people was tedious.
-(Poor) Wifi access was only available in reception /dining areas
