Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Very friendly staff. Excellent hospitality. Ideal for family stay. Only dislike was location as it was bit off the road - we had senior citizens with us so walking uphill was bit difficult.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Wrong location given on map, it literally take you to a wall on top of a hill, however the property is 3-4kms far from the location on map that too with narrow roads. Property condition is also too bad, rooms are dirty with damp walls, broken floor and broken beds. It's worse than a 1 star property.
