    Good homestay in kodaikanal for business or travel. Had booked stay for 2 nights and had to extend the stay for two more nights, there was no Hassle. Had a pleasant experience staying for 4 nights The room had a nice view, Housekeeping were good. The buffet options were less but tasty.

    They were extremely accommodating and allowed us to check in early at like 10am. We got to Home Stay super early and I didn’t wanna wait. So this was a big plus. The service was exceptional as well. The rooms were clean, very comfortable, and the staff were amazing. They went over and beyond to help make our stay enjoyable. I highly recommend this homestay for anyone visiting downtown. Mainly the homely food which they prepare there was Exotic.
