    The staff were very friendly and welcoming. The check-in and checkout processes were hassle-free. The rooms were very clean. The view from outside was also amazing. There is a restaurant very near to the property and also a small cafe with VR...

    I had an amazing stay, it was super clean and peaceful Mr. Mirudhun Lal explained a lot about in and around Ooty which helped us plan our trip even better.

    The location is too good, right on the ooty road. They have tea garden and a small treking can be done. We observed a wild deer grazing on their tea field. Rooms are good, clean and surely recommend it. Price was decent.
