“Well lit, airy, clean rooms with a homely vibe to its decor. Hosted by the most gracious madhabi di and her delicious food, it is a piece of home away from home.”
“Fantastic apartment. Very clean and comfortable, slept really well. Aniket was really lovely and helpful. Only stayed for one night on our way to Darjeeling but would happily stay for longer.”
“This place really reflects the charm and colorful sophistication of Kolkata as I experienced it. Soumik really has an attention to detail, both aesthetically and hospitality wise. From the beautiful paintings that adorn the wall, the carefully curated furniture, to the copper water vessel and yes and especially, the squeegee in the bathroom! I only discovered this gem as I was leaving Kolkata, but easily would have made it my hq as I worked in and explored the city. I dare say I felt like a Bengali intellectual staying at this place, much better than staying in some faceless hotel!”
“As I am on strict diet, I got the privilege to have everything which should be included in my breakfast. I liked the service rendered by Raj, Gopal and Amit of the kitchen department and also by Ankita from receptionist.”

“The standout feature was the hosts.
The apartment was spacious and charming, with everything you could need and I felt perfectly safe. The views from the many windows displayed greenery and local life. The local area was cool with a tropical feel, small windy streets and interesting architecture. Very convenient location for the airport.
There are attractions within a short taxi/auto drive.
The hosts were amazingly helpful and assisted me to find my way around. Even taking me to get a SIM card etc. I was thrilled to receive a hot morning coffee after a long flight the night before. As an elderly female solo traveller I was relieved to know they would make sure I arrived safely.
Thank you both so very much.”
