Good hospitality. Staff were very kind. When I mentioned the sheets were dirty they immediately changed it. - Wonderful Kerala breakfast - Shower was functional and had good pressure - Good wifi - Helped us arrange tour with Village Backwaters Cruise in Vaikom - Helped us rent a scooter and provided advice on things to do

- Room AC was very dirty - Initially, the sheets and pillowcases were arranged but dirty

Its a romantic place with swing nets and seats facing the backwater. Breakfast was served by a female staff who seems like a family member who prepared it and served hot. Coffee and tea served with the breakfast was awesome. Never felt that we are in a different space.. Got a homely touch with a nice ambiance around.

It was close to local streets and shops. I asked the guy in charge to cook us simple omelette and toast breakfast which he did.

Main building property looks nice as per photos but suite room and king room it doesn’t. Property is not clean. I booked suite room and as soon as I walked in to the bathroom I could smell damp and wee. Had to ask for toilet paper. Clean the bathroom. Ask for tea spoon, cups in the room. After booking in, they have moved us to a smaller room to allow another booking In to our room to have a big party. Big mistake that I agreed to change. Party was going on until 4:30am. Could not have any sleep. Complained to the property owner just after midnight, it went quiet for a bit but it started again at 2:30 until 4:30. The way I was treated but the owner of the property was totally unacceptable. I would not stay there again even if they were to offer free stay.
