Our room was quiet and comfortable. Great view over the Ganga river. Our host (hotel manager) was a wealth of knowledge regarding advice for foreign tourists staying safe in Varanasi and general local knowledge. Home cooking every night was a delight to come back to in the evening after a busy day out seeing the many sites.

I didn’t like the minefield of alleyways which we had to battle through to reach the hotel.Fortunately we got a guide from the local market area to assist us without this assistance we would have really struggled.You can’t drive up to the hotel or take any form of transport you have to walk through very narrow passageways crowded with, motor bikes, cows, goats, beggars and people cooking and trying to sell you things you don’t want.It stinks so bad of urine, food, animals and poop. However when you reach the hotel it is an amazing place, authentic in every way,the real deal for a true adventure and a life long memory.

The location is exceptional. You can have a good view of the mighty ganges from the room balcony. Not all room types offer this view so be sure while making the booking. Since the hotel is situated right at the ghat, it is far from the main road and requires a walk of around 15 minutes to reach from the main road. The hotel will help you in carrying your luggage from the main road till hotel and back. But the positive point is that many of the major temples are around the hotel including Kashi Vishwanath, which is also very close. Since it is at ghat, you can just get down the hotel and reach the ghat and book boat rides from there or have a bath in the Holy Ganges. We were a family of 5 including a toddler and required special services like toddler food and milk, which was taken care by the hotel v.well. Mr. Kushagra is the caretaker here and he goes out of the way to help every guest. We have had many other incidences where he helped us during our 3 days stay. The food served at the hotel was delicious, hygenic and healthy including breakfast and dinner. Overall, it was a great stay and experience for us.

Although the location of the property is fantastic, but to reach the facility on foot for good 900 meters was a bummer. I was traveling with my old parents and they really struggled to reach the guest house. Again the location, room, staff and owner everyone one is welcoming but if you are traveling with old people, or people who don't like to trek and travel on foot, it will be a spoiler.

Location and proximity to Mahadev darshan gate. Close the owner, he was quite warm and accommodative.

- Convenient Location - Kush, the owner. Good conversations and took care of my requirements well - Some home made food if required

- Repair work going on some rooms gives it an unkept look - House keeping was not done every day. On Day 3 it was done in request

The rooms were spotless, simple and comfortable. The air-conditioning was welcome after a hot day. The host was great and helped us with advice and taxis/porters.

Nothing. It was great.
