Very poor quality homestay it was. The owner did not even gave us drinking water (can u imagine this). No food arrangements were made even I had told him that it will be late for us to reach there by flight that day. At 9:30 in the night, we were shocked to hear that we had to search for a place to eat food.

Somehow we managed that, but while sleeping at night, it was another bitter surprise for us that we had no blankets or clothsheets to on the beds. When asked, he said you can use bedsheets for that purpose!! How weird. Is this what they call a homestay??

When asked for an AC room, he just doubled the rent (from 550 to 1100). Does an AC consume so much electricity in a night ????.

On the next morning itself, we decided to move out.

If you read this, please DO NOT opt to stay there.

Moreover, this place is 46 km from the airport as oppose to what the owner say is 26 km.
