FRATERNITY HOMESTAY

We went for a 3 day trip but landed up extending it because of this amazing homestay. It truly has the best ambiance and view. If you are a nature lover, this place is all that you need. The food is amazing and also the brothers were a lovely hosts. The food was also so tasty and flavourful. Talking about safety, you guys won't even feel that you are in a different place, it feels like home! The bonus was free pickup and drop from and to Mal.

This is a great location next to the Japanese temple, the view from the room was excellent and guy who manage this property (Keviv) very helpful. Best experience ever.

The host brothers are wonderful. They provided prompt support every time we needed. The terrace view was absolutely amazing! Also, they provided one time pickup and drop which was really really convenient.

I won't say not like, however a hot water kettle would have been excellent in Darjeeling's cold!

The host, both Keviv and Kevin, were so much accomodating that I felt like home. Darshan, the guy serving us is gem of a person! The location is perfect for someone who wants to stay away from the hustle bustle of the town. And the view, 10/10.

Room location, view from the window, hospitality.

Nothing except the view from windows and fantastic service of Darshan the caretaker.

You have to climb up & down 56 high stairs to reach the property or to go out. It's in a remote place near Japanese buddha temple. Everytime to go to town, market or mall area you hv to spend minimum ₹300 x2 on Taxis. Food is very very costly , but that uncle cook is useless, there are 2/3 jhupri dhaba like things about 300 mtrs up/down hill, you can hv your breakfast and lunch there by climbing 56x 2 stairs. May be the owner bros Keviv & Kelvin were good initially as per the earlier guests reviews, but once they got the taste of money, their head turned and started taking all Guests for granted that whatever they provide guests has to accept that only and pay in full. Except just before leaving , last 3 days, water flow in the tap was very less, used to take half hour to fill one bucket, their caretaker didn't know how to repair that. Towel, bedsheets,soaps once given during entering, thereafter never changed or supplied fresh, although we paid same amount for 3 days. No tea, coffee sugar/milk etc in the room , not even a hot water electric kettle was supplied, hot water supplied on request by a thermal flask only. No proper entrance, no trace of any reception. And the only guest room on rooftop is made out of only corrugated sheet , there is not a single brick work made wall only. One storm or strong wind will simply fly away the room or its false ceiling roof. Mug handle, cupboard lock was broken , owner is not interested to check all these. Room carpet is NOT pasted /taped properly, we got tripped few times, after pointing out to the owner keviv, instead of arranging to rectify it, he started arguing, very very wrong attitude. But the only name I must mention is just a superb person. .And that is Darshan. A Young boy works there as caretaker, there is no comparison about his service. If you are a honeymoon couple or a poet, don't want to move much, then may take a try there, else just keep away.

It was good and hygienic.
