    Delightful. Restful. Central. Clean.”

    The best shower we had during our month in India. Mr Shibo made excellent restaurant recommendations and booked massages for us. Room was spacious and comfortable with sublime views out over the game reserve. We were walking distance to everything we needed. Be careful of the monkeys. One walked into our room. Definitely don’t feed them. This was a great place to unwind. The rooms are at the back of the building and very quiet, but the front entrance is on the main street so not remote at all. Ask for Room 5. On 2nd floor with a corner balcony. You will be very happy here.

    Apart from momentary dismay on arrival, as the view you get of the building is not the most flattering, I had a very happy stay. Excellent restaurant directly across the road, excellent massage place almost directly across the road, good taxi service arranged through the owners who are really lovely people. Oh, but watch out for that monkey who stole my lunch off the balcony...
