It started with the check in process which is extremely cumbersome and more elaborate than an airline check in process. They expect the name, mobile, email Id, address and adhaar front and back to be updated for each guest. Along with that, you need to pay partial amount before they confirm the booking (which is okay since most properties request for partial payment before check in but this website has claimed that no prepayment was needed). Anyways, then on our way we requested them for lunch to which we were told that the cook is not there and there is nothing nearby for delivery. We ate outside before reaching the property and upon arrival, we were asked for 1 id again to validate (wonder what they achieved by harassing me to upload all the proofs on their web page. In hindsight, hope they dont get misused!) and also make full payment before we get the key. They could have informed this instead of asking for partial payment and would have reduced the number of times I needed to do this!
The bungalow is spacious, and for that I would say its nice. But the niceties end there.
1. Cooktop has been provided but frequent power outage ensures you cant use it to even make tea.
2. Even if you manage to use the cooktop in between these power outage, there is only 1 big 10 litres vessel which is compatible for making tea, even if you need just one cup! Rest are non stock wok and flat pan.
3. Wet towels were provided since apparently they can afford only 12 towels and the previous guests left 5 hours earlier so they were washed but could not dry before we came (Wow! I have more towels at home!)
4. No hooks or hangers for hanging clothes.
5. There were only 2 glasses (glass) for a bungalow of 3 rooms.
6. There is a full plate, bowl and glass set which is copper coated which is nice but the plates are 14 in diameter so its super heavy!
7. There is no outside area as is claimed on the website. It is just a bungalow with no amenities outside.
