2/5 Sajit J. 1 year ago on Google
Stayed
here
for
a
night
with
two
friends
on
a
mid-October
weekend.
We
were
given
a
wooden
cabin
which
can
accommodate
3
pax
without
adding
an
extra
bed
on
request.
We
were
charged
INR
6K
per
night
(1K
extra
for
3rd
person)
including
complimentary
breakfast
only.
Not
sure
if
they
already
have
cabins
/
rooms
to
accommodate
3
people.
Anyways,
this
seemed
like
a
thoughtful
touch.
To
summarize
the
experience:-
What’s
good?-
-The
city
view
from
this
property
is
what
it's
all
about.
The
view
of
the
Salem
City
at
night,
from
the
view
point
(not
the
room/cabin)
at
the
property
is
priceless.
Don't
know
about
any
other
resorts
which
are
at
the
same
altitude,
if
they
have
a
similar
view
to
offer.
-Staff
seemed
friendly
and
tried
to
attend
to
our
requests
diligently.
For
eg:-
Staff
lent
an
umbrella
upfront
without
being
asked
for
one
when
it
rained.
Staff
climbed
all
the
way
uphill
on
the
back
of
a
cleaning
request
after
spillage
in
the
room.
-
Altitude
at
which
the
resort
is
placed
adds
to
the
weather
/
feel
/
view
compared
to
other
resort
options
which
are
placed
much
lower
on
the
mountain.
-Decent
car
parking
facility
(not
covered
but
could
accommodate
up
to
10
cars
at
a
time)
with
a
good
approach
road.
-
Heads
up
provided
by
management
as
to
what
to
expect
and
what
is
N/A
at
the
property,
via
mail
once
booking
is
confirmed.
Like
the
lack
of
cell
phone
network,
unavailability
of
TV
in
the
room,
having
to
carry
booze
from
outside.
This
is
useful.
-A
few
friendly
pet
dogs
that
give
company
to
the
staff
in
these
hills.
They
welcome
guests
at
the
gate.
They
are
so
used
to
seeing
random
people
/
guests
that
they
behave
as
though
a
staff.
No
curiosity/sniffing
around
when
they
see
a
stranger,
like
usual
pets.
What
isn’t?
-
The
climb
to
the
cabin
uphill
is
a
task
especially
with
luggage.
Really
makes
you
want
to
think
twice
before
stepping
out
of
the
cabin.
A
basic
lift
(like
the
ones
you
see
at
a
under
construction
building
site)
would
be
really
helpful.
-There
are
no
hand
railings
provided
(not
even
a
makeshift
one
with
wood/bamboo)
for
the
makeshift
stone
steps
uphill
to
the
cabin/room.
This
makes
is
it
really
dangerous
especially
while
alighting
the
stairs
at
night
and
when
it
rains.
The
steps
become
slippery
and
it
feels
ike
an
accident
just
waiting
to
happen.
-
Poor/No
lighting
at
the
makeshift
stairs.
Again,
difficult
and
dangerous
at
night.
Think
twice
before
stepping
out
especially
when/if
it
rains.
-Cell
phone
signal
is
limited
/
N/A
most
of
the
times.
Digital
payments
might
not
work
as
expected.
Carrying
cash
might
be
a
good
idea.
Wi-Fi
barely
works
when
/
if
you
manage
to
connect
to
it
from
the
room.
You
have
to
climb
down
to
the
Kitchen
/
Dining
area
if
you
need
good
Wi-Fi
signal.
So
consider
yourself
cut
off
(literally)
from
the
rest
of
the
world
during
your
time
here
(unless
you
manage
to
find
some
network
in
your
room).
Jio
seems
to
have
some
bare
minimum
network.
Airtel
and
VI
are
patchy
to
none.
-
Basic
expectation
after
paying
6K
a
night
–
a
clean
bathroom.
But
no!
The
bathrooms
did
not
appear
clean
/
had
stains.
Understand
the
property
is
in
between
a
jungle
but
dead
/
live
insects,
bugs,
worms
all
around
the
bathroom
all
the
time
to
keep
you
company
while
you
attend
natures
call.
If
you
are
squeamish
/
phobic
about
such
things
then
look
elsewhere.
-Western
toilet
commode
had
a
huge
crack
which
spiders
called
home.
Remembered
the
tarantula
scene
from
“We’re
the
Millers”
movie.
-
The
bathroom
Shower
lacked
water
pressure
for
a
thorough
satisfying
bath.
The
shower
hot
and
cold
water
mixer
didn’t
work
as
it’s
supposed
to.
-
Room
facilities
are
average
/
poor.
Basic
beds
/
mattress,
blankets.
Nothing
fancy
but
can
be
better.
No
wardrobe
or
a
luggage
stand,
No
bedside
plug
points
/
bedside
tables,
no
cloth
hangers
in
the
bathroom.
Cloth
hanger
in
the
room
was
broken.
No
mini
fridge
if
you
are
planning
to
chill
your
drinks.
The
door
latch
sometimes
doesn’t
work
so
you
have
to
lock
yourself
using
the
key
from
inside
the
room
before
going
to
bed.
-
The
food
at
this
place
was
nothing
less
than
terrible.
