Overall, this is *the best* Airbnb experience I’ve ever had in my life. I spent two weeks at the lodge, mostly using it as a secondary WFH location for my short “self-exile”, and I wouldn’t regret my choice for a second.
Other reviews have already mentioned quite a few common features and merits of the place, so I’ll just add 2 more points.
1. The lodge was built from ground up by the two hosts themselves in summer, 2021, and you can certainly feel the level of care and thoughtfulness that went into it. It’s so tidy and new and cozy and stylish you’ll find it hard to resist its beauty.
2. It’s literally a stone’s throw from some very nice local indie restaurants. I ordered food several times from “food Dhaba” (I did phone calls followed by a pick-up at the requested time, although they are also on Deliveroo and Uber Eats) and have found them quite good. I even made friends with the owner, which added to the experience (and staying at this lodge is definitely more of an experience than fulfilling one’s basic needs).
Finally, three minor gripes in case these are important to anyone: a) the WiFi connection (forwarded by a router working in repeater mode) isn’t that stable for things like video conferencing - I find myself constantly getting disconnected from Zoom sessions (sometimes it automatically reconnects after a few seconds but not always); b) the shower space feels rather crammed; c) the radiator, although extremely powerful and effective, makes a consistent low-pitched “knocking” sound every few seconds, which really stands out at night and might affect those sleepless souls.
