The place does look better than in the pictures. The kitchen is a bit impractical with little counter space. The host, Nikhil, lives upstairs and you can hear every step, every time their baby cries or dog barks, or the toilet flushes. However, at night it is quiet and you can only hear lovely crickets and frogs. Soft mattresses. You have no access to the thermostat, but you have two heaters and two fans. Two big thumbs up for high-quality Internet at around 400 Mbps. Great host!
