Let me first state that it is not a homestay but a guesthouse. For homestay, the family needs to be physically present for a personal touch, warmth and hospitality. Perhaps the owner lives in haldwani, while i appreciate her prompt responses to our whatsapp messages/inquiries, it would have felt much better and warmly, if the host had called us even once on her own. But it never happened. The right-side view of the property is bit disturbing because there is construction going and one could see iron rods at the neighbouring terrace which blocks clear line of sight for photography (himalaya peaks are visible on the right-hand side. But i understand that this is beyond one’s control. Rest, the rooms are quite pretty, nicely done, spacious and well maintained. The terrace offers amazing view, although the same view is possible from most of the properties located there. Given there are amazing nearby eateries, this is a big thumbs up for the property. Overall, it’s a good property, but next time, if i revisit kasardevi, i would definitely want to explore other accommodations. Please add the image below
