We were two people who planned to visit Varanasi, but my friend was not able to make it. Actually, I had missed my flight at the departure point, which was scheduled for around 11:40 pm. (The homestay owner, Mr. Deepak Ji, had already informed me that he had told the caretaker to receive me, but since I was running late, I couldn’t make it on time.) I then took another flight departing at 6:50 am and arrived in Varanasi at 8:00 am. I reached the homestay around 9:00 am.
The caretaker was not there (he had gone for a bath), but this was absolutely not the fault of Mr. Deepak Ji. He guided me over the phone to find the keys and the room, which was very helpful. The next day, he even offered me a complimentary room upgrade with an attached washroom, which I really appreciated.
Caretaker Vishal bhaiya is a nice person, but he is quite talkative😅.
The homestay itself is good. Power backup is available. I faced just two small issues:
1.The Wi-Fi wasn’t working for a few hours. I informed Mr. Deepak Ji, and he immediately took action to restore it.
2.The washroom exhaust fan was not working. I told Vishal bhaiya(caretaker) about it, and he mentioned that he had already informed Mr. Deepak Ji regarding this issue.
Overall, I’d give this place 4.5 stars, but I’ll round it up to 5 stars for Mr. Deepak Ji, as he is a very helpful person.
