"This a small boutique hotel in Assi ghat area, almost like a guest house or homestay. Very accessible. Room is good sized with one Issue. Room has one window which opens into the main hotel corridor and so effectively cannot be opened at all. There's no natural light or possibility of fresh air. No common area too, just an enclosed dining room. Overall a decent experience. "

This is actually a very ordinary staying destination for mediocre people, who plans to stay in Varanasi at low cost. The owner of the Guest House is Mr. Pradip...

Not accessible by car / taxi , only by boat from nearby Ghat. Location is only positive - directly next to the Ganges. Given that the price is relatively expensive by even Western standards it is frankly better to pay more for a first class facility. "
