To avoid !

It wasn't a nice stay at all !
The room was dirty with old sheets and blankets.
The owner don't care at all about his guests and he just says thank you when we gave him his 1200 roupies.
And our night was noisy with a screaming dog and tuk tuks all the night in his courtyard.
If you have the choise, choose an another place (The jungle view was great)
Home stay worth

The stay is ok and worth money. The location is centrally located. The caretaker is cordial and the service by him is ok. It can be recommended for a short stay as the hotel facilities are not expected at a home stay
An overall average stay

I would rater the homestay at Periyar Seven Hills as overall average. The following are the observations:-
Pros:-
(i) The environment is quite calm and serene;
(ii) Breakfast provided was on payment basis, but was good
(iii) warm water facility was there.
(iv) Mr Raja, the owner was very friendly and could arrange Jungle safari for us
Cons:-
(i) The bed was not very comfortable (Foam mattress), the bedsheet needs to be renewed;
(ii) No provision of Internet or WiFi;
(iii) Cable TV had majorly Regional channels with nil English and two Hindi Channels
(iv) Location of property is very interior to the city with narrow lanes.
Overall, an average site, recommended for one night stay.
Very bad experience

I paid 1200/per night but the rooms were horrible. very old blankets. stinky towels, small portable TV , no room services. The owners were horrible. They were not kind, they were demanding . I have never seen a couple being so rigid.. Total Terrific experience.
Excellent homestay at Kumily, Thekkady

Though it is a homstay, but excellent facilities for staying. It has large specious, neet and clean rooms in reasonable price. 4 persons can be accomodated in room. The only minus point is that it is inside a residencial area with narrow road, but 4 wheelrs can go and park easily. I suggest to try it.
