I stayed over one week in this guesthouse and I really enjoyed it. I had room number 8 on the upper floor little bit apart from the others and had own balcony. Nice view over the green lushy garden. Service was good, Ram is excellent so are the family. I will definately stay here again if I come to Mammalapuram.

Very relaxing and neat seashore stop when traveling south India! Ask for soap and towel they have it, Russian (спросите Валю)) and English speaking, friendly staff. Mosquito nets in some rooms. Nice garden between you and the sea shore.

We were surprised by this hotel given the Rough guide's praise. Staff were friendly but verging on intrusive. Food was good. Rooms very basic. No sea view. Mosquitos love the guests sooo much. Electricity supply is dodgy so mosquito killers do not function. I would not recommend this hotel unless you are on a very tight budget. Try the Masalla... More

I would rate it 2,5 - it has potential to be a good budget guesthouse but right now I think you could get a better deal for that money in Mamallapuram. It's friendly and good location but sheets and towels didn't smell good, bad case of mosquitos, balcony door wouldn't close properly, no bin in the room, breakfast (included in... More
