We wanted to stay here on a recommendation but unfortunately they were full! Even so, Dr Jain organised us another guest house to stay in and welcomed us into their guesthouse to eat at any time! Mrs Jain is a fantastic cook and we enjoyed the food and conversation here on several occasions. Dr Jain and his wife are beautiful, honest people and so so very helpful and welcoming. They let us know how much we should pay for an auto rickshaw to various destinations and gave us advice on train ticket etc. I will try to stay here any time I go back to Sarnath. More

The room and the bathroom were very clean, but for 450 Rs a night (after bargainning, 500 Rs announced), we missed the hot shower and the TV which is a standard now in most Indian guesthouses for around 250 Rs.

Last thing, Doctor Jain has a program with a french association for education of kids in a school nearby. We were not concerned but we were shocked to hear he was doing a "discount" of 50 Rs on the room and 20 Rs on the...
