    A bit better room facilities with toiletries & water bottle would have made the stay more smooth.

    It's a normal homestay, with good view from common balcony has terrace also. Location wise it's very near to virupshka temple rent cycle to explore south hampi, rest vitthala temple can be travelled by foot for 2kms approx, ferry point, coracle rides also nearby.

    The fan in the room was so noisy that I hardly slept some nights, the room was very hot and the only way to cool down was to open the windows, the windows did not have curtains so anyone walking past could see into your room through the fly mesh window frame. I’ve stayed in similar guesthouses for much cheaper

    The location is ideal for sightseeing the main temples and has a nice view of the river, the homeowners were friendly and served breakfast if you wanted it at a small fee.

    The room was very priced as for the size of the room. The washroom was congested.

    The room was clean. Hot water was available for 24 hrs. The host was very nice and helpful.

    I mean the renting was bit larger. GST was trash.

    Kiran and one sister there was very friendly and gave us utility we needed. The place was clean and the spot of home was close to virupaksha. I really liked staying there.

    Nothing such. It is a homestay. So I didn't expect much here.

    Kiran, the owner of this hotel is always there at your service. I liked him most. Next the peaceful location. And lastly the price I paid 😆 for my stay.

    We just got one towel, many (red) ants in the room, the bathroom felt like a sauna

    Cute homestay with a lovely family! The family lives downstairs so you walk through their living area to go to your room. I think it has its charm. The children were really cute and we didn't hear them in the morning/evening which was nice. Loved the colors of the room and the shower was nice. They switch the electricity of when you leave the room, which I think is good

    The rooms were hot even at night. The owners kept switching off the energy of the room with the outside switch when you were not in the room, you could not charge stuff when you were outside, which is relevant considering there was only one socket in the room.

    Excellent location. The owners were extremely friendly and caring.

    A few reviews on here have mentioned the electricity situation. Whilst it is true you are asked to turn off the electricity when you leave the room this really isn’t an issue considering how cheap the stay is and considering it is a home stay/guesthouse and not a hotel. Also, the negative reviews regarding the children are harsh. Yes, they have young children but again you’re staying at a guesthouse - it is their house so accept they have kids. We had a small issue with ants but the owner came and used this chalk stuff which cleared them up instantly. Only improvement would be to put some curtains on the windows to block out light in the morning. thank you for our stay!!

    Great location for visiting Hampi and the owners are very friendly. They also picked us up from the train station and dropped us off for a very reasonable price considering it is 30/40 minutes to Hospet Station. Great value for money and the owners helped organise day drips for us as well as a laundry service.

    No almirah Or any space to keep the luggage. Size of the room is 9 feet by 9 feet which is on the smaller Side. Size of bath cum toilet is good. I kept my luggage on the bed itself.

    Location of the property is great. That compensates for any inconvenience that may be there. Property owners were quite friendly n helping. Property is clean.

    Nothing! The place had no mosquitoes (and just in case it was equipped with a net to put over the bed, which wasn't necessary in the end!)

    The room had all the necessary commodities, was clean, and had a ceiling fan. The owners of the place were very kind! They allowed me to leave my bags after checkout.

    The bed was probably the hardest and most uncomfortable I’ve been in. Also ants in the bed at night time and cockroaches in the toilet in the morning. I guess they crawl up when the night falls

    A nice home stay close to the temple in Hampi. The owner and is wife was very nice and helpful. They arrange tuk tuk to and from Hospet were the bus stops.
