The room was in the middle of the lake ,. When I reached the location as per the map no one knew about this place and you guys don't even have the number of the owner listed. I was inconvenient to find. Then to get there I had to take a boat which coated 200 . The for the food which was Dal rice , sabzi and 2 chapattis he charged 350 Just tell me how is that feecible And to come back again 200 plus parking 100 That makes a total of 850 + the room = 1138 Riddiculous No budget at all Any the place was good But not worth the expense
