“Not a resort or a full service home stay more like a lodge or partial home stay,family avoid”
Places like Mahabaleshwar Panchgani are destinations you go for the view, have a relaxed evening with family, Bluebells is a mid‑road stay with no view, no segregation of property and road not advisable for family, more like a day‑lodging place, no sitting space for family in nature. On service I had selected pet friendly, we have a cat not sure what happened it got freaked out in the night and got extra noisy we tried to control and we get a knock on door in the night, home stay owner mentions he doesn't allow pet because of past experience cautioned not to let pet on bed, thankfully did not ask us to leave. Before booking and before getting into the room I checked for food arrangement I was told there are restaurants nearby while checking out I see him getting breakfast for another renter! Not sure why would they choose selective service or not telling us about food availability at a cost we are anyway going to pay in a restaurant, at 3359 INR including taxes not worth the money, imagine you get a basic room with running water, for this cost no towels no provision for tea coffee nearby not even a kettle with tea bags no sit‑out space and you are at Mahabaleshwar.
