Thanks a lot for the warm welcome.VerifiedFaizalour stay at krishna Vilas was exceptional, the house is 10x more beautiful than the description and pictures. It's not a well renovated property but also extremely well maintained, hats off to the two guys who take care of the house. while we were staying we wondered around the garden on bare foot later, we walked on the white parapet wall which left marks on it, immediately after we left they cleaned it with a mop and brush, so you can imagine how well maintained it is. I just marveled at the house the entire time I was there, worth every penny.VerifiedJagDear Mayriam,It was an excellent stay with your property,and room serivce was good and wash room wad very clean and well maintained ...offcourse Care takers Ajay and Depak are very humble to serve.whenever we need a food and really Ajay cooking was awsome.....he has cooked me Chicken.mutton and pranws were yummy.....I really appreciate Myriam and teams providing such a great service and would recommend to all Corporates or / an induviduals travelling to Palakad ..please park your vehicle @Ramessery KrishnaVlllas and take a excellent break and start your further journey....with love JagVerifiedSandeepGreat stay.
