7.6Verified guest“We had a great stay at Bella Guesthouse. The location was perfect for exploring the ghats and experiencing the evening Aarti ceremony by the river. The room was spacious, though minimally furnished. The owner, Mr Raj, and his team ensured we felt at home with their heartfelt assistance. The quiet surroundings made for a peaceful retreat, and the complimentary bottle of water was a nice touch. The reliable Wi-Fi was a bonus for staying connected during our visit.”
