All in all, our property is perfect for thrill-seekers who want to collect horror stories instead of souvenirs. Come at your own risk, and make your stay a once-in-a-lifetime experience… because you’ll never want to repeat it. Our building is a living museum of chaos – old, unorganized, and full of surprises. Every corner is a lucky dip: will it be dust, a rat carcass, or that mysterious odor that keeps you guessing? Hygiene and sanitation here are mythical concepts, vanishing faster than your hope for clean water. Speaking of water, scarcity is our daily special – because who needs showers when you can embrace the aroma of adventure? Noise pollution is included free of charge, both inside and outside, ensuring you’ll never accidentally find peace. Food quality is so disappointing it might just teach you gratitude for instant noodles. Our rooms are minimalist to the extreme: no hangers, no mirrors, no chairs, and linens that proudly carry the scent of decades gone by. Staff and service? Think of it as a live-action escape room – rude, disapproving, and guaranteed to make every request feel like a covert mission. Toilets and premises are so dirty they could qualify as archaeological sites. The neighborhood shuts down by 6 pm, so if you’re hungry after that, congratulations – you’re fasting. And finally, the cherry on top: we’re proudly located 12 km away from Darjeeling town, tucked so far into nowhere that even Google Maps sighs in frustration. Accessibility? Only if you consider steep, narrow, death-defying stairs a form of cardio.

“The property is situated in Lebong, a valley approximately 1,000 feet (300 meters) below Darjeeling town in West Bengal, India. It is approximately 8 kilometers from the Mall, which is the central location of Darjeeling. The valley is renowned for its racecourse. The 11th Gorkha Rifles regiment is located just 100 meters away from the property, and it is also the site where the initial tea plantations of the Darjeeling hills began in the 1850s. Additionally, Lebong is famous for the Gorkha stadium. Other notable places in Lebong include Golai Bazaar, Lebong Cricket Bazaar, Lebong viewpoint, Pubsiling viewpoint, the oldest monastery in Darjeeling, and the oldest Shiva temple. The valley also boasts tea gardens such as Ging, Badamtam, and Phoobshering.”
