At first this is a guest house and not a homestay, what means it will not be the right place if you wish to stay with a Balti family - so consider your choice. But it is a good place to stay and popular to take tasty meals at open view Ullah’s Cafe, their fried fish was so delicious. Easy reachable, located right on the roadside.

The staff showed no courtesy or professionalism, making the entire meal feel like a waste of time and money. Definitely not worth visiting — there are far better...
