    We had an amazing stay at the woodpecker suite, lodged on top of a scenic hill, this place was the best weekend getaway we have had. Its so beautiful and serene, away from the hustle if the city and offers the best hospitality- Mr Sandeep the caretaker was just a call away for anything we needed. The food is great too- homestyle warm food.

    The property is much more beautiful and cozy than the pictures let on. The staff, Mr. Sujal was extremely polite and cooperative. The food was fine. But the WiFi is an issue. WiFi coverage is bad everywhere in the property, signal strength is so bad you can't even browse sometimes. Still I would strongly recommend staying here for anyone who is considering this property.

    One of the best properties I have ever visited. The location feels totally surreal. Located on peaceful outskirts, away-from the chaos of city. Cottage comes with private lawn area which is totally amazing and offers breathtaking and amazing view to the valley. Property is child friendly and kid can enjoy a lot in the open lawn. Must visit place

    The property is just too beautiful. The approach road is a little rough for the last 500-800m and the last one km has no street lights, hence makes it a bit difficult to approach at night. Sujal, the caretaker boy was just delightful. Very helpful and very sweet. Overall a great peaceful stay. Would definitely love to return.

    Amazing hospitality and mouth watering food. Perfect location for a getaway from the city for some peace and quiet. The location and the property both were beyond expectations. Had the most memorable vacation in the hills , all thanks to saffron stays. Mr Siddharth and Mr Arjun from Saffron helped me with all my booking formalities smoothly without a hassle and were available and in touch personally throughout our stay for any of our requirements. Mr Ankit the property manager also was so warm and welcoming and everything was arranged according to our comfort without even the slightest of inconvenience. Would definitely be back and would recommend Saffronstays above anything else.

    SaffronStays Care Team

    Your positive feedback on the hospitality, delectable food, and serene location highlights the homestay's strengths. Expressing gratitude towards the staff, especially Mr. Siddharth, Mr. Arjun, and Mr. Ankit, adds a personal touch to your review.

    I had a beautiful stay at the Woodpecker's suite. The staff is really welcoming and extremely helpful, they made sure we had a comfortable stay throughout. The place matches the description and pictures to the point. It looks better in real life than in the pictures tbh. The place was really clean and the surroundings were pleasant and peaceful. Would 10/10 recommend this place to anyone who is looking for a calm, rejuvenating stay away from the hustle bustle of city life. In all, a picture perfect place to spend a relaxing day in the mountains.

    A good place for staycation in nature and away from all the chaos. Only point to be note is there is no option of public transport from 2km and although it was completely safe but if there would a security guard we could feel much safer at night.

    An experience that I'll remember for the rest of my life. The property is located away from the city hustle & bustle because of which the only sounds you'll experience are the chirping of birds. The room is spacious and the support staff was good too. The only minor complaint is the approach road to the property, it's completely broken making it a little difficult to reach the property. Other than that, it was an amazing experience. Definitely would stay again whenever I am in Dehradun.
