“Kanak Home Stay impresses with its attentive host, who personally collects guests from the station and arranges local transport. The homemade food receives high praise, though some find the coffee pricey. While the location is near the railway station, access to certain temples requires more expensive, reserved transport, so plan accordingly.”
