BS Dreamz Ooty

Overall Experience at BS Dreamz Ooty (Family Trip - April 2025) We stayed at BS Dreamz Ooty from April 13 to April 18, 2025, as a family with young children. Here is a detailed review of our experience: Location: The property is located on a high hill, about 4–5 kilometers from the main Ooty market. While the surrounding scenic beauty from the cottage is truly breathtaking and peaceful, it is important to note that having a personal vehicle is almost essential. Without your own transportation, commuting can be difficult and expensive. Accessibility: Both the car parking area and the cottages are situated on a steep slope. Climbing up and down multiple times a day was quite hectic and could be risky, especially for elderly guests and small children. This aspect should be carefully considered before booking. Staff and Service: The caretakers — a local husband and wife — are hardworking but primarily converse in the local language. Communication in Hindi or English can be challenging at times. During periods of high occupancy, they appeared overworked, and their behavior occasionally turned a bit impatient. There is no manager on-site. The owner, Mr. Sudhakar, handles decisions remotely over phone calls. Although he is polite and courteous, any urgent matters may get delayed depending on his availability. Food: Food is cooked by the caretaker lady and has a homely taste, which we appreciated. However, hygiene standards need considerable improvement, and overall food quality did not fully match the pricing. Also, if planning to order from outside platforms like Zomato, you must place your order between 4:30 PM and 5:30 PM; otherwise, delivery options may become unavailable for that evening. Facilities: Hot water availability was limited and often required a special request, with long waiting times. Rooms do not have basic ventilation like an exhaust fan, ceiling fan, or air conditioning. While the weather outside was pleasant, the interiors sometimes became stuffy and uncomfortable. Cleanliness and maintenance of the rooms and surroundings were below expectations considering the rates charged. Booking Tip: It is advisable to explore direct offline booking options for a better deal, as prices quoted online seemed relatively higher compared to what you might negotiate directly. Final Thoughts: BS Dreamz Ooty offers a beautiful natural setting away from the city's hustle, ideal for those looking for solitude and scenic views. However, it requires improvements in service professionalism, facility management, and food hygiene to provide a more comfortable and satisfying stay for guests, especially for families traveling with young children.

I booked with a free breakfast option which was seen on agoda ,after reaching the property the owner denied it telling we should pay for that additional.it was mistake on agoda they can't do anything.and right after the complaint they changed the free option to paid ,120 / head.we contact agoda and told the issue.agoda said we are eligible for free breakfast,but we didn't get the free breakfast. The rooms toilet vents were open to the pathway which was very uncomfortable to take a bath if u are going with ladies,

Place is good , but disappointed 😞 There is tv but there is no connection, informed several times but no response 😞 They said they offer breakfast but they didn't provide . Without breakfast room rent is high and not worthy , there are many options with same price providing breakfast.
