Magic Serviced Appartment

The lady who cooks and does the other stuff makes really great food, trust me. It’s a beautiful apartment and perfect for the price. Everything is easy to get to since it’s right in the heart of Shillong. Check the picture below of the room and decide for yourself. Help keep Shillong clean, keep the area clean, and enjoy your stay...

The room is tiny, 6ft x9 ft, smaller than a prison cell. The linen is dirty, and the shoe cupboard they give you for storage is packed with more dirty linen and bedding. There’s nowhere for luggage, and there isn’t enough space to sit properly on the commode. Basically a scam. Don’t ever pay for this.

The location is excellent, but that’s where the good points end. Staff are indifferent and call several times at night to ask whether they should close the door. Only vegetarian food is allowed, the utensils aren’t cleaned properly, and Wi-Fi is unreliable, cutting out frequently. I wouldn’t recommend this place to women travellers because security is a major issue.

It’s centrally located, and the rooms are clean, but the staff are indifferent. If you’re coming back after 8Pm, you need to call the caretaker and ask them to let you in. Even with a booking, they may tell you it’s unavailable. They strictly won’t store luggage, even if you’re returning to the same homestay after some days. You enter through a shuttered garage.
