Description from owner

Description

Tired of the tourist trail? Seeking somewhere special to stay? If so, Rooftop Retreat is the place for you! Tucked away above the Damodaran family's home, this spacious, clean and tastefully furnished apartment provides a convenient base from which to explore Mysore city, and a welcome space to relax in after a hard day's sightseeing! The bedroom boasts one large double or two twin beds with mosquito nets, an attached shower room and western style toilet. The dining room, equipped with refrigerator , gas stove and utensils and the sitting room contains a small library, board games, and a TV tuned to many English language channels. From the window you can watch everyday life unfold in the street below, and from the roof terrace you can look out toward Chamundi hill and the town. The climate in Mysore is pleasant for most of the year and there are ceiling fans throughout the flat, but air conditioning is provided in the bedroom for those who want it. Nivya can prepare breakfast, lunch and dinner on request, which you can enjoy in the flat.

You will be guaranteed the warmest of welcomes if you choose to stay here: however, as your apartment is self contained you can enjoy complete privacy whenever you wish.
