“I noted the location on Ella's main street places you amidst the town's pulse, yet a turn towards the property leads into a calmer space, bordering tea plantations and jungle. Rooms are comfortably sized, and the mountain views, especially at sunrise, bring a unique dimension to the stay; the short, steep climb from the main road is something to consider.”
