The good hospitality and great vibes of the American West Coast provides the theme for this cosy option. A private space with a shared bath, it is a nice option for those on a budget. There is a window in the California Room which opens into the hallway in front of the yoga shala. The hallway opens up directly to the outside so there is a fresh air breeze coming in. There are no windows in the room facing directly outside. The room is on the base level, which keeps it cool in temperature in the warmer months, with a private bathroom.

Suitable for four guests, this is a great way to meet other like-minded people or for groups travelling together.
