Kaushal's 5 days trip to Coonoor

I had booked my travel less than a week before my departure. At the outset, I would appreciate the prompt and genuine response from Mr. Rahul who was coordinating with me for the tour plan. He answered all the queries that I had very patiently and gave some good suggestions too. Except for one thing

that is the bath tub in one of the hotel wasn't kept well, rest all from food to cab service to itinerary was very well designed and organized.
