I found Shanti Home in a search for hotels safe for women traveling alone, and I ended up going back a second time because it was such a nice place to stay. It's small, friendly, clean, comfortable, quiet, and convenient. Staff at the hotel were excellent--from front desk to restaurant. I was coming back to the hotel alone in the dark, so I asked for an escort and they provided a very friendly staff member.
One point of caution: travel advising services. The hotel is excellent, and travel planning just isn't their specialty. I would recommend reaching out to a travel company if you'd like help planning a trip. The tour guides the driver Shanti Home provided me took me to overpriced, pushy private stores. I felt uncomfortable. I had much better shopping experiences at markets and walking streets shopping alone.
