Safe, Sound & Serene: Why Adidev Homestay & Dalanwala Suites Are Top Picks for Families and Women in Dehradun

When traveling, especially with family—or as a solo woman—safety, comfort and peace of mind are not luxuries, they’re must-haves. In Dehradun, two stays stand out for delivering exactly that: Adidev Homestay and Dalanwala Suites by True Host (Adidev). Here’s why these are places you can trust with your heart, your valuables—and your calm.

What Makes a Stay “Safe”

Before we dive into specifics, let’s agree on the criteria that matter when calling a place safe:

• Clean, well-maintained premises

• A neighborhood that feels secure at all hours

• Respectful, professional staff

• Reasonable privacy, especially for women travelers

• Transparency in rules/policies

• Amenities that reduce vulnerability (good lighting, proper locks, parking, reliable staff support)

Adidev Homestay: A Homely Fortress

Location & NeighborhoodAdidev Homestay is in a calm area just off Sahastradhara Road. It’s opposite a large girls’ hostel. For women travelers, that proximity to a female-only hostel provides both a psychological boost and practical safety. Goibibo

Structure & Layout

• The homestay has a separate wing / floor for travelers, which helps preserve privacy. Goibibo

• Clean rooms with basic amenities, kitchen access, tea/coffee maker etc, so you don’t feel dependent or exposed. Goibibo

• Balconies, good ventilation, windows, etc., so that you have natural light, view, security. Goibibo

Staff, Response & Vibe

• Host is responsive, helpful. Check-in late isn’t a problem. That reliability matters. Goibibo

• The environment is homely; people mention feeling “safe”, “quiet”, and “secure”. Goibibo

Possible Weaknesses (but manageable)

• Some shared bathrooms; walls between rooms aren’t always full brick; noise transfers. These are valid points raised by past guests. Goibibo

• Food isn’t cooked on-site always; one might have to order in. But this doesn’t necessarily compromise safety. Goibibo

Overall, for women travelers who value privacy, peace, and a gentle home-like environment, Adidev Homestay offers an excellent choice.

• Separate traveler wings/floors, not mixed dorm-like situations

• Strong staff presence; responsive hosts

• Well-lit entrances, public areas because of location in Dalanwala / near hostels etc.

• Privacy in bathrooms/rooms (though in Adidev Homestay some bathrooms are shared, so solo women may prefer Dalanwala Suites if privacy is paramount)
