    When visiting Vaishno Devi, you'll find a range of accommodations to suit different budgets and preferences. Since you're looking for a decent and comfortable stay for about 5 days without wanting something too costly or extremely cheap, here are some suggestions:

    1. Katra: Katra is the base town for the Vaishno Devi pilgrimage, and it offers a variety of accommodations to choose from.
      • The White Hotels: This is a well-rated mid-range hotel in Katra, offering comfortable rooms and good amenities.
      • Hotel Shree Hari Niwas: Another mid-range option, this hotel is known for its friendly staff and convenient location.
      • Hotel Asia Vaishno Devi: A comfortable hotel with decent rates, it's a popular choice among travelers.
    2. Guesthouses and Dharamshalas: There are many guesthouses and dharamshalas (religious guesthouses) in Katra that offer affordable and clean accommodations. Some popular ones include the Bhawani Guest House and the Niharika Yatri Niwas.

    3. Online Booking Platforms: Websites like Booking.com, MakeMyTrip, and Agoda offer a wide range of accommodation options in Katra. You can filter your search based on your budget and preferences.

    4. Vaishno Devi Shrine Board Accommodations: The Vaishno Devi Shrine Board operates its own guesthouses and accommodations in Katra. These are often clean and reasonably priced. You can check their official website for availability and booking information.

    5. Private Cottages: If you prefer a more private and homey atmosphere, consider looking for private cottages or homestays in Katra. These can be an excellent option for a longer stay.

    6. Reviews and Recommendations: Be sure to read reviews and recommendations from fellow travelers on various travel websites and forums. This can provide valuable insights into the quality and comfort of accommodations.
    Remember to book your accommodation well in advance, especially if you plan to visit during the peak pilgrimage season, as Katra can get crowded. Additionally, consider the location's proximity to the Vaishno Devi Temple and its accessibility to transportation options. With a bit of research and planning, you can find a comfortable and reasonably priced place to stay for your 5-day visit to Vaishno Devi.
