Room and bathroom were spotlessly clean and comfortable. the staff were very friendly and helpful.
The location was not as central as advertised, making it difficult to explore the city on foot. The noise from the nearby construction site was unbearable, ruining the romantic ambiance.

I loved the awesome atmosphere and friendly staff. the cleanliness was top-notch, and the location in downtown was rare to find. the rooftop view was stunning, and it was a great place to meet other backpackers. the manager, Gopi, was extremely knowledgeable about tourism and went above and beyond to provide information and organize tours and treks. the food served on the rooftop terrace was delicious. my experience at this hostel was truly memorable and lovely.
Felt like home, no complaints whatsoever.

Great location in the heart of the city, close to popular attractions and markets. Clean and spacious rooms with comfortable beds. The staff was friendly and helpful, offering assistance in planning activities and tours. The rooftop area was a nice place to relax and meet other travelers.
The mattress in my room was too hard and uncomfortable to sleep on. The smell from the ensuite drain fresheners was overpowering and unpleasant.

The staff at the hostel were incredibly welcoming and helpful, always going out of their way to ensure that we had a fantastic time. They provided us with great recommendations for tours and treks, and even organized them for us. The rooms were clean and comfortable, with hot showers and a reliable wifi connection. The rooftop terrace was a highlight, offering stunning panoramic views of the city and a great place to relax and meet other travelers. The location was also excellent, with numerous restaurants, cafes, and shops just a short walk away.
The only minor issue we encountered was that the bathrooms sometimes didn't meet our standards, likely due to the large number of people using them. However, they were cleaned daily, so it wasn't a big problem.
