Our room was spacious clean and comfortable. We arrived on NYE and were invited to join dinner, and offered cookies and crisps to keep us going before one of the best meals we had in India. Sanu brought us on an extremely informative and interesting tour of several temples and took time to explain the local culture and customs to us. We really enjoyed our stay. Thank you 🙏

They have a really secure system within the building so you feel safe while staying there. The room was exactly as in the photos and was so clean. The beds have hidden storage that we did not expect, but it was very useful for storing our luggage, clothes, etc. We had breakfast as well one of the days we stayed, it was also good.PrashantSolo traveler
- Avg. price/night: $30.888.6Scored 8.6ExcellentRated excellent· 687 reviewsgreat hostel, exactly what you’d expect from a backpacker hostel. Great common area (games room, guest shower, terrace with kitchen). Really makes for a relaxed atmosphere. we stayed for holi, and when things got a bit rowdy in town we came back here where there was a really nice party (very safe, with checks of who was allowed in and who not). the people who work there are super friendly and accommodating for traveler’s needs (clear info and help, even provided extra soap and towel to use for our post holi shower). highly recommend!ANNELIESYoung couple
