The owners, Babu and Kurumi are really kind and helpful. Also the room was clean and comfortable. We had good times in the common area: chilling, talking with others or playing carrom - unforgettable. The Miso soup is a must-try!

Location was great, perfect distance from shops and restaurants but still slightly secluded. The host was very friendly and welcoming, also really helpful in planning day trips around the area, he gave great advice and recommendations. The breakfast that was included was delicious. The rooms were clean and the AC worked.

I have amazing experience as a guest in this hostel. Niaz is too kind and always ready to help. He gives great recommendations for tours and really always says the best options. One of the best hostels that I have visited so far. You can feel the positive energy in the hostel.

Such a nice hostel! One of the better hostels I’ve stayed in in India. everything is there: ac in the rooms, curtains on the bunkbeds, towels, clean showers (of which 1 is women-only), a nice common room, beautiful building, very central location, and also the host is extremely nice, he will send you a WhatsApp message with all his recommendations (and they really are good) and he is very helpful. He helped me to book my bus and was always there for information. Thanks.

Very sociable hostel - but not a big party vibe which I loved. The staff, in particular Joe & Naijeen were super friendly and helpful and there's always some activity to join in with. They brought us out on trips to local attractions and helped us sort out scooters for the journey, even organising birthday cake on a whim for some friends! Rooms were comfortable with air con & a fan and plenty of space for your stuff. Also space on the roof to hang out or do some yoga! Would highly recommend staying here I had a wonderful stay 😊

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    This is a great comfy little hostel in a great location. Niyas, the host, is prepared to go above and beyond to help you with anything you need, and there is AC and a kitchen! The beds are also very comfortable.

    The rooms are well maintained and super clean and the location was accessible and the manager was friendly and helped us even after checking out provided us a space to keep our bags for a day and a washroom to freshen up. Best hostel in a prime location with affordable budget.

    Good location, good staffs. When I reached to the hostel, they wanted to suggest me another option of the lower bunk bed in another mix dormitory(Ⅰbooked 1 Lady dorm but already occupied lower bunk beds). More over, after arguing with other inns, when I was suddenly told that I wanted to come back here, I was warmly welcomed immediately.
