The people who run it. The location. The rooms. Over all my trips to India I have spent almost three years in the area around Dharamsala (particularly Bhagsu Nag). There are now only two places in this area that I bother looking at to stay. This is one of them. I have stayed at this guest house on 6 occasions, and it has changed name and management four times over the years. It has always been good, but I must say the new managers are the best yet. Two great guys who set about to create not just a guesthouse/hostel, but a community living experience. I am not the most sociable person, but even I love the atmosphere they have created. I am now just back home saving money until I can return.

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.

    I loved how caring and available the staff was! Thanks to Abu & Neema for their constant help. The hostel was cozy, comfortable, and super budget friendly for my three day stay at Mcleodganj! Definitely recommended if you're tight on budget and also want a super comfy bed -- not to mention with an opportunity to meet travellers from across the world!
