    Average Stay

    harish t.

    It's owner never answers the call, i had difficulty finding the location but despite many calls he never answered and didn't call back. There was no water in washbasin, toilet was dirty, lots of mosquitoes in room, no drinking water, no towel/any amenities. So it's just a bed to sleep. (six beds in a room and one toilet to share)

    Excellent Stay

    adarsh.

    There was nice experience of living, since the property is near to east gate, it i is easy to access taj mahal. It only cost 30 rupees to reach the property by local rickshaw and 70 from rapidlo. Hygiene was best of its kind. Host used stay there at night. A locker has been provided to keep your valuable. Thank you.

    Must not book

    himanshu c.

    Dormitory has no air conditioning. There was desert cooler but no ventilation, it created a lot of humus, very difficult to spend the night. And also there was no basic amenities provided like soap, shampoo, towel, wifi etc.

    Unhygienic

    preeti.family

    Location is good, few hundred metres from TAJ . Rooms are very small without ventilation. Untidy bedsheets . Toilet/washroom was pathetic and not even clean/dry when we checked in. Water logged and dustin was full at the time of check in. Photographs displayed on site was fake and not accurate . I will not recommend it for anyone . One word for this location in dumpster.

    Like a family

    stefanie l.solo

    I never stayed in a hostel that had such a friendly atmosphere. It felt like a big family with our big brother (the owner). We had dinner and breakfast together. Aunty cooked very good food. The rooms are not so clean, but the super nice people and lovely atmosphere are worth coming to this place!
