    Poor Stay

    charu n.family

    The hostel needs improvement. Mixed-gender rooms are not safe. I recommend separate rooms and bathrooms for females and males. The rooms are dirty and need better maintenance. However, the service is good, and the staff communicates well and listens attentively.
