Well maintained and freshly constructed, honestly found all class amenities to have a peaceful stay, especially for a hostel. But the best part was the lovely host Shiv, who guided us for best things to do.. which were all barely a five minutes’ walk from the property by the way. Best one 👍🏻

Save yourself! Don’t book it

soloThis hostel is an absolute disaster. The management? Non-existent. The staff? A bunch of clueless idiots. Linens? Unchanged, even after the previous occupant checked out. And don't get me started on the washrooms—they're a horror show. Oh, and if you leave your room, be prepared for someone else to snatch your bed. I specifically warned, but clearly, they don't give a damn. Save yourself the misery and steer clear of this place. Icing on the cake is their pathetic wifi. I saw so many cases where people booked this crap for 15 days , staying for a night because they have paid for it and moving to different hostel and i get it why this is happening. The most unhygienic hostel i came across
