Supportive staff….Ac switched off early morning 7am than switch on at 7 evening. Hostel is located in front of mosque and narrow road where cab/taxi can’t reach.
I have stayed for one night, unfortunately this has been the weakest accommodation I got in India during 3 weeks.
The area was a bit smelly. I can't evaluate the breakfast cause they started after my departure.
I would not come back.
New hostel. 2private room, and men domitory room and women domitory room plus common area and kitchen.
Owner, Sadhu was very nice and we enjoy chatting everyday. Free local Indian breakfast was nice.
First, we booked 2nights, but we add one more week ;)
