    It was one of the best hostels we stayed during our travels in Nepal. We arrived during the early morning and the staffs were kind enough to allow us to chill out in the common area and within less than an hour we got our room ready which was really something we appreciated :) The location of this hostel is really nice, making it accessible to popular tourist hubs like Thamel which is at a walking distance. The rooftop was pretty chilled and had some great views of Kathmandu. Huge thanks to Pramod and Karan for making our stay nice, helping us with their valuable suggestions regarding the places of interest in Kathmandu and guiding us on our upcoming travels in Nepal and they even helped us with getting our currency exchanged during the time when we needed it the most!

    This hostel was amazing! I spend there 1 night at the beginning of my trip and it was the best way to start the adventure in Nepal. I asked for some informations before to arrive in Nepal and they quickly replay to all my questions. Staff is amazing, especially Karan. The airlines lost my bag and he did many calls to the airport in order to receive it at the hostel (without my presence). Right after receiving it at the propriety he texted me that everything was fine and the bag was there. I really appreciate that since I only spend one day in Kathmandu and I could enjoy the city instead of worries about the luggage get lost. I left in the early morning and he woke up for me very early with a big smile on his face. It is such a very good worker and I can definitely say that he loves what he do. Food is cheap and tasty. The shared room and bathroom are clean and they have hot showers. The terrace has a vibe and you can enjoy the sunset from up there. The location is also a must, on Katmandú center. 10 minuts away from the airport and the bus station. Quality/Price 10/10

    No soap in the sink, not easy to wash hands after being to the toilet or after a long day in the city.

    The rooftop is a real asset to the hostel.

    Probably the most courteous staff in Kathmandu. It was my fourth stay there and everything was alright. The hostel manager made my trip to Everest region perfekt. They booked a trip on Island Peak and my flight back (from Lukla directly to Kathmandu) just on demand while trekking. Everything worked right!

    There is no heater system (normal for the price) but still at this season it is a bit complicated. (and hot water isn’t running well)

    Really friendly staff. Easy organisation. Pick up from the airport. Everybody is doing his best to make your stay wonderful.

    Best value hostel I stayed in in Kathmandu (out of 3)

    It is a shame to not have an area to relax that is properly ‘inside’. The floor of the roof terrace doesn’t seal off the common space below so when it was quite cold over winter there wasn’t a warm space. but this is obviously not an issue most of the year and I had a wonderful stay overall

    Very good value for money place with various dorm sizes. nice spaces to chat with other guests too and a small bar with decent food and great staff always around to advise and help out with all sorts. I checked in twice for this place and each time it felt like they valued each guest a lot no matter how busy it was!

    The beds in the female dorm are quite hard, the bathrooms were not great but they were renovating them so might become better.

    Amazing rooftop, great location. View on monkey temple and mountains. Quiet at night so had a good rest! Very friendly staff.
