    The hostel had a relaxed vibe, comfy beds, clean bathrooms, and outdoor sitting areas with hammocks. The staff was friendly and offered helpful advice. The outdoor dining area was great for meeting fellow travelers and the prices were affordable. The rooftop provided a bird's-eye view of Kathmandu.

    Everything was spot on.

    The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, always willing to assist with any requests or questions. The common area/garden was a great place to relax and unwind, with plenty of seating options. The food provided was not only delicious but also reasonably priced. the hot showers were a welcome feature that ensured a comfortable stay.

    There were some minor issues that detracted from an otherwise pleasant experience. There was occasional confusion with bed assignments, leading to some switching around.

    Best aspects of my Christmas stay were the affordable prices and the excellent location. The hotel had great deals on everything, from accommodation to food, making it budget-friendly for travelers like me. Plus, its location was ideal, allowing me easy access to key attractions and transportation options. Another advantage I enjoyed was the friendly and helpful staff, who were always ready to assist with any queries or provide useful recommendations.

    Worst aspects of my stay included the lack of cleanliness and hygiene. The rooms were dusty, the sheets were not very clean, and the bathroom had signs of mold.

    The hostel's staff were incredibly accommodating and provided a high level of hospitality. the rooms were clean and the common sitting area was great for meeting fellow travelers. They offered a dedicated place for coffee and a coworking station, perfect for those who need fast internet access.

    The kitchen in the cafe had poor hygiene and cleanliness, which affected the overall impression of the hostel.

    The staff were amazing and the vibes were chill. Loved the dedicated coffee area and coworking space. Great value for money and perfect for budget travelers.

    Lockers were too small and not very secure. They overcharged for excursion tickets compared to other places nearby.
