The staff are very helpful and nice. The place is peaceful and quiet, despite being in the middle of Thamel. The hotel is brand new, so everything is in perfect condition.

Super nice hotel, one of the cleanest and brightest hotels in KTM just for 9€. Comfy beds, no damaged furnitures, everything worked, nice shower, good wifi, nice place to stay relax or do some work. Stuff was super nice, always asks how are you, willing to help. I think all Nepalese people that friendly

I loved its location in Thamel, it is great, and despite that the room was quiet, the bed was very comfortable, they gave me a towel and the bathroom was super clean. Furthermore, the boy who served was very friendly and with a smile.

Great hostel is nearby Osel Ling. Location is good for Tergar student and someone who wants to explore village life there. The owner always welcomes us with his smiling face at night. He is always hardworking and nice. The hostel is clean and comfortable because of his hardworking and responsible. I can feel safe there even though I am a girl travelling alone. Laundry service is good, too. I love the morning sun and air there. Great place ro stay.

Staff is so nice and helpful, garden and terraces are great for chilling out, socialising, and breakfast in the morning. Laundry is fast and cheap, breakfast is plentiful, spent many weeks here on and off and found it great! No a/c but fans do the job. Favourite budget place in KTM after having stayed in several.

Best hostels was a perfect warm welcome in Kathmandu. Sweet sweet Sunny made us feel like we came home. The location is in a more peaceful part of the city but walking distance to downtown. The rooms were nice and they had all of the food and knowledge you could ask for. The staff and Sunny treated us like friends. We will definitely come back!!
