Germany COUPLE 18-24 Mar 23, 2026 Atm 60%

Das Privatzimmer war geräumig genug und die Klimaanlage hat funktioniert. Leider was das Bad dreckig, die Spülung hat geleakt, der Wasserhahn an der Dusche getropft und das Wasser der Dusche wurde nicht warm. Auf dem Bett waren Haare zu finden und allgemein viele Mücken. Es gab eine direkte Verbindung ins Treppenhaus, nachts wurde dort das Licht nicht ausgeschalten und anfangs wurden abends noch sehr laut Musik oder Reels abgespielt was im ganzen Haus zu hören war.

The staff is not helpful nor friendly. The A/C stops working every couple of hours and the WiFi is terribly unreliable. The place is a bit dirty. Good location.

Nice, comfortable rest house in Varanasi. It's in the backstreets near the ghats, so it is well situated and authentic. Dorms comfortable, staff helpful and very good value for money. Recommended.

Nothing special, but was cheap and in Varanasi center. No atmosphere at all. The owner does not accept unmarried couples, unacceptable in 2023.

Das Hostel liegt relativ gut, die Mitarbeiter sind nett jedoch ein wenig lustlos. Trotzdem wurden alles unsere Wünsche erfüllt. Bei der Ausstattung sind das relativ gute WIFI und die heiße Dusche zu erwähnen. Andere Ausstattung ist nicht vorhanden. Das schlimmste ist, dass es sowohl zur Straße hin, als auch zum Flur hin Löcher in der Wand gibt. Deswegen hört man jegliche Geräusche von innen und au´ßen, als ob man direkt neben der Lärmquelle wäre.
