Es war so unverhältnismäßig Teuer, wir haben pro Nacht 25€ pro Bett bezahlt. Was wir dafür bekommen haben war ein Stinkendes Badezimmer und ein Fenster losen 6er Raum. Die Menschen dort und auch die Angestellten waren super lieb und entspannt, aber das Geld war wirklich unfassbar abgezogen.

Absolutely not it!! The Beds were okay, Rooms had lockers but the bathroom was absolutely horrible. Dirty — and the whole floor was underwater because there was a leak somewhere. I was the only female at this evening and I could not lock the door from inside. Some random man entered my room at midnight without knocking and scared me to death. I left 1 day earlier than planned because the Bathroom was dirty, I felt unsafe nd the way to the Hostel is through sketchy, small alleys.

Goed hotel. Rooftop was heel fijn om te zitten en tot rust te komen. Was alleen niet heel schoon. Verder was alles wel heel netjes. Douche was niet makkelijk in gebruik en bleef vrij koud. Vriendelijk personeel.

The employees have been very attentive and pleasant, they help you with whatever you need, the terrace is spectacular and safe from the monkeys, but in terms of cleanliness it is quite poor in general both in the public facilities and in the rooms and bathrooms.

One employee wouldn't give me my change and I had to ask his manager to get my money. They also sold me a water bottle with the seal cracked, telling me it was washed and recycled and I would get my money back if I returned the bottle. Gross. Their menu is overpriced when compared to other restaurants in the area.

This hostel is very cheap. the dorm rooms are very basic but clean with AC and there are security lockers. Rooftop view is great but the resteraunt is not operational. The one fenale staff member was excellent, friendly and helpful. The main desk guy is extremely rude and doesn't answer any questions. The atmosphere is definitely lacking, but the location is good to get to banks of the ganga.

It’s possible to reach the main places of interest on foot in only a few minutes, nice roof terrace near Ganga River. Sweta, member of the staff, is absolutely the best: from the beginning she was helpful, always ready to answer all our questions, she helped us to solve problems and prepared delicious Masala Chai!

Backpackers park, although hard to find, is situated in a good location. You are based a 30 second walk from the river, and only a short walk up the river to the main ghats. The hostel is also near a variety of shops/stalls. I wouldn't have wanted a different location. Facilities in the hostel were good. The rooms were modern and the bathrooms were very spacious. AC in my particular could be temperamental but overall was fine. The restaurant on the roof offers a great view of the ganga and sur...

The manager of the hostel was very nice and accommodating. Very relaxed vibe, better than many of the other places I've stayed in India. the private rooms were fantastic and spacious and even had Netflix! Only issue I had was that it advertises as breakfast included and having a self catering facility, which when I arrived it didn't. If this is taken off the description then at least that allows travellers to make an informed decision. I would definitely stay again though.

Location: very near to the Ghats Staff: friendly and helpful - there is a common area but no one is really using it and most likely you won’t be able to engage with fellow backpackers unlike other hostels - there is a rooftop restaurant that has very good view but can be hot, depends on your travel date (better use the lift, using stairs is tiring) - you’d most likely meet fellow travelers at the rooftop but don’t expect that much unlike other hostels - prepare your earplugs or noise cance...

The location of the hostel is really nice, next to the ghats and walking distance from everything. The restaurant on the rooftop serves really tasty food and is reasonable priced. I was happy with my room even though the facilities are a bit outdated, but therefore the hostel is cheap and good value for money. The only thing that was bothering me was the noise from other guests being loud in the staircase and next door rooms at late night or early morning hours.

The staff was often rude and weird. They would enter the dorm very early in the morning and open the light and talk loudly, look around and then leave. I would not recommend for women alone. Breakfast was not includelike they advertised. And there is no kitchen for self use. BUT The view, the staff and the food from the restaurant on the rooftop are amazing!!!

Backpacker's Park was close to the Ganges and ghats, in a good location. Roof top restaurant had incredible views and served good food. Staff were helpful, especially Upinder Kumar who helped me with transport. The rooms were clean and fair for the price.
