The staff are super helpful, kind and easygoing. The location is set back from the immediate busyness of Thamel to feel like a bit of a refuge.

Very poor maintenance:- 1. Room fan was not working well, unable to control the speed. 2. Bathroom basin tap not working also. I have highlighted to hotel staffs, but they advised me to control the main tap under the basin. 3. Door knob also damaged, unable to open & always stuck!! In summary, very poor maintenance!!

Appalling room condition
Lets start with a good point. The only good thing about this hotel were the staffs. They were friendly and always willing to help but the condition of the hotel was so appalling that nothing could be done to improve our stay. First of all,it is a mission to get to the hotel unless you take a taxi.The floors were so dirty, i could not literally take off my shoes. Bedsheets, blankets looked unwashed and stinky. Toilets were filthy and the flush stopped working on the first day. They changed the room for me after the request but it was identical. Doors looked liked it has not been changed since the hotel was opened. I saw cockroaches in the morning under the carpets and told the cleaner but she took it so casually and was surprised. I had plans to stay the next whole week but decided to go outside of Thamel. This is the worst state I have seen of a hotel room.

Very good Value for money!
Pros: Very good value for money. Rooms have windows, electricity, hot water and clean bed sheets. Fan works great. Free breakfast. Friendly workers. Other: Washroom is not in so good condition, but for this cheap what can you expect. Beds are not very comfortable but again I am happy if I think how cheap it was. Cons: Wifi does not work. But it does not really work in the nearby hotels that cost more either. So I recommend you to just buy a local data sim card.

An island of calm amidst the tourist frenzy
Great, friendly staff. Room was pretty basic but it was clean and felt safe and the price was good. A bit hard to find, but once you know where it is, it's a great location because it in the heart of Thamel but doesn't feel like it - so there's a buffer from that tourist street madness, although you can get there pretty quickly if you want.

Betrayal
The hotel booked our room despite of being full. Thua when we arrived they offered us a room in another hotel. That room was filthy and when we complained the manager refused to help us at all. Receptionist was a little reasonable who subsequently arranged a little better room in another hotel.

Good location in Thamel
Good spot off the main roads with included breakfast. Room was decent for the price. The staff were friendly and helpful but I was overcharged for the second night that we hadn't reserved through Expedia.

Cheap hotel didn't really feel secure.
Room was old and dingy. Shower too a long time to heat up. People were incredibly loud outside. My senses were all agreeing the room was pretty unclean.
