The rooms were not as shown on the website. The standard room in website showed much larger room, with sitting space for two. There were no windows in the room, and no shower curtains in the bathroom. There wasn't even soap and toothbrush and basic toiletries in the bathroom. Even the bedsheets had stains on it. It was very congested. Additionally, we recieved calls every 5 mins from 9.45 to 10.15 to checkout. The official checkout time is 10. We checked out by 10.13. we don't expect multiple calls for 10minw of time. Overall, terrible stay for the price we paid.. Not to mention that the common area washrooms are really bad, plus no ac in so called 'co-working space'.. All talk no show kind of place. Expected better from such a big chain.

Great place to stay if you don't mind the chaos outside. The room was clean but you can notice the sheeds and pillos have seen some use. There is cooling air conditioner but no heater. The bathroom can get a little messy after a shower since the water can run easily to the rest of the bathroom. May get a little noisy if your room is facing the streets. Food was great, we had omelets as breakfast. As a tourist from a different country I felt a little uncomfortable walking outside sine most people is either looking at you or trying to offering you a ride somewhere. Not a lot to see from the rooftop but the area itself is great.

The baggage storage area is shared with what appeared to be the food preparation area. Happened to see food all over the place when I picked up my bag. Not very clean in general so I’d think twice about ordering any food from the hostel. Plenty of food options in the area though. Overall a good option with friendly staff that is close to NDLS railway station.

The location is kinda bad, probably one of the worst areas of Delhi - dirty and full of scammers. Do not trust the local rickshaw drivers for tours around and such, You will pay overcharged fares for almost anything since he will get his share. The hostel seems a light in the dark compared to the surroundings, nice Place to stay with some entertainments (pool table, soccer table, cards, board games...), kinda clean and comfortable. Just be careful leaving your belongings in the room, I've left 8 packets of cigarettes inside my locked double private room and I haven't found them anymore... The staff is not trustworthy
