A jovial host attended even my early arrival at the quiet property to try arranging a room earlier to make it smoothly. Thanks to him, my trip was immaculate at first time in India also gave rise to an impression of the happiness. Outstanding service humanly!

After checking out, I stayed longer so the manager asked me to pay haha

Cleaning was done very carefully, the bed was very hard, and the gas stove couldn't be turned on by itself.

Spacious hostel with great common areas, good food. Located near the metro, they have AC timings from 7pm- 7am, i'm okay with it. The ladies dormitories are located in the ground floor which made me more comfortable, i'm a first time solo traveler.

My stay at Gandhi Hostel was fantastic! The friendly staff really made the place feel alive, and I loved the frequent chai, comfy couch hangouts, and Bobby's awesome city guide tips. I definitely recommend it! City tour is special, and the Metro is advantage
