    The location of this place is great, being very close to the Tibetan Mini Market, we found a small restaurant nearby for food and drinks, and the staff here was incredibly welcoming and made us feel at home.

    Gaurishankar Backpackers Hostel offers a perfect location close to everything; with scenic views of the mountains and a peaceful garden area. The hostel is conveniently situated right next to the river, providing a tranquil environment for guests. The rooms are comfortable and well-equipped, with clean bathrooms and excellent service. Guests can enjoy a delicious breakfast and take advantage of facilities such as lockers and a small library.

    Some guests felt a bit insecure walking back to the hostel at night due to the dark streets surrounding the area.
