This was the cheapest place we have stayed in India, and also one of the best! We weren't too sure before booking as it had few reviews due to being a new property, but it definitely exceeded expectations. The staff were amazing, especially the very friendly lady at the desk. We were a family with kids, and felt very safe and welcome here. The room was very good, clean and functional. The biggest plus of this place was the reverse cycle AC heating, and hot water showers that didnt run out after 1 minute! Havent found any other hotel that has this, and we were cozily warm the entire stay. Keep up the amazing work!

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

I recently stayed at Madpacker 2.0 and had a fantastic experience. The hostel was clean, comfortable, and had a friendly atmosphere. The staff were incredibly helpful and knowledgeable about the local area. I especially enjoyed the small get-togethers they arranged every noon and night, which made it easy to meet fellow travelers. Overall, Madpacker offers excellent value for money and a welcoming environment. Highly recommended for budget-conscious travelers!

Excellent hostel(House of gypsy) with friendly staff, clean rooms, and a quiet atmosphere. very affordable prices for excellent facilities. Highly recommended for budget travellers seeking a comfortable stay. the food was good with a variety of options. the river was a walkable distance from the establishment. the staff helped with additional arrangements for travelling and places to visit. rooms were private, quiet and safe. I would recommend it to even working professionals who want a quiet getaway and work in peace.
