+I had a really great stay at this hotel and honestly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. The staff were extremely friendly, welcoming, and helpful throughout my stay. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and well-maintained, which made me feel right at home. The price was also very reasonable, especially considering the quality of the service and accommodation. One thing I really appreciated was being able to return to the hotel at any time during the night without any hassle, which made my stay feel very convenient and comfortable. Overall, a great place to stay with lovely staff, clean rooms, affordable prices, and a welcoming atmosphere. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it!

“Sadly we wouldn't recommend this hotel which is in disrepair and very dirty.”
+The location is great and an easy walk to the centre of Thamel. The staff, especially, Bobb, very friendly and helpful. The manager kept in good communication and generously sent a taxi to collect us at the airport from our late flight.
−Being put in a temporary room for our first night then having to change the next morning to a slightly bigger room. We have stayed here on previous trips to Nepal yet sadly standards have dropped dramatically since our last visit 8/9 years ago. Bedding very poor quality, ripped and stained. Sheets didn’t fit so moving meant sleeping on a bare mattress. The entire room was run down and dirty.

+The people there are really nice and kind. Even though I told them I did not enjoy staying there that much, they helped me call a taxi and carry my luggage.
−I like quiet places. It's too noisy, and I can't sleep at night.

+A few minutes walk north of Thamel within a residential neighbourhood if you want to stay out of the crazy tourist area but still want to be close to it. Plenty of mini-shops and food options nearby. I liked the 3rd floor and 4th floor terraces (real terraces not balconies) with deck chairs. And a lovely (I swear I'm not being architecturally pedantic, just google it lol) Widow's walk at the very top! Perfect for watching birds, people, surrounding hills; as a lookout for enemy combatants, counducting surveillance, what-have-you, etc etc. The owner and staff are so nice, always asking if everything is alright. It's like staying with your relatives... that you like.
−Well, it IS in a residential neighbourhood, so it comes with the usual hustle and bustle of life. 🙂

“Very good”
+Clean, affordable, and very welcoming hotel. The people were really kind and friendly throughout my stay. There is a nice terrace on each floor you can use. There is hot shower in the rooms and you can get food and drinks anytime. I would recommend to anyone. I was supposed to stay just 2 days but I stayed for more than a week.

+We had an amazing stay at this guest house! We stayed for a week, and everything about our experience was perfect. One evening we were even treated to a complimentary dinner, which was absolutely delicious. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming throughout our stay, making us feel right at home. Our room was spotless, and the entire guest house is beautifully maintained. We especially loved the charming balcony and rooftop areas - perfect for relaxing. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a comfortable and memorable stay!
