Would not stay there again!
Very dirty, loud and uncomfortable. Even for the low price it feels too expensive. The location however is great. Close to downtown and vibrant areas.

Staff is very friendly, but the hostel conditions, cleanliness and tidiness is very bad. Even the bathroom and toilets are worst than people's homes. Should restabilise everything.

Worst Hostel Ever
Probably one of the worst hostels I've stayed at. I'm not usually one to write negative reviews, however this place was truly awful. Check-in was awkward because the guy at reception didn't seem to be aware of any booking and wasn't able to check, so had to make a few phonecalls to someone with an internet connection to verify that there was a booking. The room itself was dirty, and smelly. Unsurprisingly there are cockroaches and bedbugs; I was bitten throughout the night. The bathroom looked like it had not been cleaned for over two-three weeks. I felt dirtier after the shower than I did going into it. Though the place is called Backpackers Hostel, it isn't. All of the other guests seem to be living there or using it as some kind of safehouse. There was one man who seemed to be running a 2nd hand laptop business from his bunk bed. I do not recommend this hostel. The price is low for a reason, treat yourself and stay elsewhere. The only positive is the location, it's in the heart of Little India with great access to the metro and touristic parts of the city.

Horrible
Tout simplement anormal de laisser des gens aller dans cet établissement. En raison de surbooking ils ont fait dormir des gens par terre sur des matelas. L'endroit était insalubre, très très sale. Je suis partit avant la fin du weekend. Backpacker ne veut pas dire que l'on doit accepter de tels conditions. J'ai vu des fourmis manger une blatte c'est pour dire!!
