Supportive staff….Ac switched off early morning 7am than switch on at 7 evening. Hostel is located in front of mosque and narrow road where cab/taxi can’t reach.

I have stayed for one night, unfortunately this has been the weakest accommodation I got in India during 3 weeks. The area was a bit smelly. I can't evaluate the breakfast cause they started after my departure. I would not come back.
