Unfortunately I was sick for the entire time of my stay but I was glad it happened here. I stayed in a private room for most of the time which is clean, pretty, the shower has good pressure and is warm (important with long hair :D), there is a fan and A/C and the bed is comfortable. Since I also stayed in a dorm for one night I can also say the dorms are also clean, you have privacy and everything was great. The staff is super super nice and everyone really took good care of me: they let me stay in a dorm bed after check-out until I could check into my new room, bringing food to my room that would help me get better, checking in on me, Rana even drove me to the hospital twice and waited until I was done. Also the property has a really nice terrace where you can eat and chill. I’m really grateful for receiving that help 🙏🏼. 10/10 would recommend :)

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.
