One of the best hostels I stayed, super clean, good AC in the rooms, nice curtains and new facilities they have. There is also a rooftop cafe where I had hummus plate, which was the best! Staff is also amazing, especially Manish who helped me out a lot and became a friend of mine. I can only just recommend this place:)

Excellent place, it was a great surprise. La Selva, the cafe inside the hotel, is wonderful, special thanks to Niki and Sanita, the best chefs. Comfortable bed, with curtains, room and bathroom cleaned every day. The garden and common areas are the best. Ilona, ​​thank you also for everything, I felt at home.

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.
