The atmosphere and the people

loved the cats

The freedom to discuss with newly acquired friends. The freedom to eat a variety of nutritious food items and not to mention the filter coffee. Air-conditioning when really needed, i.e. night time.in getting a sound sleep.

Everything, including the availability of cold and hot water to get a refreshing bath. Reasonable rates for food. The courteous attitude of the manager, chef, and cleaning staff. Pre-designed wake-up calls through ajaans. The rules of silence periods and practice of keeping footwaer are a must and help keep hygiene and neatness in rooms. The 2 dogs and a few are a great companionship training gift. My special regards to Kishorji, Padmabhushan Nayak, and the other Nayak, not to forget about the night in charge. The Little Mount metro is 4 min minutes.

Strategic location. The host and staff very friendly. It's very safe for women and solo travel. If you like to make new friends around this is good place to stay.

People are nice there and it is nicely maintained !! Should definitely stay here if you are in chennai

The host is kind and accommodating. Although I did not partake, there is an optional breakfast and dinner meal you can purchase for a very reasonable cost. For what you pay for, it has a good cost performance value.

Although near a retail street, the hostel is located inside through a narrow alley that cars cannot pass through but tuk-tuks can. Domestic travelers tend to not follow the hostel rules and often talk long and loudly on their cellphones within the dorm room, even though it's not allowed.

Its Clean

I got a different room than booked. Chennai is very hot and humid place, they turn off the ac after 7 am in the morning. Thats really hard. No towels or toiletries provided.

The management is very patient. I had been traveling already for 9 months and when I got to Chennai I was very tired and having health problems. I am also older. The management never complained that I was resting there a lot. The chef makes great food that is clean and safe for westerners to eat. There is ac in the room at night. The rooftop is really nice. The other guests are nice. No one ever bothered my things and when I accidentally left something valuable it was always there when I got back.

Some other guests try to turn the ac off at night.

Amazing food and the cats were beautiful!

Location is very good and easily accessible for all locations.

Nice atmosphere, good WiFi, very helpful host, good breakfast at a good price and close to the metro.

Property near Metro Station. Was Clean ,Comfortable & the incharge was polite.Pricing is also Decent.

Great place to stay!!! The accommodation was adequate and the manager and staff were always very friendly and helpful.. It is close to the "Little Mount" metro. A small coffee/tea shop near there served the best Special tea. It was a 15 minute walk to the Saidapet Market, to get fresh fruit and vegetables. The hostel supplied breakfast/lunch/dinner at a very low rate and it was good if you wanted a lazy day hanging out. The other guests there were all very friendly and so the hostel had a good vibe. I thoroughly recommend as a place to stay in Chennai for part of your adventures. The accommodation was adequate and the manager and staff were always very friendly and helpful..

I had no real issues with my accommodation and I stayed there for 9 days, as I was visiting friends.

Best place to stay in Chennai if you're planning for stay short. It feels like home.
