    Villa-style hostel with double bed and mixed rooms, serving continental breakfast. Friendly staff, offering sim card and affordable Taj Mahal trip. Rooftop for midnight talks and stargazing.

    The Desire Hostel provided a pleasant stay for our family of four. The location was ideal, with many cafes at a walking distance and being right near the city center. We enjoyed exploring the local market nearby. The rooms were clean and comfortable, with fresh bedsheets provided every morning. The hostel also had a lovely rooftop terrace and cute paintings on the walls.

    We found it inconvenient that there was only one bathroom available for eight girls in the dorm room.

    The room we stayed in was absolutely fantastic! It had everything we needed, like air conditioning and free WiFi, which made our stay super comfortable. Plus, the room had a kitchen with a fridge, so we could easily cook our own meals. It was like a home away from home!

    The only thing I didn't like was that the room didn't have a balcony. But hey, that's just my personal preference.

    I had such a groovy time at The Desire Hostel! It truly felt like a home away from home. The staff made me feel like family and the overall vibe was so homely. The location was perfect, close to the metro and local markets. Plus, having a kitchen that all travelers could use was a huge bonus! Being able to cook a home-cooked meal while traveling was such a treat. I can't wait to go back and see everyone soon! I highly recommend this place.

    I chose this hotel for attending a vendor expo and I was impressed with the featured amenities provided. The 24-hour business center was convenient for last-minute preparations and the express check-in and check-out made my stay hassle-free.

    The only service I missed for my work was a dedicated meeting room or conference facility. It would have been helpful to have a designated space for meetings and presentations.

    We had an amazing time staying at this hostel. the location was perfect, with a quiet and safe environment. We loved that it was close to the market with food stalls and a 24/7 supermarket, making it convenient for our needs. the friendly and kind staff made our stay even better. We also enjoyed the occasional parties that they organized outside the hostel, adding to the fun atmosphere. The rooms were comfortable and spacious, and we especially loved the cozy rooftop terrace where we could relax on the grass. Cons: Nothing to mention 🙌.

    The best aspects of my stay were the friendly staff and the great location. The staff at this hostel were incredibly welcoming and always went out of their way to assist me with all of my needs. They were knowledgeable about the surrounding area and provided helpful tips and suggestions. Additionally, the location of the hostel was perfect. It was situated in a vibrant neighborhood with plenty of restaurants, shops, and vendors just a short walk away. This made it convenient for me to explore and experience the local culture.

    The cleanliness of the facilities was a major downside during my stay. The bathroom was not adequately cleaned, and the kitchen was quite dirty as well.
