I booked a bed in this hostel for 2 nights. When I arrived I was told I would pay upon checking out for the number of nights I'd stayed (past 11am is another night). I told the staff I had a booking but this was brushed off. I knew they had paid wifi, but it turns out it is 75 rupees per night PER DEVICE, so 2 devices is 150 rupees a night, which seems so penny-pinching. They sometimes SWITCHED THE PAID WIFI OFF DURING THE DAY! After 4 nights I was told that they have a 5 night limit and had to pay (even though I'd been there 4 nights). I was overcharged upon leaving, as another guest paid less than me for the same thing. There's some city tax they don't mention until you check out. And to top it off, a member of staff asked me to PAY THEIR BOOKING.COM DEPOSIT FOR THEM on my bank card, and they would pay me back in cash! I obviously declined to do them this favour, because they were not a friendly hostel, and I was met with "why won't you do it? etc etc" I was listed as a 'no show' on Booking.com, despite turning up, so I can't review them on that site. Would not recommend this money...
