Its a newly established hostel which was suggested to me by another friend of mine! I was a little apprehensive about trying out a new place while in India! But gosh...I was so pleasantly surprised and my apprehensions were proven wrong! This place is different. The people, their warmth, humility, professionalism and the atmosphere they create...is a breath of fresh air. Having experienced countless hostels around the world, I think this place deserves the praises! Ritu, at the front desk, made me feel so welcome! Ranaji, as he likes to be called, is fun and I enjoyed jamming with him in the cafe...Anuj looks stern but once you speak to him, he is fun...he ensures the hostel operates flawlessly. All these people make it a safe haven for solo women travellers! Stayed only for one night this time but I'm definitely coming back here soon! I'll have more to write then. Hasta Luego Amigos. Volveré seguro! God speed.

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!
