“Its been a nightmare after booking hostel accommodation for a week online on YHA official website. Once you pay no one is concerned to redress your requests. Due to some reason I had to cancel my accommodation. I have been trying to reach YHA and Its email as well as Contact Numbers provided. They are not ready to cancel or initiate a refund at all. I have notified them before 14 days yet they do not respond nor provide any help. Strong recommendation: Don't pay any advance, its better you pay there when you reach the hostel. Looks like a Scam.”

“They keep their water purifiers off because of the light bill. There electricity bill is way more important than your health. They can easily serve you contaminated food and water with no remores.The kitchen is absolutely unclean. The tables in the mess are sticky and stinky. Kitchen staff is extremely rude. The receptionist and manager have no basic manners.If you are a single lady or you are a family coming with kids please don't. Remorse”

“The receptionist is very unfriendly and aggressive. The atmosphere is very unwelcoming. They speak to you in a very rude manner. The rooms have beds very close together, so you're practically sharing a bed with a stranger. The Wi-Fi is only available on the ground floor and works very poorly. Most of the guests were locals, and many of them didn't respect quiet hours. They would get up at all hours of the morning to shower or talk on the phone. At 4 am, they would turn on the lights, regardless of whether other people were still sleeping. It was full of mosquitoes, and I saw several cockroaches in the reception area. Booking.com says they accept card payments and have signs for Visa, but the receptionist says it's not possible; it's cash only. I don't recommend it at all. It's cheap, but they treat you like dirt.”

shreya shripathi★★★★★Rooms present in 2nd floor having worst room condition and bathrooms is worst. When AC is on water drips through ceiling and its scary. And door condition is worst. No daily room service available. Rooms are very congested if u get a 2 bed room.

Sumaiya★★★★★The rooms were FILTHY. Filled with cockroaches and dust made all of us sick. We had diarreah for the next two weeks because of the food. The staff was extremely rude, they threatened to call the cops on us and also called us ugly on multiple ocasions which made us depressed. The backyard was extremely messy, we saw huge snakes and rodents.

Harshad★★★★★I am a student of Campus K. Our school went on a trip to Mysore and chose this place as the stay. The 4.4 rating is a blatant lie. The bathrooms were unclean, the hand shower for cleaning after using toilet did not work. There were cockroaches in the rooms and bees in the lobby. They have non sense rules like "no outside food allowed" to boost the sales of their snacks shop. Their clock was also not working. The bed covers were torn and had blood on them STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE. If I was able to use 0 stars, I would FILTHY UNMAINTAINED MONEY MINDED

HimaBindu Nalli★★★★★There is no word of hospitality , there serve food as if we are not paying but begging . They even serve very less quantity but charge more .It should be 24 hours to check in and check out , I checked in at 3pm and though i can check out at 3pm next day but they asked me to check out at 9 or pay for the othe day when i was going out some important work. They should have reminded me when I checked in or even at 7:30am when i went for coffee. I am really displeased by the way they behaved .

K Hernandez★★★★★Don't expect to be happy here. The guy running the place is extremely ANTISOCIAL, CONDECENDING AND WILL MOCK YOU for expecting even the most basic human decent interaction. Especially for youth coming here to do ashram meditation!! How ironic. And read the reviews, I'm not the only one who had this experience. DONT SUPPORT THIS BUSINESS That couldn't care less about basic human decency

dhanalakshmi venkatraman★★★★★The worst experience ever there was unclean bathrooms in room 312 and 305 and 306 there were cocoroches and wasps/bees everywhere and most of the times there was no electricity plus there was no air flowing in most rooms because the fan was very slow even when set in high speed also they would make noise which disturbs us also there was torn , dirty , pee-like stains , blood on the sheets the bed was average , Other than that the management were kind and patient with us . NEVER GO HERE UNLESS AND UNTIL YOU'RE BADLY IN NEED OF A PLACE TO SLEEP IN !!
