    This hotel really has a great vibe and the atmosphere is just what you'd want in a place meant for travelers. The staff were super helpful with car hire options and even offered laundry services. I loved chilling out in the outdoor dining area and enjoyed the picnics they organized. Plus, meeting fellow travelers here made my stay even better, and we ended up planning a spontaneous trip together! It was way better than my previous stays elsewhere.

    There are a couple of areas to enhance. The cleanliness could definitely use some attention, especially in the shared spaces.

    I had a pretty good time at this hostel! The location is super convenient, just a short walk from the main road, making it easy to explore the area. I loved that it had a chill, youth-friendly vibe, perfect for meeting fellow travelers. On the downside, the cleanliness could definitely use some improvement—especially the shared bathrooms. I also noticed some issues with mosquitoes in the rooms and a lack of ventilation, which was a bit uncomfortable at times.

    Budget-friendly stay in Guwahati for young travelers. Rooms and washrooms recently renovated, creating a pleasant atmosphere. Ideal for mingling with fellow travelers and organizing trips. Good hot water supply in bathrooms. Close to shops and well-lit surroundings for safety.

    The cozy rooms and friendly atmosphere made us feel right at home. the kids enjoyed the play area, and we loved the organized family activities. It was a perfect family getaway!

    My wife says that having a dedicated kids' menu at the restaurant would make dining more kid-friendly.

    we had a great time at gibbon backpackers. the vibe and layout were enjoyable. the hostel is youth-friendly with fair prices. facilities were clean, and the staff was hospitable. meeting new people was easy, and the location felt safe.

    A decent place for a short stay, and the geyser worked well. Cons: nothing at all 🙂.

    A tent beneath a starry night is a part of everyone's travel imaginations. Staying at this hostel felt like living in a real-life fairytale, with the twinkling stars above and the cozy tent providing a unique, unforgettable experience.

    No mosquito nets provided.
