It is a very social place, but at the same time, we had a quiet room where we could sleep properly - not an easy task in India! Good location, comfortable, and great people working there, with whom it’s easy to become friends.

“Very convenient location”
The hostel is located in a very good spot. Walking distance from few nice restaurants, solar kichen and library. Visiting Auroville from here was convenient and getting a scooter is organized well by the guys running the hostel. They are also very helpful with the activities happening during your stay.

“Chill vibe”
The owner Prerith was super nice and gave me instructions to find interesting things around Auroville. Love the cozy corners to just read a book or sketch or journal and no one would bother you. The room could have been broomed every day, which wasn't done for the four days I was there, but otherwise the common areas are all clean and very comfy. The nonAC dorm was very comfortable even in the summer. Breakfast next door at Dinesh and Devi hotel were so affordable and yummy.
