Loved the stay. Would visit again!

The hosts were very welcoming and the atmosphere of the place was great. It was a decent walk, not too far from the ghats. Location wise 8/10. The property was nice.

The location is very bad and the common areas are okayish and common washrooms are not clean and there is a big security concern as we booked a female dorm and some international guy intruded the bathroom and took a long bath and then left and when we confronted the receptionist then they had no answer.

Overall, the staff was cooperative and everything was great in the building.

My bed had no curtains, the railings for the curtains were broken. And my booking in Booking.com was for Rs. 1699 (2 days). However, they charged me Rs. 1749 for the same.

They had various activities for travellers to take part in, during their stay. They have turned the place into a cozy cute little place for travellers to stay. The staff behaviour was very good and very cooperative and the owners were very good at heart. Overall it was a great experience and would recommend everyone to go there to stay. Truly value for money.

I had a wonderful stay at Gypsy Dairies, Varanasi. The hostel is spacious, clean, and very well maintained. Loved the common area and the bonfire space right in front of the hostel—perfect place to chill. Special thanks to Mr. Abhay and his team for taking such good care of all guests. The New Year celebration here was unforgettable. Highly recommended!

Very lovely hostel, highly recommend

The staff here are lovely, very kind and the facilities have a lot of character. Very clean place and you can tell it’s well loved. They have lots of lockers and let me keep my stuff there for a few hours after I checked out. I stayed in the dorms and it was very comfortable with curtains, fans and two bathrooms. They also provided toilet paper. The rooftop is a nice vibe and has fencing to protect from the monkeys

Good - social environment. Bad - Less bathrooms and cleanliness

Hands down it's the people of hostel. The social environment is next level. That's the only reason for me to give 9 star otherwise it's a 7 star hostel

Great hostel in Varanasi

I really enjoyed my stay here. The rooms are clean, there are curtains on the beds in the dormitories, and the bed is comfortable. There is a power outlet, a light, and a fan next to the bed. The shower water is hot, and there is soap available in the bathroom. The staff are very kind, and the location is also very good. Highly recommended.
