Liked: Its right on the River, has a rooftop restaurant with great views, its colourful, and it's a nice place to relax when it's too hot to go wandering around.
Disliked: It's hard to find, hidden in a maze of alleyways and laneways which google maps doesn't cover. There are however signs on walls along the way and plenty of people willing to 'help' (i.e. tauts).The restaurant service could have been a bit more prompt - I had to go and find a waiter every time I wanted something, or even when i wanted to pay the bill.But all in all, it was a nice place to stay in Varanasi.

Liked: Great location on the Ganges close to the main ghat with far reaching views from the rooftop restaurant. It was a relaxed place to be, but felt secure and organised. You can book onward travel with the hotel. The room was good value.
Disliked: You cannot get to it by road, which means a 10 minute walk through a fair bit of chaos from the nearest drop-off point. Someone from the hotel will meet you from the road if you arrange this, but you need to know exactly where you are for them to do this, which is not easy. You are unlikely to find the hotel by yourself through the maze of alleys in the old town.

Liked: Location is wonderful looking over the Ganges. Staff were very friendly and the location is right in the middle of the action, yet very quiet for a good night sleep. Restaurant food on the roof is very good and inexpensive. We had a pleasant stay and would go back again next time. Recommended.

Liked: Great location, right on the ghats and very close to the main ghat. Fantastic rooftop restaurant with great views. Nice garden area, friendly staff, great laundry service. Lovely, colourful rooms, and good value for money. Would definitely recommend.
Disliked: There is a 10pm curfew which caused problems on our first night. We got lost in the dark streets and by the time we arrived, the hotel was all locked up. There was no bell to ring and no way to get inside. We had to find another hotel who called Ganpati Guesthouse who eventually opened up for us. In addition to this, this was the only hostel during our trip that wouldn't let us check in when we arrived and we had to wait a few hours. Service was extremely slow at the restaurant.

Liked: We particularily liked the location. The inside garden is very beautiful and calm and they will offer free wifi, which is really helpful.
Disliked: The room was not the best. The bathroom's faucet did not work, and after being fixed, it would leak. The air conditioner barely worked. Basically the pictures in the site are deceiving. It is a nice place but not what we expected.
