The dormitory is beautiful and probably the best I've ever been in. Had a Scandinavian feel to it as spacious and clean. Bathroom also spacious.
However mostly male staff work here and they just walk into the all female dorms. One knock and they come in. Also when being cleaned through the day the doors are left open so rooms fill with mosquitos. You try and explain this and they can't understand English. Also no curtains for each bed so no privacy.
Also serves meat at the hostel which I find unacceptable as its a Hindu country and no one visits India to eat meat.

I had my hopes up prior to getting to Zostel.
I was disappointed-I had picked the 6 sharong female dorm.. the rooms weren’t great.
The AC doesn’t work. There’s insane amounts of mosquitoes all the time especially post sunset.
The toilet flush was leaking and water was flowing the entire 3 days I stayed at the hostel.
The fab regulator only runs on 1 speed.
The staff aren’t as competent in their work. I jad originally booked for 2 nights and the morning of the check out. I extended my stay.
However, the staff assumed I left and moved all my stuff from my bed and reallocated my bunk to a new booker.
Absolute disaster
