    The house was noisy in the morning (I do not mean the nun's prayers which did not disturb me at all, but people talking very loudly in the corridor and in the courtyard). The breakfast was quite basic (but okay).

    The guesthouse is well kept, the staff is friendly and helpful, the reception is always open during the day. The rooms are simple as it is usual in such guesthouses, but there is everything you really need. During my stay, there was always enough warm water for a shower.

    The place is warm because of its people, their ease and kindness. They were very welcoming. The guest house has an intent of peace and joy, and that come through in the way one experiences the place.

    If you're ever in Kathmandu then this is the place to stay. The hospitality is amazing, everyone is SO friendly and supportive. I got the chance to join the nuns for their morning puja and the experience was magical. The rooms are incredibly comfortable, the water is very warm and the space is very pleasant. The breakfast is delicious and is different every day. I also bought a few things from their little shop at reception to bring back home for my loved ones. I also needed a taxi to the airport and they booked an advance one for me which was really helpful. I wish I had more time to stay here! Wonderful experience and brilliant location

    It was a bit close to the road. The room was a bit smaller than I expected, the lighting I felt like could have been better in the rooms, but I think lighting is everything, and they were doing construction during the day, but what are you going to do right

    The breakfast was delicious and the staff was lovely. The location was nice

    Nothing I did not like! Hotel uses solar panels, if the day is cloudy, the hot water is not too hot, but during my stay it was perfect.

    The place is magic! I loved to hear the nuns pujas in the early morning and afternoons, and I have the opportunity to attend it in the morning of my departure at 5 am. I also enjoyed the healthy and abundant breakfast, it changed everyday and it was always delicious. For a small extra fee, I joined the nuns for dinner, the food was vegetarian and also yummy, but the best was talking to the young nuns (as young as 5 years old) and eating together. The staff is fantastic, they are helpful and gave me great recommendations for places to visit. They have trusted taxi drivers and they negotiate the rate before hand. I also used their airport transfer on arrival, it was perfect.

    Everything was perfect. I loved staying there. The staff was helpful and accommodating. The breakfast was nutritious and delicious! The location is fantastic. I was very happy to join the morning and evening puja. They have kataks, special teas and incense made by the nuns for sale. Perfect as offerings or gifts.

    If you come to Nepal and Boudhanath and you are even slightly interested in Buddhism, this is your spot. Located in a beautiful tiny nunnery, it has simple but very comfortable and clean rooms, good breakfast, and lots of care baby the staff. You can attend pujas with nuns twice a day and curvumnambulate a beautiful stupa in a lovely flowery courtyard. I will be back here for sure!

    Favourite place to stay in Kathmandu. It's quiet, peaceful and has a lovely Sangha community. The breakfast is lovely and the rooms are so comfortable. I love hearing the nuns sing and so their prayers. The location is also perfect for walking around boudha and going to the stupa.

    Staff, cleanliness and atmosphere are very hospitable. But very important, around one airplane takeoff/landing per hour! And not much to beat the cold in winter.
