I stayed here during curfew and hostel manager did everything to make my stay comfortable. They even shared their food wit me! In general - this a nice, clean hostel right in the middle of the Fort district, 7-10 minutes walking from railway station. They have free tea and coffee available all day long, Wi-Fi was working good. But the most amazing are people here, who are really treat you as a friend or family member
