    The host were great too help me when I lost my credit card, even lending me money until I got a new one. The hostel itself was clean and had plenty of space to relax, especially on the rooftop hammocks. The breakfast was delicious and varied every day. Despite a few minor drawbacks such as the stuffy room and the out-of-the-way location, I still think it's great value for money. I highly recommend this hostel.

    Kiwi Backpackers Hostel was one of the best hostels I've stayed at. The owner is friendly, welcoming, and really involved in improving the guest experience. The place was packed with young and friendly travelers, with hammocks and awesome mountain views. The free breakfast is better than many I've paid for, and the onsite generator ensures you can charge your devices during blackouts. The owner also organizes safe, fun, and affordable activities for guests, creating a great atmosphere where like-minded travelers can hang out together.

    Can recommend this hostel.

    The atmosphere at Kiwi Backpackers Hostel was very nice. I felt welcomed and included. The common area was buzzing with friendly conversations and laughter, making it easy to meet new people and make friends. The beds were comfortable, and the bathrooms were clean and well-maintained. the included breakfast was delicious and added great value to the overall stay. Despite being a bit farther from the main tourist area, the hostel's location was still convenient with nearby cafes and shops. I had a fantastic experience at Kiwi Backpackers Hostel and would highly recommend it to fellow travelers.

    When we arrived, one of the staff members warmly greeted us and even walked us to the hostel, a great start to our experience. Throughout our time there, they were really nice too help us plan our trekking adventure and even arranged for an amazing guide named Santosh. The rooms were clean, showers were warm, and the beds were comfortable. Plus, the breakfast each morning was a pleasant surprise with different delicious options. The rooftop bar with hammocks was the perfect place to unwind and meet fellow travelers. The view of the Annapurna mountains from the rooftop on clear days was amazing. I highly recommend Kiwi Backpackers Hostel for its cleanliness, friendly staff, and great atmosphere.

    The value for money at this hostel was excellent, with a comfortable double room and attention to detail. The location was great, and the staff treated me so well, always helpful and friendly.

    The breakfast selection could be improved with more variety.

    My recent stay at Kiwi Backpackers Hostel was enjoyable. The private room I stayed in had everything I needed, from a big and comfy bed to a warm shower and clean towels. The breakfast was different every day, a nice touch. The staff was always friendly and helpful, making my stay even better. The location, although a bit far from Lakeside, was not an issue for me. I also appreciated the convenient proximity to the tourist bus stop.
