This really felt like a home stay! We arrived ar around 6-7pm and joined the comun area, which has a projector where you can watch movies (or world Cup :D) and also play board games. The owner was kind enough to teach us how to play bagh chal, thank you so much. The atmosphere was really nice, people playing guitar and a little drum and chatting. So far in Nepal, for me, this was the best stay. Thank you again and good luck

I stayed 12 days altogether at Flock Hostel, on 3 separate periods through April-May, in a 4 bed, 6 bed and 10 bed ladies dorm. It was like a home away from home, in a great location, very safe, with a dedicated staff, from reception to travel desk, to restaurant, cleaning and general services personnel. Kudos, and keep it up! 👏👏👏
