"The property is nice but the location isn’t that great. If location is important to you please choose gostops Tapovan. This one’s surroundings aren’t quite clean from outside nor is it v reachable. The staff is very nice and helpful though. I ended up forgetting some of my belongings at the room which they safely kept and handed over to the courier guy two days after my stay. The rooms and washrooms are clean with good space, spacious terrace and common rooms. They should start planning some group activities though which can help solo travellers connect with EO better may be like some musical experience or games. "

"It seems to be the best hostel in Rishikeshi. This is a hostel that I remember sleeping in a long time after coming here. I was really satisfied with the accommodation and the internet wasn't that fast. Even the public space was really good, so it was very good~"

Everything is complete. Hot shower, pot, fast Wi-Fi, clean and quiet room, refrigerator, closet, TV, desk, chair. It was １ 1900 yen per night for a consecutive night reservation on Trip.com. Cheaper if you are a private room in Tapovan. I stayed for 13 nights in total. I want to stay again next time.

Nice area, pretty decent room (by Indian standards). The hotel was noisy one evening, but that was only because it was Holi. Breakfasts were quite tasty.

Whenever i come to rishikesh i always & always pick my stay at joeys only, reason behind picking this property is not only it's excellent location at tapovan but super generous, helpful, sweet staff. Well equipped and well cleaned rooms. The rooftop cafe offers really good food and beverages and very nice rates. This feels like a second home to me now. Just love this place.

Our recent family stay at the hotel was just okay. The room was average—nothing special, but clean and decent. However, the staff was hardly available when we needed assistance, which was disappointing.
Overall, it was a mediocre experience, so I’d rate it 3 out of 5. Could be better with improved service.
