Mother Hostel

At Varanasi train station, you can use the Uber app to hail a ride (but the station area is too chaotic; you have to walk outside to hail a tuk-tuk). The guesthouse is very close to the Dashashwamedh Ghat, but due to several commercial streets nearby with vehicle restrictions (except for motorcycles?), and the narrow alleyways around the guesthouse, even pulling luggage is very difficult (the cobblestones are uneven and muddy). The guesthouse staff were friendly and helped carry large luggage up and down the stairs. This time, we were assigned a new suite on the top floor (only a ceiling fan). Although there was a window, it lacked screens (only a crack was left open, and curtains were used for privacy), making it a bit stuffy. The Wi-Fi signal was very poor (we used our own mobile internet, which was barely adequate). The soundproofing was okay, but there were occasional noises from monkeys fighting. The Ganges Ave (night) and Dawn (morning) services are a 5-10 minute walk from the guesthouse. Aside from the transportation difficulties, everything else was great. The five-star hotel on the Ganges uses boats to shuttle guests.

空港までの迎えがあり助かりました。ガンジス河から徒歩2分ほどの良い場所です。宿の皆さんが笑顔で対応してくれました。接客は過度でなく、私にはそれがちょうど良かったです。

Останавливался здесь на одну ночь. В целом всё хорошо. Сначала немного не нашёл поворот, но местные быстро помогли сориентироваться. Хозяева очень добрые и отзывчивые, создают приятное впечатление. У них же можно заказать завтрак, ужин или купить воду — цены такие же, как и везде. Комната небольшая, с вентилятором, есть собственный туалет и душ. В целом нормальный вариант за свои деньги.
