I recently stayed at a hostel in Leh and had an exceptional experience. The place was neat and clean, with friendly people and great food. Tousef, the owner, was incredibly helpful in planning our entire trip, including arranging vehicles and stays within our budget. He was always available on calls whenever we needed assistance. This is a must-stay place if you're looking for an affordable option with a nice view and genuinely helpful people. Highly recommended!
The breakfast was more than satisfactory and more than filling. I even packed some to take on my way. The family and the staff they keep, are both, very considerate and punctual in their daily duties. It's always goos to let them know in advance whether you're having food with them, so they can ration and prepare accordingly.
When I arrived from Kargil I was ill (fever, stomach) and I got a nice quiet room with large private bathroom instead of a room with a shared bathroom. I could take all the time I need to recover and the staff brought me water, tea and food whenever I asked. That was a great help. So if you like it quiet, cheap and supportive, this is the place.
Great location, 3 minutes walk from the cetre. We stayed in 4-beds dorm, which was enough for 5 nights stay for budget travellers.
Very well located guest house in the heart of old leh. Only three minutes from the main market, but still a queit area. Very supportive and flexible host. Would recommend if you travel on a budget ;)
