Superb value for money in the heart of hotspot Thamel
Pros:

Location, cleanliness and extremely friendly staff - everything was superb! They even offer airport pickups and are extremely proactive with their communication from the day you book till the day you check out, along with very polite staff onsite.
Its in a side street in a quiet location with a very nice garden area - in the heart of Thamel but away from the hustle bustle
I will come back again!

Not worth the money and cleanliness.
Cons:

I booked through Booking.com. The staff were nice, but the room floor was very dirty and sticky. No toothbrush or toothpaste was provided—we had to ask separately. The stay cost around 4300, which was not worth it. The corridor outside was noisy, with staff talking and giggling. Overall, I do not recommend this place—it’s not worth the money.

Pros:

Déjà donné mes commentaires pour les précédents séjours.
Très bien.

Cons:

Pour ce dernier séjour, après 20 jours passés dans l'établissement, il a fallu élever la voix pour obtenir de garder notre chambre- gracieusement - le dernier jour, jusque dans l'après-midi ( notre avion partant à minuit!)
Pas très commercial !

Pros:

Location and amenities

Cons:

A small cockroach in the room. Not a big deal but just putting it there so you don’t leave any food open

Pros:

The location of the hotel is the biggest plus point (inside a quiet but safe alley away from the main Thamel inner street). All the restaurants, shops, pubs and clubs were within a short walking distance. The availability of transport (using In Drive app) was very convenient as well.
The bed was comfortable enough.

Cons:

Cleanliness - the bathroom roof had several patches of mould. The palcemats on the dining area were old and stained.
Facilities - toilet took long time to flush and on the last day it even got blocked as well.
Breakfast - it was ok'ish, but something was just not feeling right (hard pancake, bread)
The tv was very very small.

Un peu comme chez soi !
Pros:

Hôtel agréable, bien situé, avec un jardin reposant.
Tout le Personnel est des plus agréables, serviable et avec qui on peut échanger.
Chambre superbe
Un havre de paix pour plusieurs jours (20 jours) et en retrait de l'agitation de Thamel.

Cons:

Un peu de bruit des fois la nuit (chiens, boîte de nuit)
