Pros:

Rambler’s Hotel felt like a home away from home. The staff and Shalik made me feel very welcome from the moment I arrived, and their hospitality really stood out. The room was cozy and clean, and I appreciated the quiet atmosphere despite being in busy Thamel. I also loved the rooftop space—it’s perfect for relaxing in the evening. I’d happily return on my next visit to Kathmandu.

Cons:

Ни о каких 3 звездах тут нет и речи!

Грязно (зеркало, видимо, последний раз мыли в прошлом веке!) влажно, запах в номере как будто полы грязной тряпкой мыли. Жуткая вонь из канализации, в ванной невозможно дышать, я такой вони никогда не встречала!

В бачок туалета не поступает нормально вода.

Прямо напротив жилой дом, до балконов дотянуться можно и вид на чужую квартиру без занавесок. Так что в номере шторы все время закрыты. Но соседи до полуночи не спят и ты вместе с ними

Постельное белье все в пятнах, полотенца еще грязнее, в итоге спала в одежде!

Постоянно пропадает Интернет.

Мальчик на рецепшен 2 слов по-английски связать не может!
Цена абсолютно не соответствует качеству!

Причем, когда я забронировала, мне еще ночью начали писать в ватс ап: а это вы? вы точно забронировали? Вообще не в курсе про личные границы!

Pros:

Ein einfaches, kleines Hotel für low budget Reisende. Zentral gelegen, trotzdem ruhig, weil in einer kleinen Gasse.
Tolles, hilfsbereites Personal, vor allem Herr Shalik.
Tolles Frühstück mit traditionellem nepalesischem Gericht, es wird bei Wunsch aufs Zimmer gebracht.
Klimaanlage im Zimmer.

Cons:

Wenig Sonne in den Zimmern wegen der Lage in der Gasse, aber dafür kann das Hotel nichts
