Pros:

The Location is really good except the quit noise road at night. The Staff is very friendly and welcoming and the price with the included breakfast is more than fair.

Cons:

The noise Road at night.

Pros:

The host was attentive, though in Kathmandu they place accommodation prices at the lower limit and then try to sell you additional services. It's OK, as long as it was the way I experienced it: a suggestion, not harassment.
The room itself was well maintained, the breakfast was excellent and it was centrally located at the heart of Thamel.

Cons:

I chose the cheapest room, which meant no windows. And it was on the 4th floor, so there were a lot of stairs to climb.

Cons:

My room did not have a window, even though the website said it would, making the room feel very claustrophobic. The water was cold and in general the room felt dirty. I stayed in many hotels and hostels in Nepal, some which were much cheaper, and this was by far my least favorite.

入住体验不好，不能住第二天
Pros:

酒店位置在核心旅游区，出行很方便，配备旅行团服务可以自己选择。

Cons:

房间隔音效果非常差，上下楼任何声音都能听的清楚，因此感觉很吵。酒店内设施也非常陈旧了，我的房间没有窗户，感觉非常阴暗压抑，一开门有一股味道，而且房间密闭性很差，外面有人抽烟房间里都能闻到。

Good Karma is enjoyed when staying at Karma Traveller's Home
Pros:

The Karma Hotel experience was exceptional because of the homely non-commercial feeling during the stay, yet with complete personal space and privacy. From entry, the Reception staff female member was very warm and friendly, and facilitated an easy and smooth check-in and room allocation process. The staffing was very positive, the location is very ideal for being just outside of the Thamel High Street bustle, but only meters away should you choose to stroll around and for shopping. I have found my best Nepal accommodation experience yet in my many visits here, and will certainly always book ahead to stay here only, when coming to Kathmandu. Thank you to the wonderful staff and management, for a great experience of 5 nights stay. See you soon ;)

Cons:

Nothing !

Pros:

Staff are friendly, close to the main area of tourist attractions.

Cons:

Smelly room with strong cigarette smell.
The sleeping place was clean but not really for the toilet.
The AC was not working, we asked staff to fix it . After the staff came and fixed, the AC stopped running again after a few minutes later. We were all sweating at night .
The provided towels were not really cleaned, with smell and coloured.

Une très bonne adresse, chaleureuse et idéalement située !
Pros:

Le personnel est vraiment au top, très accueillant et chaleureux. Le logement est également très bien situé, à proximité de Durbar Square.

Un grand merci à Kedar, qui a su nous conseiller sur les différentes activités à faire, notamment pour la partie trek. Grâce à son expérience de guide, il a parfaitement compris nos besoins et nos envies et a pu nous proposer une offre adaptée et très compétitive.

Le petit déjeuner est également très bon, et le prendre sur la terrasse rooftop est un vrai plus pour bien commencer la journée. Il est également possible de demander à l’équipe de préparer des repas, selon les produits disponibles. Nous avons testé et nous nous sommes régalés !

Une excellente expérience, que nous recommandons sans hésitation !

Cons:

La chambre pourrait être un peu mieux insonorisée. Étant située en plein centre, il faut toutefois s’attendre à entendre les klaxons et certaines processions religieuses le matin.

C’est un détail, mais quelques cintres ou crochets seraient également appréciables pour suspendre les serviettes de douche.
