I very much appreciated the good service of Harry and his wife who made my stay comfortable and pleasant. My rating of this stay is high but travelers should be aware of two things. First, there is no air conditioning here. There was a large ceiling fan and opening windows with a breeze, but I missed air conditioning (which one might have expected in a hostel that is in Nepal's large tourist city of Pokhara). Second, the guest house advertises itself as having a "bar". The hosts kindly took me to their rooftop facility (which has a not bad view) on the fourth floor, but it is more of a drinking shed than a bar. No bartender, no other customers at the time, no decoration, and no atmosphere, so really just a place to drink. When another beer is wanted the procedure is to telephone the front desk and the hostess then very kindly climbs four floors with your drink before she returns to her station! Again, the place and hosts are very pleasant, but these two features were a bit lacking.
