Worst kind of service, location is such that you cannot go anywhere else. I will never recommend this hotel. I wonder how they got good reviews.

Excellent hostel with good service, delicious food, and a great location. Imran Sayyad, the community manager, provides outstanding management and is very cooperative.

Our stay at Monkey Tribe was pleasant. The location is excellent, and Thapa and Shekhar were consistently helpful and friendly. The café offered delicious food and the service was top-notch. However, cleanliness was a concern. We stayed in a semi-deluxe room for three nights and expected a higher standard given the price. There were dead fly wings in the balcony corners, and the bedsheet and quilt cover appeared unclean. We also overheard a discussion implying the quilt cover might not have been changed after the last guest, which raises serious hygiene issues. The games and common area needed more upkeep; the pool table was broken during our visit, and other facilities did not meet expectations. Additionally, the absence of blackout curtains meant the room became very bright at sunrise, making it hard to sleep. Overall, we liked the stay and valued the staff, location, food, and service. With improved cleanliness and maintenance, the experience would be much better. P.S. The WiFi was not very good.

We really enjoyed our stay at Monkey Tribe. The location is excellent, and the manager, Thapa, was very accommodating and always ready to help whenever we needed anything. Shekhar from the staff was also kind and supportive throughout our visit. The food at the hostel café was fantastic, and the service was excellent. Our only concern was the cleanliness. We stayed in the semi-deluxe room for three days, and given the price, we expected better attention to cleanliness. I understand that keeping the balcony spotless can be challenging, but there were dead fly wings in the balcony corners. The bedsheet and quilt cover also appeared not very clean. If they put more effort into room cleanliness, the overall experience would improve significantly. We also overheard a conversation implying the quilt cover might not have been changed after the previous guest left. If true, this is a serious hygiene issue that needs addressing. Additionally, the room lacks blackout curtains, so it gets very bright as soon as the sun rises, making it hard to sleep. In general, we had a pleasant stay and would recommend the place if these minor issues are resolved.
