Offering clean accomodation, friendly staff and a vibrant atmosphere, it's the perfect choice for budget conscious travellers exploring auroville wonders. The best part is it's located inside auroville and you can explore a lot of places in and near by. Prerit helped me with everything, an amazing host of this property. I was here for 2days but extended the trip because I got this place as perfect for workation.

It was truly a memorable experience. The vibe of the place is very peaceful and deeply connected with nature. A big shoutout to Raj, the host — he made me feel right at home and was always helpful and friendly. There were some jamming events going on in the evenings. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and the location is perfect — right on the main road, close to all the cafes. I highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Auroville! 🙌

    Big hostal in Auroville and great location near first entry point. Staff there all the time ready to help or advise points of interest.So much space in common areas with lots of lounging beds on various floors and games to play.Some activities planned for some evenings.Small kitchen area with drinking water available. Dorm beds with curtains,charger and light.All clean linen. Definitely worth a visit at such a good cheap price.
