• The most prominent land marks near the hostel are Kerala Cafe in Bhelupur and Bhelupur Water Tank. These would help you locate the hostel.
• You need to tell the auto/ taxi driver to take you to the Bhelupur Water Tank (Hindi Pronunciation: Bheloopoor Paanee Tankee) and then to the LG store (Balaji Consumer Durables) right next to the Bhelupur Water tank.
• With the LG store on your left, 10 meters ahead of the LG Store is a cobbled lane to your left, right before the point where the road is turning to the left. Enter that lane, it seems narrow but all cars can come inside with ease. Follow the street till the end (around 100 meters - will have to navigate minor lefts and rights).
• We are the corner yellow colored bungalow on your right with multicolored walls.
• You can also locate us on Google Maps. Here is the location on Google Maps:

• We also want to take this opportunity to warn you against some of the scams you need to be aware while travelling across India.
• Taxi / Tuk-Tuk drivers may try to tell you that the hostel is closed or the roads to the hostel are closed and you can not even walk up to the hostel. This is not true. The hostel is open and all the roads to the hostel are operational. They may even pretend to dial the number to the hostel and make you talk to somebody who will tell you they are from the front desk of the hostel and that your booking is cancelled. This is NOT TRUE. We would recommend that you dial the number on your own and talk to the manager on duty on your own. We have a 24*7 reception and our mangers will be able to guide you to the hostel.
• The reason for the scam is to take travelers to expensive hotels from where the taxi / tuk-tuk drivers can make extra money on commissions. Travelers are often sold expensive packages to Agra and Jaipur as part of the scam.
• This mail is just to let you know that the hostel is fully functional and all the roads leading up to the hostel are open. If you are facing such a situation, please get in touch with us directly and we will guide you to the hostel.
