I recently had the misfortune of staying at zostel banikhet, and i must say it was a complete letdown. The location is one of the biggest drawbacks - it's a whopping 6km away from the town, making it difficult to access nearby attractions. The nearest place to visit is mall road in dalhousie, which is still a significant distance away. The isolation of the hostel makes it feel like you're in the middle of nowhere. To make matters worse, i booked private room and it was not upto mark of zostel you can get way better option in this price range. In the common area there was no vibe even on weekend during my stay, which was extremely off-putting. The pool, which was one of the reasons i booked this hostel, was dirty and unusable. But views are great but still not worthy. Overall, i would not recommend zostel banikhet to anyone. The lack of location, poor maintenance, and uncleanliness make it one of the worst hostels i've stayed in. There are far better options available in dalhousie.
