  “ They don't deliver the services on the website. They did pick us up the airport (for a charge) and the sheet (singular) was very clean. However, the en suite bathroom was shared with the 10 other people living in the house. They used our personal shower products....gross! The bathroom smelled... more smelled like a public pee house, the family would lock us out, and we often had to wait a very long time to use it. We were woken up at 6am by horking women and 6:30 by their 5 screaming children. No meals, no int. close ”

  “ I love these guys. They even let me leave all my books when I went across the India for almost 2 months. They are really nice people - especially the little guy who cooks in their kitchen -unfortunately I forgot his name..Sorry! Please if you stay in this place, give this guy a nice tip! I... more recommend this place, it is a classic apt.- no hotel-like, but these guys will help you with other arrangements as well. close ”

  “ I am only writing this review to help future travelers. The cook at Starry Inn was excellent. He kept the place very cleaned and the meals were excellent. The owner I believe is a nice guy but please be aware of taking Excursions to Sringar, Kishemere on the River boat. There is a finincial... more windfall for the owner because , the Riverboat owner is his brother.What you need to make sure of; whatever you do get it in writing. I was extremely disappointed at the end before leaving because of the trip close ”

  “ The owner and his staff were extremely friendly and accommodating, and I enjoyed my time here immensely. They cooked me one of the best meals I had during my entire 3 weeks in India and didn't even bother to charge me for it. I really cannot recommend this place highly enough - in fact my only... more only regret is not having booked all my time in Delhi here. close ”

  “ It is a good place to stay, located in a convenient locality studded with eating places and markets. The apartment is nice with an excellent rooftop. It is run by three very enthusiastic young men always taking care of their guests. One of them is an excellent cook, and the chicken they prepared... more prepared for us was out of the world. I am an internationally known historian and Professor in a leading Indian University, and I can vouch for this guest house without hesitation. They will also get you transportation and arrange car rentals and metered taxi on demand. Just one feedback and friendly advise for the boys : hereafter just replace the bed sheet in front of the guest after his arrival. close ”

  “ Very friendly welcome in Delhi included, very importantly, a pick-up from the airport! Very laid back place that backpackers will appreciate. Mustafa is excellent at organising trips, air, bus, and train tickets etc and is a valuable source of information about India generally! He gives an honest... more honest opinion and will help out if asked, otherwise there is no pressure to use his services. All in all an efficient, clean and friendly hostel. To be recommended for first time visitiors, and those who've experienced the Indian way of life before! close ”

  “ Mustafa, the owner, hit on me from the moment he picked me up from the airport. This was incredibly annoying since all day everyday in India, I got an enormous amount of attention on the street, on top of which I also had to deal with the guesthouse owner to gaze at me as if he succeeded in... more luring me to his place. It was uncomfortable, and what's even worse he became actually hostile and downright rude to me after I gave him subtle rejections. close ”

  “ Situated on the 4th floor of an apartment block in a 'quietish' leafy suburb and away from the main hassle of Delhi - before arriving check that you know the full address - you will be made very welcome & feel at home - lovely, clean rooms with own bathroom, internet and home cooked food... more available. They also have family in Srinigar so all can be arranged here to go North without the tourist touts! close ”

  “ The staff were friendly and made us feel welcome, and they offered free internet BUT the hotel wasn't what we expected. There was no hot water, the rooms were quite grubby and are overpriced. The location is peaceful but dificult to find (even for locals!) and is far from all main attractions of... more attractions of Delhi. It wasn't the worst hotel we found but isn't worth the asking price for the rooms. close ”

  “ This hostel was good value for the money. In the true style of backpackers it was very basic, but they are wonderful. They brought me chai tea in the morning, allowed me to use their laptop, warned about the particular scams I might face booking train tickets etc. Really recommend these... more people. And they picked me up successfully from the airport at 4am in the morning. Thanks guys! close ”

  “ From the moment we arrived we felt safe and comfortable. Clean room+private bath+home cooked meals (some of the best food we had in India!!) made it easy to settle in and relax. Staff are attentive and friendly. Other guests became travel buddies at different points in our trip. NOTE: DEFINITELY... more DEFINITELY ARRANGE PICK UP! (from plane/train/bus station) inexpensive and easy. For price/convenience we feel SNGH CANNOT be beat. Looking forward to our next stay with you guys! THANKS!! Chris+Amy close ”

  “ I can't believe my luck in finding this place. I've been staying in hostels for years and I have never found a place as accommodating as Starry Nights (nor as good of a bargain). I especially like that they offer to cook all meals for their guests - at any time of day. The furniture appears all... more all brand-new and they have internet 24/7. The building is very secure and is in a safe neighborhood. The balconies and rooftop overlook a park and it's within walking distance to the Central Market. close ”

  “ I had a very bad time in place, The staff tried take me to Kashimir charging a lot. Mustafa (owner) gave me wrong information about cost of travelling in India,just to make money over me, also, he charged me 700rupees for 2 days and didn't give me the change. The internet there was not working... more working during 3 days and in my second day there i had to share the bed with another guest. So if you are a BP, I suggest you don't go there, Use the Lonely Planet to find a safe and good place in Delhi. close ”

  “ Eveerything is perfect here! The guesthouse is ridiculously clean and cheap. Staff are very friendly and they welcomed me just like a family member. Also, the manager suggested me some good places in Kashmir------beautiful mountains,calm lake, friendly local people.....there's a very nice man... more man called AJ, he's an owner of a boathouse called "Boktoo Palace) in Srinagar. He's a very interesting guy and he arranged me everything! It turned out to be an excellent trip! close ”

  “ What a fantastic welcome to India... fun, friendly people! Travelling alone and being female is always a worry and it was such a joy to find a place where you can just relax and have a laugh... in fact, am staying here a couple of nights longer. Airport pick up, bonus! Will hopefully see some... ”
