Easily one of the best hostels in Kodaikanal. Great value for money. There is a fantastic restaurant nearby and also there are some great views near the hostel. Good comfortable beds and clean restrooms. Special mention to the management - the volunteer Mr. Eric, he was very helpful during the stay.
