    The only thing I want to say is that the place is great for people who want to visit monkey temple. The owner is very nice, he helped me book the bus ticket and tell me the direction. I took a bus from monkey temple to Pokhara.

    The place is cozy in a lovely neighbourhood near Svayambhunath. The stupa is a 10 min walk from the guesthouse. The room was nice, with a big window and lots of sunlight during the day. I had a shared bathroom - there was hot water in the shower....
