8.0

The neat and clean rooms and linen.

However for an overnight stay in shimla, this is a terrible idea, because of its location. It's a major trek up , and if you reach shimla (old bus stand) after 10 pm, even the lift is not operating and so the climb is quite significant.

בית הקפה. צי9יתי ליהנות ממנו והיה מאוד מצער שבגלל תקלה טכנית לא יכולתי ליהנות ממנו. המגבלה על הכנסת אוכל למלון בהינתן שלא יכןלתי ליהנןת מבית הקפה היתה מאוד מבאסת וחבל שלא הצליחו לתת מענה לבעיה הזו למרות שפניתי מספר פעמים. חוץ מזה היה מצוין

Nothing. It was a waste of money and a shame to the backpackers hostel set up.

The unlike list is long
