“Zostel Rishikesh seems to struggle with consistency, particularly in essential services like water and cleanliness, which is concerning. While some appreciate the social atmosphere fostered by staff, the reports of mismanagement and hygiene issues raise serious questions. In my opinion, travelers should carefully weigh these factors before booking.”
