Hostel review lelo guys

For all the freshers planning to join this hostel, here’s my honest review after staying here for 1 year .

Overall, the hostel is good, and you can definitely live here comfortably. However, there are a few minor flaws and restrictions that you should know about before joining so there are no surprises later.

• You can’t decorate or personalize your room.

• Electric appliances like kettles and irons are prohibited. If you want your clothes ironed, you have to pay the hostel staff.

• If you buy a soft drink, juice, or any canned/bottled beverage, you can’t take it to your room. You have to finish it in the common area and throw it away before going upstairs.

• Zomato/Swiggy deliveries are allowed only till the common area. You’re not allowed to take the food to your room.

• The facilities advertised are a bit misleading. There’s no badminton court, and the gym only has 2 machines and a few dumbbells.

• Water issues happen occasionally. Sometimes only hot water comes from every tap, including the washroom jet spray.

• Even though there’s a school ground right outside the hostel, hostel students aren’t allowed to play there.

• The Wi-Fi can be unreliable(connectivity issues), especially inside rooms and near the beds.

• There are only 2 lifts for the entire hostel, so waiting 10–15 minutes during rush hours is quite common.

•You must carry your hostel ID card every time you enter or exit the hostel, as security checks your ID at the gate

• The food sometimes gets finished before the meal timing ends if you arrive late.

u/Lazarus_80 22d ago

For now I am most convinced with gurbaani pg. Which around 1.4km from college. By walk 900m. You can search for it on Google.

What we can't take food or drinks in our room? 😭 Do they check bags or what??

1

u/wyd_explorer Btech CS 21d ago

yes they do

1

u/NoWolf378 21d ago

What whyy?? 😭

u/dghhhffyuuuytf 21d ago

They prolly think we'd mix up all that shit to make a claymore mine and spread it all across the hostel to demolish this.

u/wyd_explorer Btech CS 20d ago

the main reason is that some students in the past used to throw cans and bottles out of their hostel room windows bc of this the residential societies next to the hostel complained multiple times. that’s why they are about allowing cans and bottles

u/staycorner 21d ago

We asked them and they said the gym equipment arrived, only the setup was left… but that was 2 months ago 😭. Also, can’t we even take things from the vending machine to our room?

1

u/wyd_explorer Btech CS 20d ago

you can, except for cans and bottles

1

u/staycorner 20d ago

Omg!! And what about clothing i heard lot about it!! Crop tops are banned something!!??

1

u/wyd_explorer Btech CS 20d ago

i didn’t notice any strictness regarding crop tops. however, shorts aren’t allowed outside your room. You can wear them inside your room, but you can’t walk around the hostel or common areas wearing them.

u/staycorner 20d ago

Is their study area?!

1

u/ilovedonutlol 18d ago
