    Laudry service with so complicated pricing system (different price for every cloth type) that they can't provide you with estimate. We ended up paying twice what I expected and what I considered reasonable

    Overall it was ok

    We weren't given the same room we booked for the first night, though they changed our room for the other nights.

    Perfect location, 2 minutes away from ganga river. There is a roof top cafe which I love, cozy and good food.

    Nothing, all good!

    Very friendly and warm hosts, who make you feel like home. We loved the location of the guesthouse, because its very near the ghats at a convenient and calm place. Besides that, rooms were spacious and clean with a nice view. We will definitely stay at Baba Guesthouse when we will ever come back to Varanasi. Thanks again!

    The economy room I had to move to for final 2 nights, although clean and comfortable with attached bathroom, had no window so no natural light.

    Lovely friendly guest house in a great location just minutes from the river and ghats. helpful staff. I used their airport pick-up service as I arrived late at night. I was very grateful as vehicles can’t get to where the accom is and not sure I’d have found it on my own! but easy once you have your bearings. I booked a sunrise boat tour through them (in small row boat) which I’d highly recommend. I had only booked an economy room but for my first 4 days they put me in a deluxe room on the upper floor which offered a view of the Ganges which was lovely. there is a lovely cafe on the top floor which does great breakfasts.

    The inner-hashbolt of the room was not good, I had a feeling that if someone pushes from outside, it will break open. It should improve. Also the inner hashbolt of the toilet was not working.

    Location, behavior, staff are good. Location is very good. It is just 10-15 steps away from Munshi and Darbhanga ghats. If one does not like the steep stairs of the ghat, then they can easily come here through Bangali Tola. The stairs of the Guest House gave us old-world charm, but not ideal for elderly people as they are steep. But for young people it is good.

    Baba Guesthouse is located right on the Ghats and is central for all that is going on. Within 2 minutes you are right on the river. Perhaps the nicest surprise was the rooftop cafe. This is a gem serving really nice food at great prices

    The location is not very clear. Once ordering an Uber we couldn’t get to the hotel simply because cars and tuktuks can’t reach the location. Would have been nicer if they had told us in advance. Only reachable by walking.

    Nice and simple place. The restaurant upstairs is amazing. The staff is very helpful. Overall good experience.

    The property is itself very interesting and elegantly decorated. Mind the stairs, which may be a bit steep for elderly people.

    It's a heritage property nested by the side of Ganges in one of the many alleys of Bangalitolla. The people are very helpful, always available to cater to the needs of the guests; the 'Adha Adha Cafe' at the rooftop is a superb place to chill, and their food is also outstanding; the rooms, although not very large, are cosy, comfortable and budget friendly. There are comfortable sitting arrangements throughout the lobby so that the guests can hang out wherever they want. Gopal ji and his wife were very warm and welcoming. They are actually the bridge between the bulk of foreigner backpackers and travelling Indian families - they make both feel at home. This is a recommended place for both solo and group travelers.

    everything was perfectly fine

    We absolutely loved our stay at baba guest house. The room we had booked had no AC, and by the time we arrived they offered us to take a look at another one and choose witch one we preferred. The room was clean, shower always hot, bed was comfortable and we had enough space. AC was working perfectly too. The restaurant upstairs is great (what makes breakfast super easy!) and the staff is suuuuper helpful and kind. We had a lot of questions since that was our first time and stop in india and they didn’t hesitate to help us the best way they could. Plus, location is great to explore the city! After looking through a lot of places in Varanasi, Baba Guest House seemed the best, and we are certain that going there will be a great experience for everyone :)!
