It's sad that there wasn't AC in the room, the heat was too much, but we managed.

The company was so open and kind. It was easy to have a lot of fun with the other visitors. Also the manager and the visitors seem quite the same. Like they are all friends. The staff is putting a lot of effort into making you have a wonderful stay with lots of activities you are invited to join. But privacy is also accepted. Anyone can be like they are.

The fact that I had to leave in a day as I had planned a short trip :(

The host were great and really understanding, the location was peaceful even thought it was in the middle of the city, the kitchen has all kinds of facilities to cook from oven, to water heaters, fridge, utensils etc perfect for you if your going to live for long, you'll meet a very diversified crowd and make good friends, if you go to Bangalore this is the hostel you should live in. It's the best !! Cheers to Byoc, gonna be coming back soon !!

A welcoming space in a peaceful location. The hosts, Jigar & Adha, exuded warmth, making sure you feel right at home. I did have a wonderful time here and I definitely recommend this place for anyone seeking a fun and memorable stay. Coming back for sure!

1. Dorms and bathrooms are cleaned upon request. However, daily housekeeping/cleaning of dorms and bathrooms is required. 2. Pillows provided are extremely hard and high. It can be uncomfortable and cause neck/shoulder pain during longstays.

BYOC is where communities come alive. With tastefully furnished interiors and amenities ranging from an underground gaming arena with a range of games to choose from: Xbox, foosball, table tennis, a dropdown projection screen to stream your comfort film on, and card and board games and books, it's a home away from home and a place to engage and interact with the community of some of the most interesting personalities that inhibit the space. Other amenities include a fully-equipped kitchen and in-house laundry. Jigar and Adha (and Rani, the cat), a team of warm and radiant (read: ever-smiling) hosts, are going to make you feel welcomed every day of your stay. Drop in and say, "Hi!" to find out for yourself.

There’s nothing at all.

If you want to experience best hostel life in Bangalore undoubtedly this is the place for it. I just stayed here for a day and I am so loving this place. The people are so friendly and welcoming, there are a lot to do like games, activities, fun events and night outs. Also the place is very clean, well decorated with all the needed facilities and amenities. Only place in Bangalore where I experienced the backpackers hostel vibe. Even if you are an introverted traveller you will go out from here with a bunch of friends and lots of memories. Jigar, Adha, Abbey they will make sure that you had wonderful and fun filled memories here. Will be staying here again next time when I come to the city. I have tried to capture their best features in pictures. By the time you visit, there might be lot more changes and upgrades here, don’t miss that out.

Social spaces could be cleaned more often

The people were very friendly and helpful. The facilities in the female dorm room (bedding and locks) and social spaces (mattresses, books, big living room and terrace) made it a very comfortable environment to live in. A separate work room helped to take meetings and have a quite place to sit.

Stayed in October 2023

The bedding in the common lounge could use some sunning and vacuuming, especially because the place is pet-friendly and has two kittens sharing the common spaces.

Excellent location. Great value for money stay. The host, volunteers, and fellow residents were polite and friendly.

The place is near to Indra Nagar. Jigar was very friendly. The place is very neat and there was small games every night and two little cute cats. It's more of community living rather hostel. Please support BYOC and don't spoil it.

NOTHING ..As they just started they need some time to grow.

The owner and management are very nice. The atmosphere is pretty cool along with the location and specially 2 cats :) they are very friendly. This is newly built so I prefer to visit once and I would highly recommend to your stay.

The best part of this hostel is that you are right in the city. The host Jigar was very kind and very helpful throughout my stay. Surely it is worth the money.

Nothing much, it was a new building had a lot of saw dust due to wood work they were doing, it's something i had to accept since I was the first customer.

The location of the hostel was well selected, the staff and volunteers were the best people. Had a very good stay, kept extending because didn't feel like leaving. Had a very unique experience in a house program called "muzafiron ka mehfil".
