Very poor facilities: we stayed in 2 rooms, 1 did not even had a window; just a hole in the wall. Hostel was not clean, beds were awful. No diesel generator thus every day cold water between 9-11 am. Food was not prepared right; chicken was raw (after the complaint, the owner said "we always make it this way"). We saw the owner filling bowles of yoghurt with his bare hands. Expensive internet: 100rp a day for wifi. Owner also asks for full deposit of the money in advance. Location OK.

In 3 and a half weeks in India, this was by far my favorite hostel! Wonderful family to stay with in the old city, AMAAAAAZING view from the rooftop, great place to hang out and meet other travelers too, and the home cooked food is FANTASTIC!! A great call by any account!

great hospitality. good location in the old town. the interior layout of the guest house is beautifully designed. we are allowed to check-in at 6am, and our room is upgraded to a better room for free. unfortunately the wifi and the pick-up is not free, and the clock in the lobby was a bit noisy since it gave out some music every hour, and it could be annoying at night since the wall of the hostel doesn't block the sound from the outside at all.

The guest house is situated in the heart of old town overlooking the Mehrangarh fort. Excellent 360 degree view of the city from the roof top restaurant. The owners are warm & welcoming. Would highly recommend the place !

I stayed at Amar Niswas for 2 nights and was made to feel extremely welcome and looked after by Sunil and Neena the lovely couple who own it. The room was basic but very comfortable and clean. There is a lovely little restaurant area where they will tussle you up some authentic Indian cuisine. The location is great - it's in a quiet area just 5 mins walk to the fort and a short walk to the clock tower and centre of the action in Jodhpur. Overall, a great stay at this homely little hotel x

Neena, Sunil and their son are quite possibly my favourite guesthouse family. During our stay they were beyond helpful with anything and everything. Unlike a lot of hostels, they didn't keep it "in the family" when giving any advice/ letting you know about interesting things to do, they definitely kept our interests at heart. Neena is also a fantastic cook, after our first meal at the hostel we barely went elsewhere.

I had a good time staying at their guest house. The owners are pretty nice, although sometimes too talkative. Apart from that I enjoyed the experience very much.
