The Aliment Hotel is a lovely place. It's clean, the heaters work, and so do the showers. There's even reliable hot water! If you've done much travelling in India, this place will come as a welcome surprise. The bottom floor is a café, where the Tibetan family who run the hotel cook great food, including a terrific Tibetan dish, which is a cross between a jam doughnut and a pancake. The price is low - about 70 rupees for a twin room (about £1 or $1.50) and is well worth the money. The same room has board games such as scrabble and chess, and a library of English books you can swap yours for. It's a home from home!
When I stayed here, my friend and I were both getting over Salmonella poisoning, and it was a great relief to be staying somewhere comfortable and friendly.
