The Majestic Bed & Breakfast

Quiet location, local shops and restaurants, very nice balcony, 10 minutes walk to Thamel.

Room was good but it's on the small side. Staff was very friendly. The included breakfast was nice to have (choice of eggs, a few apple pieces, toast w. jam & butter & tea or coffee (toast & drink can be refilled). There is a short cut to Naya Bazaar Marg and it's paved, so no need to navigate the dirt road. It's a detour if Thamel is your destination though.

- For the room w/o bathroom, there is only one BR on the 1st floor, there are no other BR's on other floors you could use. I hadn't encountered that in a long time. I also didn't feel comfortable with the BR itself. - One time, I visited the BR and the floor had been left extremely dirty. Picture someone with muddy outside shoes walking around a wet floor. - Other guests smoked in their rooms and the smoke seeped into the hallway. - Some of the other local guests also spoke quite loudly one night past 11pm. - The breakfast is usually taken on the roof but there is only one table that isn't kid-size (you can have your bf in your room though). Overall, I found the high 9.0 not entirely justified.

Vishal is a very nice person. He called a taxi for us, lent us a hair dryer, and a delicious breakfast. He helped us a lot. We all like him.

It will take a long dirt road to go back to the accommodation from the urban area, of course, it can be solved by taking a taxi.

Price point was good. Staff was nice and accessible 24 hrs.

The almost-attached bathroom, especially the tub shower, was very dirty. The budget room I got was on the ground floor, right next to the reception.
