Bakreswar Youth Hostel - Youth Hostel in Jhapartala, Bakreshwar - Birbhum, India

A very beautiful place, once you see it, you won't want to go back.

A ten minutes walking distance from main temple it is at an almost abandoned area although well protected. May be due to its poor maintenance and service it looks like ghost house. However, the place is calm and quiet surrounded by trees and with a police outpost in its adjacent campus.

Govt. Property from youth hostel, most rooms are not maintained properly. Location is very odd, away from main attraction of Bakreswar. Care takers are helpful and friendly.

Poorly maintained, unprofessionally managed well planned facility. The double bedded AC accomodation is OK if you find the bathroom geyser in working condition. Non-AC single room with common toilet is no good. Surrounding is beautiful and the space within the walled boundary is clean and spacious.

Lack of maintenance is visible as soon as you enter the premise. Caretaker does not stay and thus makes your stay horrible! Rooms are dirty. What is more, you have to arrange your food from shops situated few kms away

Very much decorated. Well Furnished, rooms are quite well and service is also good. Stuffs are friendly, they can also manage foods.

This is my fourth trip in last two years. After a gap of thirty years since I visited this place in 1988. Felt the same comfort but with a new look. I felt like a hero in sunil gangopadhyay or samaresh Basu novel. Felt very nostalgic as they have carefully preserved the ambience of my boyhood"s liking. Too bad they can't attract too many tourists. Its a treasure for all of us to explore.

Very poorly maintained. Govt invested huge amount but there is no maintainace. Manager visits once in a month on pay day. Only one attendant to serve all guests (20 rooms). Concerned dept. should look into it.
