9Verified guest“We'd stayed at a similar place in Manali, but Yolo Backpackers OG exceeded what we expected. The staff were lovely, the view was amazing, and the vegan pasta was a nice surprise. Chandan was especially helpful, and the friendly dogs were a bonus.”
9Verified guest“Stayed at Yolo Backpackers OG surrounded by beautiful trees, with a nice view from the room. Chandan and the staff were quick and helpful, which made the stay delightful. The two friendly dogs, Panther and Ludo, added to the charm. Great value for the money and a central spot in the heart of old town — a memorable stay.”
9Verified guest“In the middle of the backpacker lane, we had peaceful nights at Yolo Backpackers OG. It's near charming cafes and felt like a quiet escape. Room cleanliness and amenities could be better, but overall it was a decent stay. I'd recommend it.”
