Rules

Namaste is a place to hangout and chill with friends, it's a place from backpackers for backpackers, so we don't deal very well with spoilt behaviour: the tasks have to get done as good as you can; the guest's comfort must be priority; our neighboors shouldn't be annoyed. Besides from that, you're free to befriend people, party, plan daytrips, and do as you please during your free time. All of it with respect :)
