At the hostel, the rooms include a desk and a balcony with a mountain view. Featuring a shared bathroom with a shower and a hairdryer, rooms at Backpackers Hostel also feature a city view. All rooms have a safety deposit box. It is the tiniest hostel where I have ever been. It's a beautiful place where you feel like a family. Directly close to everything in Ella.

Food at the hostel, and many restaurants and cafes along the railway track to town. The start of Ella rock hike is right next to the property as well.
