The Pune University hostel offers affordable accommodation with an annual fee ranging from Rs 4,000 to Rs 10,000, but room availability is limited and allocated based on merit. The infrastructure is dated, with basic amenities and a dormitory-style bathroom setup. Despite the low cost, competition for the limited 10-20 seats per gender is high.
The hostel includes a mess with average food quality, but additional dining options are available on campus. The facility is centrally located, making it a cost-effective alternative to pricier private accommodations in the area. However, students must be prepared to compromise on comfort due to less space and congestion.
