Mess is the best one in Manipal, they make very good food in general, even though the quality fluctuates often. For enrolling, you just have to talk to the Manager first and then if he agrees, you can join through the SIS portal. For the hostel, you just have to login through the SIS portal and choose your hostel type, then pay the fees through the appropriate method. The hostel is a bit expensive with AC rooms currently costing 170000 Rs and Non AC rooms costimg around 130000-140000. The washing machine facility is available and laundry facilities are also available, though it is extra( rates depend on the dress).

I was in hostel for 2 years, the fees is okay and the amenities are good, WGSHA hostels are run by the college and are the only ones with a washing machine the mess food is also pretty good I live in a pg now called stanza living but the services are good but the food not such

The food quality I'm wgsha hostel is amazing possibly the best amongst all hostels, in manipal hostels are the cheapest of all options they provide laundry and mess facilities, i live in a PG with similar facilities but no perm time , stanza living san Pedro, vidya ratna nagar

I had opted for hostel services and it was a very good experience, the room would be cleaned every alternate day. The perm time is 10:30-11 and the food was okayish i would say, you would get chicken every day in two meals and biriyani is fixed kn sundays

I have opted hostel for all four years, hostels and mess's are a bit expensive on side but still they are all worthy for the money paid , specially try to opt only for wgsha mess, hands down best mess in Manipal.
