Fantastic staff, the hospitality was at its peak. Adnan and his colleagues made the environment feel more like a home, rather than a hostel. Everything was extremely clean, Adnan picks you up and drop you off at the airport anytime you need, and the restaurant near home provides a large variety of food. If I were to miss a flight in Abu Dhabi again, I’d definitely be staying here another time – extremely good money-value ratio!! 10/10 (tips: ask for the chai with milk)

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.
