I really enjoy the hotel’s vibes and environment here. It’s such a chill and relaxing place, especially the lobby’s outdoor balcony area, which is perfect for hanging out and makes me feel at ease. The rooftop also offers a beautiful view of the Merdeka 118 building

It’s got this great balance of being super social but still clean and well-organized. The free black coffee is a nice touch in the mornings, and I really appreciated having laundry facilities to freshen up during my stay. The swimming pool adds such a cool vibe to the place, it’s perfect for a mid-day break or a post-adventure dip. The events they organize are always a blast especially pubcrawl and bbq, you’ll meet tons of people here. If you’re up for a good time, this is the hostel for you!

Amazing hosts, all Kenyan sisters. The guests actually seemed handpicked. After seeing so many old, sketchy men hanging around the hostels and trying to make you uncomfortable at every chance, this place felt like a breath of fresh air. I failed at finding a hostel with no sketchy men here, probably you will too.

This place was such a great find – super budget-friendly, but still really clean and comfortable. The bathrooms were spotless and the dorm beds were surprisingly cozy. Plus, the hostel is right in the city center, so it was easy to walk to the major spots or hop on public transport. Definitely good value.
