One of the best hostels I’ve stayed in so far. Very spacious and comfortable common room with books, games, sofas and a big TV with internet connection. Big kitchen space. Good location with many restaurants nearby. Kind volunteers, Zee from Yemen is top notch. Plenty of opportunity to make friends, plan and travel together.

Nice staff, flexible with check-in time (mine was really late, I appreciate the waiting) and they let me leave my luggage and hang out in the common area after the check-out. The building is easy to find and you can also reach it with public transport from the airport - I took the bus A1 and took me 8-9 minutes walk from the nearest bus stop. Excellent value for money. Thank you Kaab and Mohamed and see you again inshallah! :)

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.

Absolute best hostel in whole Muscat! Kaab, the guy running the place is well- spoken , helpfull ( beyond what is expected) and flexible. As a solo traveler, it feels safe , to have such a person's whatsapp number if you get in situations where you dont understand what is going or trouble in anyway, anywhere! The place is the only 10/10 and very priceworthy! Totally recommend it !

The room was spacious, with air conditioning and fan. The owner is really friendly and helpful. It is a quiet and clean hostel with a pleasant atmosphere. The area around has a lot of restaurant and shops. The bed, still being a bunk bed, was quite confrtable.
