It was our first time in Oman, and we honestly couldn’t have wished for a better holiday. The accommodation is beautiful, spotless, and perfectly located just a short walk from the beach. There are several great restaurants nearby – and the food was some of the best I’ve ever had on a holiday, all for very reasonable prices. The owners are incredibly kind, welcoming, and always ready to help with absolutely anything at any time of the day. Thanks to their hospitality, we felt completely comfortable and truly taken care of throughout our stay. Overall, this was an unforgettable experience – a beautiful place, exceptional hospitality, and a fantastic location. We highly recommend this accommodation and would love to return

My stay experience was exceptional and wonderful. The owner is very friendly and takes great care of his guests and generously provides them with tourist information. The owner, Basil, took me and others on a tour of the city. I also liked that the Wi-Fi connection is very strong and there is great attention to the cleanliness of the facilities. In fact, I felt at home among my family and I was happy with the experience and I will repeat it in the future, I highly recommend it.

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.
