The room that I got was huge. The entire house was clean and shiny. My bathroom was immaculate and huge too. The couple who runs the property is very helpful and friendly. I arrived at 9am, check in was at 2pm. Since my room was vacant, they allowed early check in. I also requested breakfast. They charged me an extra OMR 2. It was a simple breakfast but it was a home cooked breakfast. The location is also good. Located within 5 minutes walk to the beach. I took a taxi to the mall. Cost me OMR 1.2 (less than 4km journey). There's a grocery store, Starbucks, pizza joints and a local restaurant and coffee shop, all within a walking distance (less than 1km).

Anuse and Salah are the hostel workers here they made me feel so welcome. I had a bad experience coming from the airport but they were there to rescue me. They treated me like family and did everything to make sure I was okay. We had the best laughs and they were good enough to make sure that everybody in the hostel made friends, they accompanied me everywhere I went and made sure went on trips together with the other visitors. As a solo female traveller, travelling also for the first time. I wasn't so confidential however, I felt much safer with them around. These two made my visit very special and I will never forget them ❤️❤️ The family room is large and but even in the female dorms everybody is lovely.

This place is super clean, very quiet and the room though simple had everything I needed. I was impressed at the way that Host had thought about so many details including a drying rack, iron and board plenty of electrical and USB outlets and a very decent size bedroom and big bathroom. Also very good airport pick up service-much cheaper than the taxi.

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.
