I like the location near Almouj Harbour, because I went to see turtles in Dimaniyat Islands, just 10 Minutes with car, and to the airport, also 10 Minutes. The attention of the Personal is top. They cooked sometimes and we could share. There is also a nice beach with walking distance.

The property is located near most of the necessities, such as grocery stores, restaurants, and musolla (if you are a muslim). It is also a walking distance to the beach, which would take around 20 minutes of walking. The host also offers to bring you to a tour with a very reasonable price, which I would highly recommend. The host is also helpful, kind, responsive, and great to get along with. I will look forward to be staying with them again in the future.

All hostels in Muscat

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.
