We only stayed for a short amount of time for a layover between our flights but would have loved if we could have stayed longer. The room is very clean and comfortable. The hosts are very kind and helpful. We asked for airport shuttle as well 2 ways, which was a very reasonable price. Would highly recommend.

A charming and cosy hostel in Muscat centre. Perfect location, clean, peaceful and cosy hostel. Very cool relaxed vibe, but also rules are there so everyone would be able to enjoy their stay. Very comfortable mattress and pillow, I slept like a baby. It’s peaceful and quiet after 11pm. Toilet had a great pressure shower and is always clean. Kitchen is very cosy and has all you need. Location is very central and super safe. Has many lovely restaurants around to eat, huge mall close by and if you want to use public transport the A1 stops also near by. The hostel manager is very welcoming and will give you lots of advice of what to do. If you’re lucky and he’s free you might go on tour which his company organise too and I can’t recommend it enough! You’ll have the best time and see hidden gems of Oman with a true spirit of adventure. Definitely recommended! Thank you for all, I enjoyed my stay in your hostel very much!

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.
