Asal and Yousef were wonderful hosts. I had some difficulties while there and they went out of their way to help. They are kind and genuine people with a deep interest in others and rich integrity. Yousef was on call to drive to the various parts of town. The room was spacious and modern and well maintained. I recommend their stay to anyone.

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.

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.
