Very spacious, very clean, the gentleman who works there can tell the history of Oman like a tour guide and helps with transportation and food. We can say that a place close to most locations can be stayed for months, summers are cold and winters are hot.

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.

    This is a great value hotel in the heart of Muscat City - great location which is accessible and cost effective for taxis to get around anywhere you wish! The staff were incredibly friendly, welcoming and helping and I enjoyed my stay. Ideal if you're just looking for a comfortable place to sleep whilst you're out on excursions for most of the day! Also, getting to the airport from here (and most landmarks) is cheap.
