228 Hostel

my place is surrounded by the mountain ,we have so many different hiking trails from 2 hrs until 3 days hiking in the nature.
مكاني محاط بالجبل، ولدينا العديد من مسارات المشي لمسافات طويلة المختلفة من ساعتين إلى 3 أيام سيرًا على الأقدام في الطبيعة.

I am Mahmood, your host, born and raised in Al Hamra (Oman). In January 2022 I opened 228 Hostel, because I love to meet people from other countries and to learn and talk about other countries. As a host I love to make you feel at home and give the best service, so you will have a good time at 228 Hostel and make the best holiday memories. I live in the hostel as well, you can ask me all kind of things about Oman, about activities to do around Al Hamra, your next plans, culture, traditions, food, Muslim religion or anything you are interested in. 228 Hostel on social media: Follow me to see attractions and surrounding of the area near the hostel. - Instagram: mahmood2oman - YouTube: mahmood2oman

Although it was a bit of a slower pace of life than I expected, I loved my stay here at 228 hostel! Mahmood is very welcoming to everyone that comes to his hostel and I enjoyed getting to go on hikes and learn more about Omani culture!

This is a peaceful and relaxing place, perfect for those looking to connect with nature. The cleaning tasks are simple and easy to manage, giving you plenty of time to explore. The host is kind and welcoming, The hostel is surrounded by hiking spots, and if you’re feeling adventurous, hitchhiking is a great way to get around and discover the area.
