I had a great time here. On the first day I got good feelings about the hostel. The job is not hard. Nina and hostel manager Fahmy such a nice people, of course all other staff friendly and welcoming people. So I would recommend to do volunteer. Over all it was a great place to stay at the south. I even extended my stay.

Overall I had a great time at the hostelβ€”the environment great and very social, and one of the managers genuinely cared about my well-being. I had a lot of freedom with the class schedule and co. The dorm is right next to the common area, where loud music and karaoke often go on until 12-1 AM. If you're a night owl, this won't be an issue. The dorm lacked storage space and comfort for long stays, but it was amazing to have a kitchen available to cook your own meals. The communication with the owner was good and I felt heard when addressing issues. Thanks for my time there!

The hostel was a very great place to meet international people and have fun with locals! This place is brand new and already has very great energy and vibes, it's a bit more on the party side of things so if you are looking for a more of a relaxing place it can be but majority is more social! I was social host then content creator and things went quite smoothly. There was a bit of a problem with another hostel and the hostel had my back and I really appreciate them for that!
