    I like the location, where you can view the outside from the high floor. Besides that, I believe is pretty nice and clean. Everything is organized and staff will teach you how to use the facilities.

    This place made me feel home away from home. I am super happy with everything and I don’t have a single complaint. Mr (Akmal) is a great manager. He always made sure that house is clean and enforced proper rules for all hostels are followed. Under his management this place is bound to grow. I also want to mention that Mr Harry and Miss Nafeesa are the best housekeepers. They prepared such mouthwatering food and kept our bed tidy and clean. They both are gems and I will definitely return and stay. This place will be my always go to place in Dubai whenever it comes to accommodation

    Absolutely loved my stay at the hostel! The perfect location right next to the beach. The rooms are properly cleaned everyday and they provide clean towels and bed linens everyday. The hosts are the sweetest people and they take care of all our needs. Don’t think twice and book your stay

    The mattress was too rough for my injured back.

    The staff were amazing, people followed the rules, location is good, nice view, clean facilities, and nice people. Veeeery organised, you have your designated section of the drawer, locker, and shoe locker. Totally recommended.

    You can see how the staff is making it a good vibe around here, not for your money! It's just they're amazing people! Hahaha i lost many things and Nafissa and Hary found it before i had to ask for it. It's a clean and safe place!! I highly recommend it! Also, i gave them some clothes to wash, and i got them super clean and with a good smell.. Also Akmal one of the staff is super nice!

    There is only one shower for three dorms, but we never waited more than 5 minutes. If you arrive by car, beware that there is always a traffic jam.

    The staff was AMAZING. They were more than friendly and helped us with everything. The rooms were clean and comfortable. But the best thing about the hostel is the location, it’s right in the center of marina, you can walk to the beach in 3 minutes and there are a lot of restaurants and activities around you. But since it’s in the 32nd floor you can’t hear a thing when you sleep. The staff is also very consistent with its rules, so nobody is allowed to chat loudly in the common area or dry their hair and do other loud stuff so that everybody can get some sleep. I would definitely come again!

    Overall it was good! No complains!

    My stay at Alphatel Hostel in Dubai was exceptional. The manager, Akmal, set the tone with his warm hospitality, allowing me an early check-in to accommodate my early morning arrival. His polite and helpful nature made me feel welcomed from the start. Throughout my stay, I was impressed by the dedication of the supporting staff, Harry and Nafisa. They maintained the hostel impeccably clean and tidy, ensuring a comfortable environment for all guests. Overall, Alphatel Hostel exceeded my expectations with its outstanding service and attention to detail. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a cozy and welcoming stay in Dubai.
