    No any respect from people that stay there from long time.

    Unfortunately there are people inside who have no respect. Music with mobile phones, never lower the volume on whatsapp messages, shouting until 3.45 in the morning. I felt bullied and no respect. They are in the hostel and not at their house. Unfortunately people who have been in the hostel for a long time have no respect and hope you leave as soon as possible. The hostel is not bad, the host should put a strict rule. I paid like the others and like the others I expect to rest at least from 11pm to 7am.

    The owner was good person

    The place would not be convenient for a single woman. For a single back Packer Guy who wants to avoid wasting money in Big hotels, the place Is acceptable for a few nights but some clogged sink issue must be fixed.

    The worst hostel

    So many things to mention to dislike this tiny hostel. One room has 6 bunk bed and another room has 5 beds(the picture they always shows). This is another trick. I thought that I will get a bed of that 5 bed room, but no, It was not.With all of your wonder you will see that there is no front door in that 6 bunk bed room. I can start from the location. If you go through the google map, it will take to a different location and you will not be a lucky guy where pedestrians or locals or shop owners can guide you to your destination. The guy who pick up the call and told you the direction will never be there , no reception, waiting place or a large wash room or toilet or a kitchen or dining or a TV room was there which I got in other hostels at the same prices in different locations. No one was there to clean or wash toilet, bed change or hear your needs . A man will come only at evening and that's it. The whole time front door was open and some guys who were waiting to move another country were staying in the room and sometimes talks loudly. Toilet was very very small and full of hairs as it was not washed regularly. I wonder an older guy came late at night and started quarrelling with me for the lower bunk bed, later he tried several times to make a chaos with me too . As if he pretend to be A MECHANICAL ENGINEER and told me that if I keep my charger pluged in then others can't use or charge their electronic devices. How ridiculous and a poor guy !!!! I got relieved after I left that worst ever experienced SHORT TOURIST PLACE. I will never recommend anyone except that 2 particular nationalities to book that place. A total mess of your time, money and peace.

    Nothing to like in this hostel with the amount I paid for staying 3 days.

    The place isn't really a hostel, it's a two bedroom apartment with some beds. There's no sign outside to help find the place. There was no toilet paper for two days, even after I complained with the staff.

    The location is great, really close to the metro station and a supermarket right around the corner. They allowed a late checkout with no complaints.

    Not recommendable at all. During my visit, Aside from the dirty and smelly room, I discovered that their hostel allows men to join ladies in a room, which is not only against my personal beliefs but also a clear violation of the regulations in the UAE. As a responsible citizen, I cannot overlook such a breach of law and moral standards. I requested a refund for my cancelled booking but the Management has no care at all. Never got my money back!

    toilet cleanliness.

    there is only 1 guest aside from me so a sharing room for 5 would be big. i really did not expect much that's why i was not disappointed cause i was just really looking for cheap accommodation in the area. you get your money's worth. its not clean - linens may not have been replaced so just bring or buy yours if u need and want. the best thing about this property is the location and price. dont expect much with amenity and cleanliness. rooms are clean but toilet and kitchen isn't. so dont expect much. again, u get ur money's worth. id stay here again if i have to, with consideration of quiet location and price.
