    It's all excellent, it's just that there are different cultures, different thoughts, different women and so many women. It's normal for you to get a little overwhelmed, but it's okay.

    I have been to many hotels and some are not always like the photos but this is it!!!!!

    If you are a female travelling alone of with female friend(s) and you want to explore Dubai and, why not?, make new friends, this is the place to stay. The location is the best to explore one of the most vibrant areas of Dubai by feet (been an ex-resident of Dubai, I’m familiar with most of the areas), and the apartment, even though it has shared rooms, provides all the amenities you need to feel comfortable and at home. 100% recommended and will definitely come back!

    The hostel is a VIBE! The best energy I’ve felt from all of the hostels I visited in Dubai. Good location. The owner brings his puppy sometimes and that’s definitely a PLUS. Nights are fun watching movies, having conversations, having dinner together or going out. The owner and his team make everything smooth and easy. I highly recommend

    The best bit was the super helpful staff!
    • Leisure trip

    It was a shame that it didn't seem very clean overall - I saw dust and dirt in the bathrooms and the bins hadn't been taken out for quite a while either. Also, there seemed to be people sleeping on the sofa/couch who didn't seem to move much which felt a bit uncomfortable and unhygienic.

    The best thing about the hostel was the extremely helpful staff, they were exceptional - especially one wonderful guy named Mahmoud who went above and beyond helping me from the beginning. I had issues with my bags because of the floods and he went out of his way to make sure my things were safe and got delivered to me in perfect order. I can't thank him enough!

    One of the best hostels I’ve stayed at! The receptionist is super nice, as well as the owner 😍 you can find everything you need in the kitchen, i cooked breakfast every day. Also it’s possible to do laundry there as well, which was comfortable. The wifi worked great in the room and in the main area as well. I liked that the main area was super cozy, I honestly felt like home! 🥰

    Nada

    For you to work in tourism, you cannot only think about money, the well-being of your guests is essential for you to be successful. You need to be a flexible and understanding person too, especially because the guest is a tourist, a stranger in your country. I had a problem with my dates, and Mahmoud was understanding . So I can 100% recommend this hostel. Mahmoud was exactly like that, a great host. I also recommend it for the good location, cleanliness of the rooms and organization, good views, beautiful decoration etc Thank you very much

    I wish I could stay longer than only 4 nights... 😊

    As soon as I entered the hostel I felt it was like coming home. The living room is amazing and very cozy with a great balcony view. The bathrooms and the kitchen are very modern and clean. It's actually a 4 bedroom appartmant with 3 bathrooms where you can relax feeling very comfortable, just like home. One more thing - it's only for female guests, so it's very safe, which is a big plus, as well as the washing machine on disposal. There are also 2 swimming pools and a gym on disposal, but I didn't have time to use them. Just outside the building there are 2 supermarkets. The communication before the trip was excellent, I was sent detailed instructions to the place and received a warm welcome upon arrival although it was already after midnight. The owner of the place (Mousa) is also very kind, friendly and really cares about making his guests feeling very comfortable. I love this place and I am sure I will stay here next time I come to Dubai. Thank you Mary and Mousa for a great experience!
