    Nothing. It's perfect.

    Everything! It was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. The staff were welcoming and friendly. Probably my favorite hostel in JBR to date.

    - Before you proceed for booking, remember that it’s a hostel with 6-10 people sleeping in one room, so expect to have some disturbances the whole night ( snoring, phone ringing, …) - Bring your towel/ soap with you

    -Hostel located nearby several attractions, and 15 min walk to metro -The host is so sweet, and welling to support in all aspect -I had unforgettable memories with other guests from all around the world - Water and coffee are served for free

    First I was a bit disappointed. There was not much light and no key for the lockers. However the lady working there immediately went to the supermarket to change it and brought as a key. The owner is nice and the hostel has an amazing view. In the end we were happy that we stayed there. The location overall is amazing, just in the middle of everything.

    My staying here was exceptional. The location is perfect, 5 minutes away from the beach, the tram and metro are really close and get you wherever you need and there is even a pool and a gym that you can use. The owner and the receptionist are very friendly and make the place feel like home. The place is being cleaned every day and the bed sheets are always clean. Also the common spaces are cleaned every day. Highly recommend it to everyone who wants a cheap place to stay! This place is amazing!

    I recently stayed at the Jumeirah Beach Residence hostel, and I must say it was a great experience. The hostel had a wonderful atmosphere, with like-minded people who made the stay enjoyable. The cleanliness of the hostel was impeccable, and it was clear that the management takes great care in maintaining the place. One of the highlights of this hostel is its stunning beachfront location, offering a fantastic view of the beach. The safety measures in place provided peace of mind, and I felt comfortable and secure throughout my stay. Additionally, the hostel provided adequate privacy when needed. The management team was incredibly cooperative and accommodating, always ready to assist with any queries or requests. If you're on a budget and looking for a good place to stay in Jumeirah Beach Residence, I highly recommend this hostel. It's a fantastic choice for both the budget-conscious traveler and those seeking a beachfront experience.
