"I used it on a backpack solo trip. When I used it, there were probably no people traveling alone and the room was available by myself. I think the staff is gentle and polite and standard cleanliness as a dormitory. The details are as follows. Wi-Fi was only available around the reception and was not available in the room. The shower has hot water. I visited in April but it was a bit disappointing because there were a lot of mosquitoes in the shower room. I was a little scared that there was a big spider at the pillow when I woke up the next morning, but it's African. There is no air conditioner in the room, and the fans on each bed do not work, so I think it's hot in summer. It was also convenient because there was a tap with drinking water. The location is perfect and luggage will be kept in a room with a key. The staff here was very kind and nice to buy, but I was disappointed with other guests. This is not included in the evaluation as it has nothing to do with this hostel. It's just a warning to guests. During my stay, I was greeted by a 40-year-old traveler from Namibia. Then, after receiving sexual harassment that I didn't want to write here before I had a lot of conversation, I continued to be sexually invited. No matter how many times I refuse or ignore it. There was only Wi-Fi in the reception, but I had to pull it up to the room with a minimum use. I was afraid what to do if the person was followed to the room at night or ambushed in the shower room. I thought about consulting with the staff, but I was afraid that I would be reversed by the attention of the staff, so I couldn't say it after all. Due to the nature of the dormitory, I always have the possibility of meeting such a person, but it was really disgusting. Please note that he often said he used this place."

"Overall, for a hostel this was a good experience! I was not worried about safety because there was a safe in our room that was big enough to hold valuables like laptops. However, because it was a hostel the cleanliness of the room and shared bathrooms were average, but good enough for a one-night stay. The restaurant had very slow service because everything is cooked to order. I waited around 45 min for breakfast when only one person had placed an order before me. That said, it was delicious. I think this hostel has a great location near the airport and I appreciated the complimentary airport pick-up and daily shuttle to the falls."

"I highly recommend my hotel in Livingstone. The environment here is very good, the staff is very enthusiastic, you can communicate with the front desk about the itinerary and ask the front desk to help book a car to Kazungula Pass and enter Botswana. The breakfast here is very clean, there is a pizza oven in the kitchen, where you can eat freshly made pizza, and you can watch the European Cup. There is also a bar in the hotel where you can come here to relax and meet other people at night. Highly recommended, affordable, beautiful environment, and friendly staff.
