We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The hostel is uniquely artistic with a charming fusion of Western design, setting it apart from others. A highlight was our wonderful conversation with the lady boss, who was delightful. Cleanliness is impeccable—a definite 10/10. We also appreciated the luggage storage service while we toured the desert. The location is excellent within the market, but do note that you need to take a short walk to the main road for taxi access.

Just wow! It's not a hostel, it's a cozy and warm house with so many cool pieces of furniture. I loved the little details and the spacious living room, plenty of toilets and showers, rooftop, not to talk about the lovely owners who are very friendly and helpful. I had a train at night after checkout and they let me chill in the common area until I wanted. The location is straight into the night market, however is not that loud at night (they even provide free earplugs).

This hostel is really lovely. The owners are so friendly and helpful. There are a lot of personal touches in the common areas, especially in the large sitting room. There’s space for washing and drying clothes, as well as filtered water available. I had a room with private bath, that was nicely appointed with lots of thoughtful details. I would certainly stay here again!

Amazing location, not so easy to find though. Tips: you have to follow these stairs on the side of the street
