Considering the price and location (near by Kilimandjaro and Arusha national parks), the hostel is good value for money and with a delicious cooker that will prepare you good home made meals (veggie options) after a long hike.
Hot water was not functioning more than 5min, which is ok but if some people are seeking for that, they better be not expecting hot showers and/or hair dryer to not catch a cold.

Rafiki Backpacker is a good choice, no doubts. Hostel is clean, staff is really nice and helpful. Its not located in the city centre, but its only a good think. There is not much to see in Moshi itself, it´s just a busy city. Hostel is in a quiet neighbourhood not far away from the centrum, easily reachable with tuktuk for 500 tzs.
At the reception I booked a day trip to the Materuni waterfalls and coffee farm ant it was great! The guide was really nice and the nature and village were just stunning. Dont miss it out!
