I met some amazing people there but this one manager ruined it all.

The property was in a good location and it started off well with other guests that stayed at the hostel. Cleanliness is something I can truly note over there.

The manager Cynthia was absolutely horrible with me and another friend of mine. First off, the description was misleading. It was a 12 bed room with bunk beds, not 6 bed room. The WiFi hardly worked. It kept switching to different hotspots. I upgraded to a different room after a few nights. One of my smaller lockers over there didn’t work. I raised all these issues to her and she just burst out saying “You might as well check out right now and we will ban you from the property”. I said do you know I can leave that in the review? She just outright said “I can get your review removed.” I just grit my teeth and stayed the night and left the next day. I have to place this review now considering another friend of mine Jon who was staying there said Cynthia was extremely rude with him. They kept his bag and are not returning it back to him saying they want 400 dhs. Jon was supposed to come back. They didn’t even notify Jon about this. He found out through another guest staying over there. This is absolutely horrible.

Inaccurate room description, lies, untrustworthy people and broken toilets and lights

It was clean and the cleaners worked hard although seemed unhappy with how they were treated and management.

This is an incorrectly described hostel rub by untrustworthy people. Firstly, I booked a six bed dorm and was given a 12 bed dorm. I told Cynthia - the receptionist/'property manager' - and she said it was 'six bunk beds' so was accurate, but it was not. This is not how you list the room. She refused to change it to make it accurate. I also told her the listing said - twice - that it was on the beach and had a beach view. It was not - this hostel is a 20 minute drive away from the beach! This was false advertising and again she refused to change it. She also blamed booking.com and said they wrote it - which they do not. I used to manage a hotel in Australia and a hostel in Vietnam and know how to edit the back end of booking,com and only the owner/manager can do this. She then blamed the 'IT team' (there wasn't one). I offered to show her how to change it and she refused meaning she knew it was inaccurate and chose to keep it that way. The light and flush in the bathroom toilet in my room were also broken, as was part of the toilet downstairs. There was also no hot water in the shower in the room. She said this was a 'new problem that day' but many guests in my room told me it was not as they had been there for days and complained about it and nothing was done. The wi-fi did not work either and this was mentioned several times but they just claimed it did work. My roommate complained about the wifi and was verbally abused and told he would be kicked out of the hostel if he kept complaining. I had two nights booked (19-21 Jan 2024), then a few days in Kuwait and Oman, and then was due to come back for one night (30 Jan 2024). I did not like the hostel but the people staying there were nice, My roommate agreed to look after a bag of mine with 7kg of stuff in it while I was away as we would be sharing the room again when I was back.

Bathroom was 2 floors from the room and no hot water happened.

- location is on the bus line from the airport, and quiet; - night reception;

- toilet was 2 floors from the room and it was crowded; - at 9:30AM when I came to take shower, there was no hot water. The boiler was switched off and cool. They save money on facilities, they get the respective feedback; - wifi internet was garbage. Although, it seems to be a common problem in Abu Dhabi;

Está muy bien situado para hacer escala en Abu Dhabi

Las instalaciones estaban limpias, pero había un poco de desorganización y la gente usaba camas que no le correspondían, y después se cambiaban. Está muy bien situado si vas a hacer escala en Abu Dhabi. El bus N2 o A2 para en la estación central (muy cerca caminando), y tiene servicio nocturno. Cuesta unos 4dh. Está bien para dormir un rato y darte una ducha. Se ve bastante cuidado. Se supone que las habitaciones eran de 6 camas, pero en realidad son 6 literas (es decir, 12 personas). Me parece demasiado para un sólo baño, que además está dentro de la habitación. Por la mañana me fue imposible ducharme, porque perdía el avión. El baño estuvo ocupado desde que me despertaron sobre las 7.00h hasta que me fui. No hay mucha intimidad. Estaría bien que las camas tuviesen unas cortinas. El enchufe al lado de mi cama no funcionaba. No te dan toalla, tienes que pagar por ella. Si quieres dejar las cosas después de hacer el check out, te cobran por ello. A mí no me hizo falta, pero en otros sitios que he estado cerca de esa zona me las han guardado unas horas sin coste, y me han dado toallas. Las literas hacían ruído cuando te movías un poco. Aún así, si buscas algo barato en Abu Dhabi y bien situado, es una buena opción. Y además está limpio.

This hostel I guess better than other in the city. The service is good, but breakfast so-so.

I was in 3 beds room. Made reservation last moment. The 3 beds room is comfortable enough. However, I'm not sure if other 6 beds rooms similar comfortable. I was surprised that overall it is more or less clean and people friendly there and no noise during the night, and good enough kitchen (where I can have coffee or tea and eat something) and good enough shared bathrooms. It is good enough to stay one or few nights when you have no choice and want to find something cheaper at the last moment (but the price that I paid for one bed in 3-beds room was similar to the price for apartment in real good cheaper hotel, and the problem was that I had to do reservation last moment, so there was no available apartments in hotels, because of gas conference during these days of my stay, so all hotels were already reserved in advanced in the city).

It was first time in my life to live in hotel where many people in every room. Maybe you need to wait to get to bathroom, maybe you need to worry for belongings (however they have cameras). Breakfast (included) not so tasty, but Ok just to eat something in the morning.

Helpful staff

Cynthia was very very helpful, charming and easy going. The best of our stay was her. The cleaning was good.

I missed some lockers to make it safer. A/C was always at night on and if you had the bed in front, then was too cold. I missed some bedding for the duvet. Also the ad can lead to misunderstanding, it mention 6 beds, but are 12 beds, the excuse was 6 “Bunkbeds”, very sneaky under my opinion.

Cynthia is an excellent manager - knowledgeable and eager to make everyone’s stay enjoyable. 5 mins walk from the Centra

Spotlessly clean and also cleaned throughout the day. Guests from many countries and a great outdoor area where you can chat. Also a good kitchen where I prepared and at meals.

I liked everything.

Хороший хостел по соотношению цены и качества

По меркам этой страны, одно из самых недорогих мест для проживания. Но при этом вы получаете достаточно комфортную обстановку. В комнате, где проживал были установлены массивные качественные кровати, с не очень мягкими матрасами, но мне так даже лучше. На комнату был свой отдельный туалет. Имеется кухня. В пешей близости в пределах 5 минут имеется много маленьких супермаркетов, едален, большой торговый комплекс, автобусный терминал, при этом немного в глубине частного сектора, поэтому шум машин отсутствует, в общем местоположение отличное. А ещё в соседнем здании посольство братьев беларусов, не знаю почему, но этот факт дочтавлял мне просто дополнительного спокойствия 😂 в номере были шкафчики с ключиками. Есть Wi-Fi. Встречала нас администратор Синтия, моих небольших навыков в английском вполне хватило для взаимодействия, спасибо ей.

Best Hostel in Abu Dhabi

The host's customer service is impeccable as she goes beyond and above the measures to ensure your best experience while staying at this property. She is responsive all the time. Thank you for everything, Cynthia. Your customer centric approach is just phenomenal. The mattresses are of medicated quality, best for comfortable sleep. It seems the property is cleaned multiple times in the day, especially the washrooms. Highly recommended and would definitely stay again there next time.

Nothing.

Falta limpieza baño

La localización al lado de la estación de bus. La encargada, me ofreció información turística de que visitar y como acceder a los sitios

El baño no estaba limpio. Que la encargada del hostal me pidiese un suplemento de dinero por dormír en la cama inferior pues era una litera. Lo cual no acepté
