    Stayed in the girls' dorm, but their was no womans bathroom or private bathroom so you still had to share with the men.

    The staff was very nice and helpful. Thr breakfast was good and the lady who prepared it was nice. The place was clean considering how many people were staying there and they did have a lot of activities to choose from.

    The location is a bit far from the sea (~15 min walk), but it's also more chill than the corniche.

    Amazing hostel that organizes a lot of fun activities! Delicious classic and healthy egyptian breakfast, the double bedroom (that is like a small flatshare) is very comfortable and the chill garden is a great place to chill.

    Everything was exceptional ! These people definitely know how to run a hostel community. First time to stay in a hostel in Egypt with these vibes, from creating a community connecting everyone together to creating exceptional trips and events along the week to the spectacular breakfast everyday. And most importantly feeling completely safe as an Egyptian female solo traveling

    WiFi can very occasionally be spotty but it was rare.

    I can’t say enough good things about this hostel and staff. I can go on about each and every staff/volunteer but spent the most time with Gina and Youssef and they really made such an effort to ensure we travelers had a great time. Positives: incredibly friendly and helpful staff, facilities are clean, toilets and washrooms are clean with ample hot water and decent pressure, delicious complimentary breakfasts, beds are comfy, and aircon works great. One of the best attributes to this hostel is the social vibe and daily activities. Perfect for solo travelers. One of the most social hostels I’ve ever stayed at.

    Staff was amazing, the breakfast lady gave me butterflies every morning, it is an amazing social hostel where you will definitely create strong new relationships and it is on walking distance of everything relevant in the centre.

    Bathroom was not 100% clean. But not too bad. At a big street. There are other accommodations directly at the beach.

    Super Nice staff and nice hostel social vibe. For example talk to people at the breakfast. Ahmed especially sweet and the breakfast Lady. Super nice "Appartment" with kitchen. Smart Tv. Very new. Washing machine. Nice social events and activities as beach night and more.

    Such a lovely hostel in Dahab. I continued to extend my stay day after day. Great vibes in the hostel, and excellent activities organised (camping, hiking, volleyball, snorkelling, etc). A credit to the staff and management of this place. Can’t recommend it enough.

    Only thing is that hostel is spread over more building so pairs are bit detached from others. But we knew it ahead so was our choice.

    Very nice staff, great vibe, terrace, every day activities so people gather together, ....
