I really enjoyed my stay to be honest
The public area near bar, offers a great opportunity to be able to socialize from people in the hostel from all over the world.
Wasn’t able to swim cause the pool looked a little bit stagnant and not clear.

Overall, good stay. Small things to pay more attention to but I want to thank you for all! :)
The Hostel itself has both advantages and disadvantages. My overall experience was nice because of the people I've met there. The staff provides truly a family environment. It was a great start to my journey. Safari to Tarangire was arranged the night before, without a problem. Bopa the receptionist/tour guide has become my good friend, was a pleasure to go around town with him and get really deep insights and stories about the culture. Him and his family are truly amazing people.
The showers were public but weren't kept as clean as I would have preferred. Of course, no hot water, nor soap.. but later on my journey I realized that is a common phenomena. The room was all mine, due to low-season which was awesome. However, I wished the beds would haved had newer sheets and that the wi-fi would have reached to the room as well. It was available in the lounge area, outside tho. Also, I was quite hesistant to leave that area by myself, it was quite out of town. Felt limited that only with Bopa I was safe to walk around. The locals said it is absolutely safe but still as a blonde solo traveller I had to be more cautious. The breakfast included was also just peanut butter/butter and bread. Would have loved to have more local fruits for the price to be honest.

Splendid and Serene
The breakfast was a basic self-serve boiled egg, toast and a choice between coffee and tea (the mugs are kinda small, though. I liked that there was no early time limit. The location is in a residential area, surrounded by churches. I also got a great sunset view! Popati welcomed me well. Nelson, his wife and their two girls are just incredible!
What I didn't really isn't the hostel's fault but heads up to travellers that the cab services will almost always increase the cost of the fare, so make sure you agree before they come to pick you up.

A great place to meet other travellers.
The breakfast was good. Bread, boiled eggs, tea/coffee, and banana. The rooms were clean and comfortable with a spacious common area that has a nice vibe. It’s a bit far from the centre (45 minute walk or you need to get a boda boda or tuk tuk). The staff are really friendly and it’s a good place to meet other travellers.
The pool didn’t look very clean.

The place to be in Arusha, maybe even in Tanzania!
The place to be in Arusha, maybe even in Tanzania! It’s affordable, very welcoming and social (they have a lot of backpackers here so it’s always very fun!) There is a pool and the rooms are nice clean and have a hot shower. There is decent wi-fi and in the weekend they will take you to a local market! All in all a wonderful place to stay, our best one in our 1 month trip trough Tanzania.
it’s all perfect!
