I would like to leave a review about this hostel – it is absolutely terrible. It’s completely unsuitable for travelers. The room was dirty, the bed sheets hadn’t been washed in weeks, there was trash lying around, and the bathroom was incredibly filthy. I definitely do not recommend staying here

Hostel in Quiet Residential Location

Hostel is located in a quiet residential neighborhood within a large two-storey house with easy access to the free metro link busses and a 15 minute walk to the bustling "Bangkok type" Al Matar Al Qadeem Street" The owner Hassan kindly collected me from the Metro Station and showed me around local area, vicinity and brought me to the hostel. I spent over two weeks here. Rooms have all basics including air conditioning. The place is not perfect and not without some minor issues but of good value for budget travellers visiting the heart of Doha. Regardless of anything of most value is the intention of the staff, Ahsan, continuously trying to ensure I was happy and working hard to provide a clean, comfortable environment on a daily basis for me & all of the hostel guests! Thanks to Ali aswell for also accomodating me so kindly and being available when required. Hope to see you all again soon in Doha!

Clean room & Great location to airport

I stayed here for 1 night on my layover. It is conveniently located only 10 minutes from the DOH airport which was easy. The room was very clean and I also enjoyed the use of a full kitchen. There was always someone available for security as well. Doors have locks. The staff was very friendly and helpful.

Lit dans dortoir (2 lits superposés et 1 lit simple) Proche de l'aéroport (une station de métro et bus M125) Accueil insignifiant. Check-in rapide. A ma demande, j'ai pu obtenir pour les 3 autres nuits un lit au niveau bas (merci) La propreté est douteuse : un papier sur le bord du lavabo de la salle de douche est resté 3 jours et j'ai de grands doutes sur le changement du drap de dessous et de la taie d'oreiller qui sentait mauvais. J'ai d'ailleurs vu faire un changement de draps seulement de la couette et de la taie d'oreiller quand un client est parti Le reste de l'hostel est négligé et sale (photos non ressemblantes) J'ai demandé plusieurs soirs de suite au personnel de parler un peu moins fort et de rire moins fort pour qu'on puisse dormir (23 heures). Pas de papier WC malgré demande !!!!! Dommage car c'est un bon produit. Au calme. Bonne literie. Le patron devrait changer tout le personnel qui ne sert à rien et qui donne une mauvaise image à l'établissement Depuis la station de métro, on accède rapidement au centre de la ville

This is an excellent, high quality, unbeatable value option for single adults on a budget. Staff are excellent, helpful, and friendly. Venue is neat, spotless and homely, in a quiet neighborhood that is well served by easy shopping. Highly recommend.

A fuir absolument

C'est la plus mauvais choix que vous pouvez le prendre!! Vous allez passer des nuits cauchemardesques dans cette auberge. Attention, il n'y a pas des moyens de transports en commun pour y aller. Il n'y a que le taxi qui coûte cher pour chaque aller-retour. Vous allez voir des insectes et des punaises de lit de tout genre !! C'est vraiment une arnaque cet auberge.

安さを重視して女一人で宿泊しましたが、とてもよかったです。バックパッカー慣れして安さ重視の人にはおすすめ。 安全上などの不安は、場所としても、客としても、とくにありませんでした。夜に一人で近くを歩いても安全です。Uberもすぐきます。 相部屋を選択しましたが、鍵付き女性専用でした。 お客の国籍はさまざま。アラブ、中央アジア、中国、アフリカ、ヨーロッパ。男性がほとんどです。 シャワー、トイレ、キッチンは男女ふくめ共同ですが、不安を感じることはありませんでした。 アラブ系スタッフさん達(みな男性)も、とてもポライトで優しく対応してくださいました。Special thanks Ahmad君。Thanks Manager Hassanさん。 メトロの駅は徒歩30分しますが、徒歩1分の場所に大型スーパーがあり、カフェテリアやテイクアウトレストランもあり、生活に困ることはありません。 中東の一軒家で生活する経験は貴重だと思いますので、よかったです。 ただし、バックパッカー経験がない人には難しいかもしれません。 また、キッチンにハエがいたりトイレにあの虫(ただし、色が薄くて動きが遅いのでそんなに怖くない)が出たりはします。 綺麗な場所に寝泊まりしたい人はお金を払ってそこそこのホテルがいいかもしれません。

Beware that this hostel is not really centric. Nevertheless, tt is connected to Ibn-Nafie through the bus M125. It is used more than by tourists by immigrants while managing their visas. The mood is not especially funny. No lockers. The toilet was not clean the days I visited it. If you want a simple and affordable stopover stay it may be your option, but be aware that it may not reach your standard.
