Alles war unkompliziert und für die erste Nacht nur um zu schlafen war super - hat alles gut geklappt!! :)

Das Wasser am Morgen aus dem Wasserhahn war ganz braun … das war wohl der einzige negative Punkt!!

One of the best hostels I’ve ever been in. Very clean, super friendly staff that had an answer to all of my questions, nice food and not expensive at all. Wish we’ve stayed here the other time we were in Windhoek as well. Also, we were with small kids and they really liked it as well. There’s enough to do if you want to meet other people, I think, but there’s also enough space to quietly hang around.

"Best place to connect with other travelers in Windhoek"

9.0

The atmosphere in here is amazing. It is the best place to meet up with other travelers. Plenty of activity provided in here including free walking tour. Definitely will be back in here if I'm back in Windhoek. The pizza for dinner is great too!

Probably nothing, only that sometimes the water has lower pressure at least in my room.

Szkoda że w ubikacjach w niektórych pokojach łazienka nie ma sufitu co skutkuje przenoszeniem się wszelakich zapachów do sypialni 😁

6.0

Close to the city and easy to walk to many parts. also provides a great environment for meeting and connecting with travellers from around the world. During my stay, I met many open-minded, friendly, and kind people, which was one of the highlights of the experience.

For the price paid and duration of my stay, the place is relatively okay. I wouldn’t advise for longer stay though. A hostel or guesthouse does not need to be luxurious, but basic hospitality, respect, and professionalism from the staff should be expected. Unfortunately, that was not my experience here.
