Hakuna Matata Hostel Shared Room

I went to town for a wedding and just needed a bed to sleep so this place seemed ideal. They mentioned having oatmeal and waffles for the guests, but I just went here for a bed to sleep (and a bathroom). I guess the saying is true, you get what you pay for. It was a cheap option close enough to where I had to be.

I didn’t like that I had to send a photo of my ID via text before getting information on how to get in, it didn’t feel safe/secure. I really wish I could have been greeted by someone when I checked in or something! When I finally arrived, the place was TOO quiet, and seems like there was only one bathroom even though it’s 4 bedrooms with multiple beds in the rooms. Fortunately I didn’t have an issue with that but it could be a problem if more people were there. My room had 3 beds, one had a suitcase next to it but I never saw another person. And the the other two beds were made but seemed loosely made- I couldn’t tell if someone had already slept where I did or if they were fresh sheets. My room was very dark when I returned at night and I didn’t know if the owner of the suitcase was in the room so I was hesitant to turn on a light. I also didn’t know anything about who might potentially be in the room with me so I couldn’t fully rest, not to mention- the unsettling quite that was originally noticed earlier soon got disrupted just before midnight with the smoke detector chirping every 30 seconds. Eventually I woke up at 630 but since it was Sunday and nothing was open yet, I couldn’t get out there fast enough. I was grateful to have a place to pee and a bed to sleep in - but my overall experience was a bit unsettling unfortunately.

Fue un alojamiento muy tranquilo y seguro. Todos los huespedes con quienes comparti la habitacion fueron muy respetuosos y tranquilos.

KITCHEN FACILITIES ADEQUATE, pancake batter available. Otherwise, bring and cook your own. Good security. Well maintained.

Inadequate parking for multiple guests. This is a house with four bedrooms. Not near public transit.

The bed linen doesn't have a duvet cover. The blanket itself is just awful. There are no face or hand towels.

Was very nice & quiet
