Sim-Sim Hostel & Backpackers Yousef Steel

Good place

The problem was Wifi speed & short signals.

The owner was brilliant and super helpful. We had a little room in the courtyard which was great. Lots of restaurants and cafes in the Neighborhood.

Really nice location, a bit away from the main tourist sites but within a 15-30 minute walking distance for most places. Great park nearby with two calisthenics parks and lots of food options. Garden was a nice bonus. Clean spaces. The host kindly stayed up past midnight so I could check in. I had the entire dorm to myself. Overall, great value.

WiFi was not strong - at least in my room. Harsh white lights inside the room, a softer yellow would be better. I wasn't sure if there was a breakfast - Booking.com lists the hostel as a bed & breakfast but there was no breakfast just to clarify. One of the showers has hot water, but the other is cold water only.

We really appreciate how accommodating the host is. He is incredibly helpful and kind, and we're so glad we chose this hostel. Our family had a wonderful experience here, and the host treated us with great kindness. The interior is also lovely. We highly recommend this place!

Everything is perfect, nothing could be better. A big thank you to the host! Highly recommend. It's also very close to the tourist spots, and there's a Mini Mart nearby as well.

The room was clean and comfortable. Shower was good. Location was a little far from the sights (though walkable for me), but near a really good coffee shop/bakery and some restaurants. Owner was friendly.

People (not sure if they were guests or workers) tended to hang out In the courtyard just outside the door to my room smoking and talking.

Cute set up. Locked door to inner courtyard then into our room. Close to stuff we wanted to see. Shared kitchen facilities available.

Great mattress, friendly staff, good location

Great Hosts, quiet, perfect!

The place is great. The host Askar is so helpful and such a bro. The whole stay felt like visiting an old friend.
