Guest Reviews
- Michele (8/5): Very good -
- Ktaiba (9/5): Superb -
- Aungle (1/5): No - Nothing much. Really bad place. I was not given clear instructions. When I arrived worn out after a long journey, I fell asleep as no one was around. Then I was awoken and given rough treatment, such as telling me a lot of stuff at once and I just wanted to rest. It's in a unit not a proper backpacker. Not as good as the pictures make it seem. Avoid! I left and found a proper place to stay.
- Ktaiba (9/5): Superb - It's so quiet Far from the city centre

- John (10/5): Exceptional - Wakaka was one of the homiest hostels I've been to. I had a chance to meet wonderful people and even learnt how to swim🏊♂️, thank to Alan. I'll miss this place!
- Evgenii (8/5): Very good -
- Anonymous (9/5): Good value - Property was conveniently located. Relatively quiet. And had access to a gym and pool. Though no erg in the gym Check-in instructions weren’t clear. I tried calling the provided number but they only answer WhatsApp
- Tayyab (7/5): Quite reasonable - Location was good... Accessable from all parts of the city via metro train The A/c is being switched off in the morning by 11 until 5.... Which is no where mentioned during the booking
- Muhammad (6/5): Pleasant - it's a good choice if you're a backpacker or traveling on a budget. The location is about 2.5 km from the city center — around a 15–20 minute walk. It’s not super close to the main tourist spots, but the good part is that there's a metro station entrance right inside the building, which makes getting around easy.
The place itself is like a duplex apartment located on the 13th floor of a high-rise. It’s dorm-style — the upper floor is for sleeping, with one shared room for males or mixed guests, and another for females (I think each has about 6 beds). The lower floor is where the common areas are: a living room, kitchen, washing machine, and the reception area.
It’s clean and well-maintained, and the vibe is pretty relaxed. The staff were nice and helpful — especially the Italian girl at reception who was always cheerful and friendly. Her colleague (I think her name was Dee) was also helpful and supportive, though a bit more serious — didn’t catch her smiling at all haha 😄.
Each bed has a locker, the showers are clean with hot water, and they also give you access to a swimming pool on the 4th floor of the building.
Overall, it’s a cozy and clean place that works really well for solo travelers or backpackers looking for comfort without overspending.
- Moamen (9/5): Superb - Everything is nice 👍 Nothing
- Diego (5/5): Cheap but I wouldn’t stay again - The people were friendly, and the location is close to a metro station :) so is easy to go everywhere The bathroom was dirty, no privacy at all in the beds, and it was super uncomfortable, I barely could sleep a bit. Malasya is a cheap country so my recommendation is spend a few euros more but stay in another hostal.

- Jason (8/5): High Up - There is a small Kali temple nearby, which is mildly interesting.
- Amanda (6/5): A stay with a great location and quiet atmosphere, but with some issues in cleanliness and reception - The location is very good, close to the train station, with restaurants and a 7-Eleven nearby. The entrance to the hostel is quite confusing – there are no signs inside the building, and it takes a while to be attended to, as they need to come downstairs to receive you. The place is okay and mostly clean. The people staying at the hostel respected each other's space, and the environment was quiet and suitable for sleeping. It would be nice to have a curtain on the beds for more privacy. The shower drain was clogged, but my friend unclogged it and it worked fine afterwards. There are other bathrooms available, and they are relatively clean.
- Răzvan (8/5): Very good - Spacious room with locker. Good location and close to two train stations Bathrooms were kinda dirty.
The bed was very squeaky.
Some people were unfriendly and would completely ignore you, not even saying hi back
- Md (10/5): Exceptional -
- Lauren (8/5): Very good -
- Jacopo (7/5): Good -
- Keriem (7/5): Good - The owner is really nice, I accidentally went to the other hostel there are two locations and he walked me all the way to the right room and gave me a female in stead of mixed which I thought was fully booked. Shower is warm which is nice the room smelled like weed the second night and the beds had very little privacy because there are no curtains and they are close to each other. The location was not in the city centre which i thought it would be. Also no towel provided which is ok because its very cheap it’s just not 10/10
- Sugandh (6/5): Good experience - View from my room was amazing. Staff is very friendly and helpful Beds can be a little sturdier but for the price , it was ok
- Niall (10/5): Exceptional -
- El (10/5): Exceptional -
- El (10/5): Exceptional -
- El (10/5): Perfect - Pool
- Chai (2/5): The worst hostel in my life - Nothing i like as a tourist. But this location more suitable for those who work nearby. 1. Very hard to find inside the building in the first time.
2. Overall hostel setting just like an ordinary staff hostel.
3. The toilet is the worst i ever experience. Flushing toilet isnt work properly. The wall is unclean n stain is everywhere.
4. Bedroom is so noisy.
5. Bed n mattress uncomfortable.
6. Kitchen is messy with dirty cups and bags everywhere.
7. Location isnt suitable as a tourist.
8. I bet u will regret if you stay in.
9. The light advertisement MEGA TV come in from outside at night.
10. The traveller i met werent friendly. I was nightmare when i was there.
- Ekeoma (7/5): Good -
- Mustafa (8/5): I was so happy and had great time while I was in this place. - The property was absolutely beautiful and was in a very quiet place.
There was a lovely swimming pool on the 4th floor. The property is on the 13th floor and fantastic city view.
I highly recommend this accommodation to all travellers. Walking from city centre to the property is a little confusing with road work in place.
- Regency (6/5): Pleasant -
- Emmanuel (10/5): Exceptional -
- Emmanuel (10/5): Beautiful - Everything was perfect None
- Jesus (9/5): Superb -
- Horne (6/5): Pleasant -
- Mughal (10/5): Exceptional - Staaf is very hambel
- Anantrai (6/5): Pleasant - 13th floor Everything
- Denisa (4/5): Disappointing - The subway is right next to the hostel I wouldn't recommend going there. As a solo female traveler I was alone in the room with a group of men (only woman in the whole hostel), the bathrooms were dirty, there wasn't even a pot for cooking even tho they had the stove.
The hostel itself was really hard to find, and the swimming pool was on the fourth floor looking at a highway and some old houses.
The hostel is also quite far from centre, and walking there is really hard. (You can take the subway but it takes some time to get there anyway)
Personally I just didn't feel comfortable in the place.
- Jacson (8/5): Very good -
