Hotel quality Hostel

Reviewed By anjb90

I absolutely loved my time spent at the Rodamon Riad Hostel in Marrakech. My first stay, I was in a 4 person female dorm room. I'd never stayed in a dorm room before and the experience couldn't have been better. Not only did I have wonderful roommates, the room itself was clean, well organized, had air conditioning, curtains on the beds, and the option to lock your luggage in your own storage space. I appreciated too having a locked room that was only accessible with a key. My second stay later in the week was a private room that felt like a hotel room. Once again, it was clean, well stocked, and safe. All of the staff I interacted with were incredibly helpful, whether it was with booking activities (I booked a walking tour, hammam visit, and 3 day desert tour through them) or helping me when I spilled water all over my duvet. They were all ready and willing to help. I really appreciated it too when certain staff remembered my name - its always a nice touch! The common areas of the hostel were beautiful and well kept, especially the rooftop! Such a beautiful place, and I hope to come back someday.

Amazing surftrip

Reviewed By 668v_torp

I spent a really good time in this place. First they went to pick me at the airport. When I arrived there Chaimae was an amazing host helping from the first day until the last (had some problems with my drone and she even talked to the authorities to sort the things). Other thing that I really enjoy was the food. I'm vegan and they were really helpful explaining and asking what I wanted to eat. Hamada was my surf instructor and I highly recomment it. Explained how I could improve my surf and for the 4 days I so some improvements . Definitely I will go be there again

Two nights too long for this run down and dodgy hotel

Reviewed By darrons354

My friend and I stayed at this hotel for two nights. The owner is very charming and funny, but he is a smiling assassin. He will do anything for you, but over charge for it as well. I don't use the word lightly, but he stole from myself and a friend. He said he could get us a train ticket to Cairo that wasn't the sleeper train, and save us money. We paid upfront like he asked. About 10 mins before we set off the the train station, he said he couldn't get train tickets (we checked later and still train tickets available, but has got us a bus if we leave now. He got to to the bus station and gave tickets to the driver. It was when the driver passed them to us we realised he has overcharged us E£400. We paid for tickets to Alexandria, but the coach only took us to Cairo. It soured our stay in Luxor. It cheap, but not when he is ripping you off. Please avoid this place. He also preasures people into doing reviews before they have left, in front of him. Don't do it and say you will write it afteryou leave. Watch your wallet, know the price of things and don't let people overcharge you, which they will try to do everywhere in Luxor.

Trendy hostel

Reviewed By sebass970

Nice place to stay. A little out of the center but easy to reach by public transport. The manager Walter is ready to help you out with anything, and they offer a lot of safaris and trips to the surroundings. It's as clean as you'd expect from a hotel, great place for short and long stays.

We do this through recycling and upcycling old wood, metal, tires, etc. to make unique furniture and other nice installations. We are proud that, wherever possible, we use Ghanaian goods and Ghanaian craftsmanship.

A pearl of a hostel

Reviewed By Stellarsly

I decided to book a hostel in Accra during a recent work trip so I could meet like-minded people and be in a more vibrant neighbourhood. And boy am I happy I did! My first room on the ground floor was quite dark and noisy, especially in the early morning. My second room, the deluxe room, was spacious, had everything I needed included a kettle and fridge, and a view of the garden and pool. The breakfast was copious and tasty, and I was able to order food for delivery for my other meals. I was delighted with my stay. I would heartily recommend, but with the caveat that it's very noisy in the mornings so either go to bed early or bring earplugs!

I was on a business trip and i wanted to stay for 1 night for a job interview i needed a place that is cheap and clean in a good area in downtown Cairo, the staff are amazing and lovely specially Ahmed and I really really enjoyed the stay and I’m actually planning to stay extra night as the service was truly unexpected and i wanna stay more in Cairo, the area is very calm and if you are seeking value for cash freedom hostle is highly recommended. Das war der beste Aufenthalt, den ich je für diesen Geldbetrag hatte, dieser Ort ist sehr zu empfehlen. Danke für den Aufenthalt. Loui
