It was the worse accomadation ever irrespective of the low cost. A very unfriendly enviroment and the place has cold atmosphere. I left the accomadation just after i had a cold shower and forgot some of my belongings. I am lost on my stay which

Crammed and no privacy,it was terrible experience.
I would like to leave a review about this hostel – it is absolutely terrible. It’s completely unsuitable for travelers. The room was dirty, the bed sheets hadn’t been washed in weeks, there was trash lying around, and the bathroom was incredibly filthy. I definitely do not recommend staying here

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service
They need to fleet the beds bad bugs,and the staff friendliness to guest
Hostel is located in a quiet residential neighborhood within a large two-storey house with easy access to the free metro link busses and a 15 minute walk to the bustling "Bangkok type" Al Matar Al Qadeem Street"
The owner Hassan kindly collected me from the Metro Station and showed me around local area, vicinity and brought me to the hostel.
I spent over two weeks here. Rooms have all basics including air conditioning. The place is not perfect and not without some minor issues but of good value for budget travellers visiting the heart of Doha. Regardless of anything of most value is the intention of the staff, Ahsan, continuously trying to ensure I was happy and working hard to provide a clean, comfortable environment on a daily basis for me & all of the hostel guests! Thanks to Ali aswell for also accomodating me so kindly and being available when required.
Hope to see you all again soon in Doha!
