GGuest UserOverall, I liked the hostel. It's close to the metro, clean, and comfortable. The women's room for 6 people has its own shower and balcony. There's a cooler with drinking water and a refrigerator. Good WiFi.
It's a good value for the money.
On the downside, the common area is small, not ideal for eating. You can clearly hear what's going on outside the door. There's no sign on the door, so I had a hard time finding the hostel.

AangelacrazyyyI had a very pleasant stay at this youth hostel in Dubai Marina and was very satisfied with the overall experience. First of all, the location of the hostel is very convenient, close to the metro station and shopping mall, and there are restaurants and cafes around, which makes life very convenient. The room is spacious and bright, the bed is very comfortable, the sheets and bathroom are very clean, giving people a warm feeling. The common areas of the hostel are also very suitable for socializing, with modern and creative designs and a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere. The staff is very considerate, always smiling and willing to help. What surprised me most was that my companions who have lived here for a long time said that when I came, there were several other people with me, and we were the most interesting and wonderful people they had met. Overall, it is very cost-effective and I will definitely choose this hostel again and recommend it to friends.

GGuest User+ quite central location in Deira near metro station
+ dorm lies towards the backyard, not towards the street
+ quite friendly employees
+ grocery stores and hypermarket nearby
+ i had power sockets near my bed without needing an adapter
+ curtains for lower and upper bunkbeds
+ good wifi
• hostel lies in the approach path of the airport. So you hear airplane noise from time to time
- hard mattress, did hurt somewhat on the bones
- basic shower and bathroom
- several cockroaches mainly in the kitchen but also in the dorm
- no duvet cover for the blanket
- blanket and pillow case were smelly. i don’t think that they are washed after every guest’s check-out.
- you feel it in your bunk bed when the person above or below you moves
6.9/10
ZziyeThe hotel is fantastic, the rooms are clean and tidy, and the service is warm and thoughtful! When I checked in, I mentioned I had a lot of luggage, and the front desk proactively upgraded my room and gave me a small gift. They really paid attention to the details. The breakfast was varied and the transportation was convenient. I'll definitely come back next time!

VVadim NedelkoThis is a wonderful hostel. Everything is in good condition. The residents are also good people. It's just a few metro stops to Dubai Marina. There's a 24-hour supermarket in the building next door. The price is excellent. There's a balcony to hang clothes to dry. Multiple toilets are available. It's quiet at night. I will definitely stay here again. It's rare to find a hostel in Dubai that's both inexpensive and good. Honestly, it deserves an 8.5 out of 10.

GGuest UserWell, first of all, you'll never find one. We spent an hour wandering around the neighborhood asking people how to get into this wonderful Stay Inn. Until a guy from a nearby store took us there. God bless him!...
Second, the organization is lacking in the accommodations. Nancy, and others, are certainly very friendly and willing to help, but only when they're nearby. They don't respond to WhatsApp messages at all; maybe it's their religion or something else. But they say they read them. Strange...
So, if you, like us, have an ESIM with internet only, you won't be able to call them. WhatsApp calls don't work in the UAE without special arrangements.
Third. According to the rules of this accommodation, you have to check out by 11:00 AM. We needed to check out by 10:00 AM, which I told Nancy about. But she doesn't read WhatsApp messages. We decided to ask the security desk in the lobby to call her or one of the organizers and let them know we needed to check out. We thought we could have left without saying goodbye, but the 200 dirham deposit was holding us back. So, security told us that Nancy was working from 11:00 AM and would be back at 11:00 AM, no earlier than that. They kindly offered us the chance to wait on the sofas in the lobby. At 11:03 AM, we asked again, ”Where is she or one of the organizers?” ”Let's call them now.” Security answered and started making calls. At 11:15 AM, a girl arrived wearing a Pharaoh emblem—the same emblem they'd used to check us in. We went with her to inspect the room, then she leisurely counted out 200 dirhams, and we said goodbye.
To summarize: Overall, the room was clean and nice. As long as the manager is on site, any issues can be resolved. But as soon as he/she left, it was the end! We couldn't write, couldn't call, couldn't get through...
It was a valuable experience for us. We don't expect to repeat it. )))
Good luck to everyone!

GGuest UserI used this hotel for a business trip. It was closest to where I needed to be. It’s a little difficult to find because the office is in a room that looks like a residence within the building.
Each room has a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and then tons of rooms partitioned from each other. It’s kind of like a capsule hotel which is not what I was expecting. The bathrooms are hard tile but there’s no amenities. As such, I didn’t shower during my stay.
The cooling is central in the public areas but not in the rooms. So you’re at the mercy of whomever sets the temperature.
It was a cheap place to stay and the staff were great.

ДДарьяExcellent new hostel, clean, well maintained, pleasant staff, comfortable beds, bathrooms separated for men's and women's, light breakfast. Of the minuses, the beds are wobbly, towels are 20 AED. Otherwise a very good hostel.
Since it is new, it is difficult to find, it is located on the 9th floor of an apartment building, the reception did not know about this hostel, I had to call and check the apartment number.
