Basil Hostel

Mit das schlechteste Hostel in dem ich je war. Die Lage ist ca. 30-45 Minuten per Auto vom Stadtzentrum entfernt. Es ist eine Regel, die Schuhe vor der Haustüre auszuziehen, was ich auch grundsätzlich nicht schlecht finde und es in vielen asiatischen Ländern auch total normal ist, Problem ist nur das der Boden an sich super dreckig ist. Ich kann nicht genau sagen, wann das Badezimmer der Männer das letzte Mal gereinigt wurde, es sieht auf jeden Fall nicht so aus als würde das regelmäßig s...

when i arrived at this hostel around 3 in the middle of the night they informed me they were overbooked so i had to find another place to sleep or sleep on a matrass on the ground in the public space. this is hostel unworthy and bad management. normally if you book a place to sleep this means you have right on a bed in the hostel not a matrass on the ground. what should I do? fix another hotel in the middle of the night? hope they learn from their mistakes and don't to this to any costumer again

Das Hostel befindet sich im Umbau. es ist ca. 1km weiterweggezogen. Bei Ankunft wurden wir dort hin gefahregefahren. die küche war nicht fertig, sodass es keine Kochmöglichkeit gab, keinen Kühlschrank. Bäder nicht fertig. Türen standen Tag und nacht offen. hochbetten so wackelig, dass man mit mehr als 70kg unten schlafen sollte, ansonsten kommt einem das Bett entgegen. man merkt jede kleinste Bewegung des unteren. es ist ein 8 anstatt 6 bett dorm.

The hostel primarily caters senior travelers and temporary Indian workers. The vibe is very weird. There are only two showers at the hostel and shower is not working. As bizarre as it might sound, on my last day morning there were human feces on the hallway.

It's basically a nice and sociable hostel whichis well located, but the cleanliness of it very questionable. The upstairs toilet upstairs had not been cleaned for two entire days which is an absolute no-go.

Basil was friendly and helpful. Only 2 bathrooms for all the guests. Close to the airport.

The hostel is very social with nice seating areas, but the front door is open all day, which feels a bit unsafe. Not all lockers work, and there is no alternative for storing valuables. The bed linen smelled unpleasant. The bathrooms were the worst part: dirty, full of hair, and the men's shower smelled like a toilet. Okay for one night, but not again.

Es un hostal muy sociable y sin querer buscarlo, haces amistades facilmente. Toma en cuenta unas cosas: 1) Hay pocos baños para la cantidad de personas 2) En Mascate hace muchísimo calor y el hostal está relativamente lejos de alguna parada de bus para llevarte al centro o a la zona turística, que implica un viaje de 50 minutos. De haber sabido eso, pagaba un poco más por otro hospedaje De resto, mucha buena vibra y buena disposición.

Prima basic hostel voor op doorreis of voor een tussenstop. Vriendelijke eigenaar Basil! Ruime slaapzaal. Fris en schoon beddengoed.

The lounge area is quite good to sit, chat and relax. The staff is helpful.

AMAZING. Near to the airport!

It’s a very social hostel, great atmosphere I enjoyed my stay. The only issue is the water pressure which was very less.

Most welcoming and nice hostel. It really feels like a temporary home!

Amazing Hostel, great energy

Amazing experience. The hostel is comfortable and the atmosphere is super chill and friendly. Definitely a good choice

Miss my time here! Very chill and community based hostel, Basel and Ziad are really lovely people :)

The best hostel vibe ever! The common area was my favorite so cozy it felt like home. The dorm rooms are ok, but the bathrooms/showers were not the cleanest. Kitchen has everything you need. We meet amazing people and would come back any time!! Thanks Basil 🤗

The Best Things is This: If You Have Extra Food, Place It In A Free Food Section So Those Who Don’t Have Food Can Benefit And Enjoy It.

good and better

everything was perfect. they create an atmosphere which is very welcoming and there are some tours offered so its easy to meet new people. Also, they really go out of their way to help you, if you have a problem (for example if you lose your passport). definitely will come back!

I had an incredible time at Basil Hostel! There was a very homely, social and friendly vibe facilitated by the owners Basil and Ziyad. The hostel also has group trips so you can explore and meet some more folks. Pro tip: there is one bathroom per room, so best to use it when it is freshly cleaned

Amazing vibes, met a lot of awesome backpackers. Basel, the host, is a backpacker himself and was extremely welcoming and created an amazing vibe at his hostel. I had a great time at Basil Hostel.

A really nice hostel, good location and a good atmosphere. The owner and his brother are amazing people, really helpful with everything.

Place to stay in Oman. Super easy to make friends, and the hostel runs tours. The hostel attracts well-traveled interesting people. Staff are friendly. Only two bathrooms in the hostel, so long waits for shower/toilet. Beds have curtain, electric plugs, and nightlight. The hostel is a bit far from tourist attractions, but is right beside a plaza with lots of food options. I had a great time.

Very nice place loads of travellers, Basel the owner is such a nice guy, very friendly welcoming & his friends hang out here so nice way to interact with the locals, location was good loads of eateries, cafes, the facilities were a let down, 2 bathrooms across the whole place, bed were okay, rooms not too crowded like some places, deffo would return here !

Great place to meet backpackers!
