Mycket trevligt hostel med hjälpsam personal. Mysig atmosfär och härlig stämning. Högljutt om kvällarna. Enkel frukost serveras. Långt till närmsta affärer, restauranger och annan service. Motorcykeltaxi eller taxi tas om man ska besöka sevärdheter. Rummet var i gott skick. Sängen var skön och myggnätet var i gott skick. Prisvärt. Kan rekommenderas.

A very nice place!
This hostel is a very nice place. During my stay here I met many interesting people from all over the world who were out traveling. Also the staff were very talkative and open, I had as much fun with them as the other travelers. They have an open dining area with a TV and sofas. This was the meeting area for all people when they enjoy breakfast together, and sometimes also lunch and dinner as the hostel serves very nice food and beer. To go into the city centre is only a few minutes with a motorbike which can be found just outside the gate. The bathrooms were not always that clean which was a bit disturbing but it was okay most of the time, I guess this also depends on who is staying there at the moment since you all share bathrooms.

Great place to meet nice people!
Great place to easy meet nice people! A must for people traveling on their own. Only downside is that its not directly in the city, however motorbike taxis will take you there within 5-10min for one dollar.

Mycket trevligt hostel
Bra hostel, bokaffär, bank, bageri och restauranger i närheten. Filmvisning för gäster och trevlig uteterass. Morgonmålet var lite sämre: toast, marmelad och kaffe. Men rekommenderas om man vill ta det lugnt några dagar i Kigali.

They are currently shifting to the place across the street, so things are bit haphazard as they make the change. They did switch us to a different room when our key wasnt working. They also worked very hard to accomodate us in other ways. Overall good experience.

Nice place, all was good. The building needs some renovation. However, new management is aware of that fact and improvement actions are planned. Thank you for the time @ your hostel.

A place to sleep, bring your own food and Coffee
Low cost. And the outside area was cool. Showers and toiletts was ok. Tried to contact the hostel some day before arreivel, to organize transport from the airport, but No answere on email. If you want food with your Breakfast get up early and start waiting in the food area. There will only be food to the 4-5 frist in line.

It was disappointing with communication issue between Hotels.com and the accommodation. I booked a twin room but there was no my name on the list and no available room. Wifi is only available at the reception hall and canteen area. Apart from this experience, the reception staff helped me to find another room and refunded the extra cost. Very friendly and sincere. I'm satisfied with the staff service.

Disappointing in many ways.
Wasn't that best (and I'm really not a fussy guest having stayed in some interesting places). Stayed in a 'VIP room' but felt like anything but a VIP. No sink in the ensuite and no towel (asked for one but none available) which were not major. Big issue was it smelt really damp and had a mouldy ceiling. There was a locked shower cubicle in the room that was the source of the bad, bad smells. Imagine sleeping in the boys changing rooms at school and you will get the vibe. Also directly underneath the bar so couldn't sleep untill 3am on Friday night (bearable but not ideal). Asked to move the first day but no other rooms available. When we arrived another guest was sleeping in our room. He got kicked out for us and the bed was changed. If you are reading this kind sir, we are sorry, but I think on balance we did you a favour. All felt strangely disorganised given that Rwanda is such a beautiful and orderly place. Breakfast... Coffee (simple thing in the land of coffee) was so bad (if you are a guest house or hostel proprietor, kindly consider that a good cup of coffee makes up for all measure of issues with your establishment). No drinking water available. One positive - the central location is really good.

Freundlich und praktisches Hostel
Gut gelegenes Hostel mit freundlichem Team, aber etwas chaotisch. Zimmer teils schlicht, Gemeinschaftsbereich nett, guter Treffpunkt für Traveller. Frühstück inklusive ist simpel. Flughafenabholung hat bei mir gut geklappt, habe aber auch anderes gehört. Empfehlung: Buchung und ggf. Transfer zwei Tage vor Ankunft per Email bestätigen lassen.

比較的安いバックパッカーたちの宿
比較的安く泊まるには申し分のないものの、坂の上にあり、立地がいいとは言いにくい。さらに、Wi-Fiがあるが、とても遅い。だけど、スタッフの対応はとてもよいので、コストを低く抑えたいときには、おすすめします

Decent hostel.
Only complaint about this hostel is lack of hot water. Besides that the wifi is perfect, restraunt and bar are very nice, comfortable rooms, good location, and as clean as you would expect a hostel to be. It's not super cheep but it's worth it.

Contact the property before arriving. Crucial!
I arrived late. The guy on duty could not find my booking. This happens A LOT WITH HOTELS.COM. Beware!! Them them it's Expedia and often it shows up. Next he says there are no rooms left..which is weird given you have a confirmed booking! So he says I have to go to their other place, about 8km away. AND PAY FOR THE TAXI!! 45 mins later when the taxi arrives we get to the second place. Only the guard is there. There is no desk to check in. The property is completely unmarked. In the morning all the other guests reported the same story. So if you've booked at Discover Rwanda I suggest you call in advance to (1) confirm your booking and (2) ask which property you are staying at Hotels.com.. You need to update this information as well!

Disorganised place. Rooms were run down and uncared for. Staff were polite and friendly but not effective or bothered about custom. Felt like it was coasting as there are a lack of other options here. Overpriced for standard of accommodation.

Nice Hostel except for a few details
The hostel was an affordable choice for my pocket. I found the staff quite helpful with requests I made. For a hostel it scored pretty well. However it would be nice to have firmer beds that do not creak when you turn at night. Otherwise I would stay here again.

Für eine Nacht ok
Für eine Nacht ist das zentral gelegene Hostel ok! Nette Mitarbeiter, gutes, einfaches Frühstück! Katastrophales Etagenbett, dass extrem wackelte und bei jeder Bewegung schaukelte, daher sehr schlecht geschlafen. Um 6h gingen die Arbeiten vor dem Hostel und im Garten los. Lautes Steineklopfen etc., sodass Nacht eh vorbei.

Very good value for money.
The hostel is very good value for money. It is in a peaceful location with lovely views but a short moto ( local motor cycle transport ) ride from downtown. The staff were friendly and helpful, the food inexpensive and OK. Nice breakfasts. I did have a problem with the water on my first stay but subsequent visits were fine. Getting hot water in budget accommodation in Rwanda is often a bit of a problem anyway. Avoid the Chinese restaurant next door like the plague! The food is inedible.

Great hostel in a great city
Brilliant hostel with nice bar/restaurant/lounge areas. Good wifi!! Rooms and showers are clean, good pressure and hot water. There's a small area for camping as well. Nice breakfast included. Staff are super friendly and helpful. It's opposite a bank (open until 8pm) which is handy and a good supermarket just down the street. A bit of a distance from the city centre, but you can get a mototaxi for Rwf500.

Everything that could go wrong, went wrong
We stayed at this hostel only for about 8 hours and during our stay pretty much everything that could go wrong, went wrong: 1. They did not come to pick us up from the airport (we had confirmed this 1 day before we arrived). 2. They did not have our booking (finally it turned out that they had put the wrong dates to their system). 3. They asked us to pay for our room again (we had paid online already and we had to explain this to the staff). 4. They could not rent us a towel (we asked three times and finally on the third time, this was in the morning, they said that we will not get it). 5. They did not lock our room after cleaning it (we had all our stuff in the room including money and passports). 6. We never got our change (we bought a bottle of water). They came up with all kinds of explanations why they can't give us our change so finally we left without the change.

Get a manager and do some maintenance
Staff was not trained because there was never a manager on site. I asked to speak to a manager several times. I asked for the owners email too. I never got either. The staff did not know any of the questions I asked. They would just give you a wrong answer. Downstairs showers were in need of maintenance. My stay was full o problems. If you require water electricity hot showers and food served on time find another hostel

A great home base for exploring kigali
We had a wonderful experience! The room was clean and spacious (we splurged for the double ensuite and it had a great private balcony!) We didn't spend so much time in the guest house itself, but between activities we always came back for a nice coffee. Nice, location, easy logistics. The nearby Mezze Fresh was a daily go-to for my very hungry boyfriend. AND-The wifi actually works!

The staff is very friendly and helpful. Many of them call me by name. The common areas are clan and welcoming. Friendly travelers come here. It is located close to the center of town.
