    As an archaeologist from London, staying at Rafiki Hostels in Dahab felt like a homecoming. The vibrant atmosphere, incredible staff, and daily activities transformed my trip. Notifications about local events on WhatsApp made integration easier despite the occasional wifi hiccup. Truly a memorable experience-I'll cherish these friendships!

    The rooms at Rafiki Hostels - Dahab are comfortable and cozy, with a lovely seating area where you can relax. The shared bathrooms are clean and the showers are great.

    Personally, I didn't care for the tile/marble floors in the double room. But hey, some people might love it!

    The atmosphere at the hostel was incredibly friendly and welcoming, creating a great experience for solo travelers. the staff treated guests like family and went above and beyond to ensure their comfort. the dorm rooms had spacious beds with curtains and night lights, providing privacy and convenience. the hostel had a well-equipped kitchen with utensils and basic cooking supplies, as well as complimentary tea and coffee. Guests were also treated to delicious Egyptian breakfasts. the rooftop offered stunning views.

    Some rooms faced the main road, which resulted in occasional noise disturbances.

    We had an amazing stay at Rafiki Hostels! The staff made us feel right at home and were helpful throughout our stay. They even organized a trek to Mount Sinai for us, well-organized and a highlight of our trip. The breakfast was delicious and the social atmosphere allowed us to meet new people, even though we were in a private room. The location was great, with a short walk to the sea and restaurants. Despite some minor drawbacks, like the breakfast not being available early and the slight inconvenience of walking to the supermarket, we had a fantastic experience. I highly recommend Rafiki Hostels for a nice stay in Dahab.

    The staff and volunteers were amazing, making me feel like part of a family. The hostel had great vibes and the beds were comfy. I'll miss everyone!

    The bathroom with the shower inside was a little strange, but at least it was clean.
