I like the style of the place - modern but with authentic antique elements, a truly international and cheerful staff, the casual atmosphere and relaxed atmosphere, a very comfortable kitchen, a big fridge with a spacious freezer at the top of the fridge. This was my first stay in Abu Dhabi, the wizz air flight was late and i arrived in the middle of the night in A2 bus and then bus 40 from the airport. I was using Google map and everything coincided with the location given by BookingCom - which is not always the case for other countries. A very pleasant stay with very understanding people.

The staff were very nice, they offer pickup and drop off service no matter how early or late. Be sure contact them early about it . The bed is comfortable, and the whole house is super clean. Kitchen and bathroom has everything you need - shampoo conditioner and gel , even free coffees and teas are offered. The common area is nice too, big and well-decorated. I’m not a hostel person, but this is really the best hostel I stayed in.

Olaando Hostel is a good choice for budget travelers looking for affordable accommodation for a short stay. The bunk bed system creates a social setting, and I had the chance to meet travelers from all around the world. As an introvert, I really enjoyed stepping out of my comfort zone and connecting with new people. The hostel is clean, well-maintained, and provides a warm ambiance. A special mention to Omar, the owner—such a sweet and kind guy who makes everyone feel at home. Also, Jerome, the manager, is incredibly helpful. He guides guests on how to get around, making it much easier to explore the area. Both of them contribute to the warm and friendly atmosphere of the hostel. It's an excellent budget-friendly place with a great community, and I’d highly recommend it!

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.
