You get what you pay for. Bathroom facilities could be greatly improved. Staff are rude, obnoxious and not pleasant. Great location through, and you get a lot for breakfast.

Hostel WakaWaka is a characteristic hostel with artistic interior design. The room and toilets are quite clean. But the staff are very unfriendly. They always make joke and say some bad wordings, which are quite insulting. And we nearly waited for half hour to get back our change!

The stay in the hostel was great. It's good located in the very center of marrakesh, the facilities are beutiful and the people are very kind. The included breakfast was incredible tasty and so much... and we could order a typical marrokien tea for free all the time. A nice service. A hostel that I can recommend to stay.

This place is cheap and central but not very comfy and very noisy at night.

Great atmosphere. There is a huge chillout lounge and the staff helps you as best as they can. We stayed there for quiet a while and would def come back. Perfect to meet other travellers

It's great hostel! Has a great atmosphere, when you arrive at the hostel soon you'll know most people staying there. Thanks to guys that are running this place, your cup of tea will never be empty:) A lot of positive energy in the place. I definitely recommend Waka waka!

Strange environment, beds in public areas. BED BUGS!! Many girls woke up with them. I am afraid of all the things I´ve brought home, hopefully dídn´t get them on anything. Also the staff spoke little English - a very Kumbaya environment. They wanted us to relax and wait awhile and drink tea while they prepared our room after arrival, we were already arriving several hours late due to a train delay, and didn´t want to sit around and wait, but we had to wait more.

No lockers but folks were honorable enough. Took me awhile to find the place because I turned left at the wrong pharmacy. Good deal for the money.

The staff make this place an awesome stay. Very chilled out atmosphere and social lounge. Easy to meet other travellers. The pillows could be a little softer...

I stayed at Waca-Waca April24-26 and LOVED IT. It has so much character and the people are amazing! I felt very safe and like I was at home! The beds were really uncomfortable for me-but hey, that's life. If you are lost on how to get there I just googled "How do I get to Hostel Waca Waca" and I think I used the first or second link that came up, the directions are spot on! I had a great time and we were referred to go on a 2-day 1-night stay in the Atlas mountains/Sahara on camel. So wicked!

I had my power adapter stolen while away on a desert excursion and staff did little to nothing to not only help me look for it initially but also to address theft as an issue. Other than that the stay was great but make sure you keep your valuables hidden because there are no lockers.

People and things in Marrakech just come to you and surprise you in a way never thought possible. So amazingly positive! All guys there - awesome. Rachid - no words to descirbe his enthusiasm for making people feel good. He also took care of anything like taxi at 5 in the morning directly in front of the door. Couldn't be more happy to stay with you for the last day of my morocco surf trip. Best regards, Nusa, Slovenia.
