We stayed there for couple of days. It's a cozy place but a little far away from vic falls town. The beds are quite small. Are you over 180 cm the bed is way to small. Our double room was very small to. But the staff was great. Especially the night guy dude. If you are looking for a place outside the town this is the place

Alex (hostel owner) and Ryan (night manager) are too awesome guys, they are very friendly and helping you with every issue, customer satisfaction is very important for them. Will definitely stay there again if I am in Victoria Falls

Dear Bjoern, many thanks for your ratings and comments. We have noted the low rating on 'fun' and are addressing that issue (installing a sauna and improving the facilities in the games room amoung other plans). Hope to have you stay again. thanks again, Alex
