High-light of Abu-Dhabi. I was staying there for the second time, and this time for almost a week, and it was a great pleasure. Room was super spacious, and bathroom as well. Other guests are just gold. So many nice people, and nice memories too. The smoking area and the chill are are the best. 10 minutes walk to the beach (but mind that you're not allowed to swim after 18:00) A lot of cheap fast food places with Indian, Egyptian, Pakistani and Afgani cuisine Omar organised a nice play at the beach, with voleyball, Uno and nice music, thank you! Some nice chill cats around as well. When another guest suffered from sun-burn, she was given medicine and taken to a nice place to eat.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is 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 bit more.
