More than a hostel Hakaia is a travelers refuge. The moment you step over the threshold you'll feel at ease. So much so that I, like many of guests, ended up extending my stay multiple times.

It's a place where conversations flow and stories are shared amongst friends - Hakaia being the Arabic for story. The atmosphere is lively and social, whilst also being immensely peaceful and calm for those wanting solitude and rest. In short it's a sanctuary you won't want to leave.

This is a direct consequence of the wonderful staff all of whom are kind, passionate and genuinely committed to ensuring that guests have a great time. They do everything to help you whether it's giving advice of things to see, helping you with visa documentation or just sharing stories, games and pleasant conversation.

Additionally the included breakfast is tasty treat that will certainly set you up for the day.
