هوستل ساندس إن

Great hostel with a good location. Many amenities and a large kitchen. Close to the metro station and a Lulu Hypermarket where you can find a large variety of ready-made food at an affordable price. Clean rooms and many common areas as well as a roof. A good joice for Riyadh. Cons Although cleaning is done daily, the bathroom trashcan is constantly overflowing with dirty tissue. Apart from that, good cleaning service

I’ve stayed in the girls dorm for 3 nights. The assigned me an upper bed because the lower beds were occupied. As I arrived late, they stored a key for me at the reception. When I wanted to get it there was no key for my specific room and locker. I also couldn’t reach someone via WhatsApp. I then went for shopping and when I came back I met a guy who works there. He was so nice and helped me to get a key with a spare locker. Thanks to him I could unpack my stuff and lock my valuables. In the room were three other girls. Two of them seem to live there for weeks. Not sure why they live there instead of an apartment … The room was nice, but could be cleaner. Especially the bathroom inside the room could be more cleaner. I also prefer bigger bathrooms where more people can get ready. The location of the hostel is close to the new metro and needs about 15 minutes by foot. A big supermarket (LuLu Hypermarket) is on the same way.
