Compass Hostel

"Beds are big considering they are dorm beds, each bed has a personal fan, safe, electrical outlets, and a curtain that wraps around the bunk. There is air conditioning in the room and they provide you with a large towel!"

"Not any hooks to hang up towel or wet swimsuit which would make a huge difference, and there was no soap provided in the bathroom."

"This is a very bougie hostel with great design. The interior is lovely and boutiquey and very easy on the eye. I loved the double bed design - every detail very well thought out. Piping hot water and ice cold a.c. Carabina was very kind and helpful ."

"No kitchen, some power cuts and no breakfast included"

"Every thing! This has been the most luxurious hostel I've stayed at in Zanzibar. Clean bathroom, hot shower, large dorm beds, AC, safe box, lovely common area, beautiful garden, friendly people, on top of that the price. The value for money is crazy!!"

"can not think of a single thing I didnt like!! Book this place now!!!!"

"Great location, helpful staff and the biggest beds I have ever seen in a dorm room. The air con works great and the rooms are super comfortable for plenty of privacy"

"Nothing"

"Great place to stay just a couple of minutes walk away from the beach and many restaurants. Comfy beds with privacy curtains. All beds have a safe to store your valuables, anyways there is 24h staff within the entrance so you feel safe. I was happy with the breakfast. Very lovely staff. Cute cat and kittens :) Great place to meet other travelers. Internet is okay."

"Not a big issue, just some daily power cutage in the afternoon."

"The beds are very wide and extremely comfortable. There are the curtains around each bed that provide extra privacy. The hostel is very clean, and the interior design is tasteful and cozy. The staff were friendly, kind and always ready to help. Another big advantage is that the hostel has its own generator, so even when there are frequent power outages, it doesn’t affect the stay."

"It would be very helpful to have at least a few hooks available in the room"

"I love how big the beds are, the bed curtains, the AC in the room, the kind staff, the location being close to the beach. Ahhh I loveee this hostel I wish I stayed longer <33"

"Nothing. Maybe the electric being off sometimes but it happens everywhere soo"

"Nice location, affordable,Clean environment, good security and good customer care"

"There is nothing that i didn’t like"

"The nicest hostel I have had in a long time, but still very affordable. Super modern and beautiful facilities. Close to the beach, and a very affordable (but wirh awesome food) beach restaurant called Blue Sea close by. Beds are comfortable and wide, and each bed has its own little professionel safe. Very friendly staff. All in all - fantastic. This hostel is a good base to start snorkeling for corals and enjoy a calmer environment than you'd find e.g. in Stone Town."

"Multiple times, electricity was only provided by a diesel aggregator. These times, the ac does not work as the diesel aggregator is not strong enough to power the ac's. However, the fan over your bed still works. And: This is NOT the hostel's fault - they cannot do anything for the unstable public electricity infrastructure at Zansibar. And at least they do have the diesel aggregator."

"I loved everything about my stay! The staff was so friendly and kind, the hostel was super clean and the doors had codes to enter, so it was super safe. The room was so comfortable with spacious beds, AC, bed curtains and lockers. I will come back for sure! :)"
