Something not right?

Description

Great and chilled hostel in Kumasi, owned by two Dutch young ladies.
Camping 8$ per person, dorms and rooms available (prices online). Breakfast (very good one!) included, free WiFi, dorm shower and toilet available for campers.

You can buy clothing made by local women who learn how to sow on the same premises since the owners run a women's empowerment NGO. Beautiful clothes for very good prices! Also option to get personal items made of your choice.

Definitely one of our favourite places in Ghana!
If you want to join for dinner add your name on the board. It costs 75 cedis for the meat option and 60 for the vegetarian one. Always fresh snacks available!

Highly recommended!!

Nice hostel to stay in. Like comments below explained, the place looks great, the breakfast is very good (be aware though if you're allergic, the chocolate Nutella kinda thingy has peanuts in it!! Learnt that the hard way 🫠), you can have dinner with veggie options every night provided you let them know beforehand, and they have women empowerment workshops where you can buy handmade and local products.
WiFi also works great, which is a big plus - at least it did the first few days, then the last few day not so much :/.

Another thing is, the prices seem to keep rising since it's been registered on the iOverlander app ^^. Now the dorm is 161 cedis (breakfast included). No mosquito net nor AC, but fans, no mosquitoes (the room is sprayed and thoroughly cleaned everyday), and plugs next to the beds. No locker to keep your stuff though, which is too bad.

Price now 100 per person for camping, 150 for hostel bed. Highly recommend this travelers hostel lunch menu is good around 50 for falafel burger, or wrap very fresh. Communal dinner 60 for veg option again fresh and healthy.

Good place to hang out, strong WiFi & they sell many textile products made on site. There was a tap around the back of the building they allowed me to fill some water tanks. it's easy to take a tuktuk around town from here

Hostel could easily belong in Latin America, Asia or Eastern Europe somewhere- a refreshingly high-quality paradise if you've been traveling rough in West Africa a while. The owners are Dutch and by the design and amenities of the hostel are clearly travelers themselves. Dorm 150 cedi including an amazing breakfast, laundry 60 cedi, family dinner 60 cedi (veg) and 75 cedi (non-veg), and lots of other stuff on the menu. Decent book exchange, games to play, and really friendly and knowledgeable staff. Wifi fast. Easy to meet others as hostel is small-ish and you end up talking to everybody with only a little effort.

Very nice place for rest and work with wifi.
We sleep on the car, the place for the car is not amazing but doesn’t mater because you can use all the différentes space of the hostel and the all are very nice for chilling.
I recommend this place.

A safe parking is part of the hostel area, so we felt very fine staying here with our truck, we just had to lift some low hanging cables when entering. It’s a really nice spot to relax for a few days. There’s laundry service ( one load is 40), free drinking water, Wi-Fi, very clean shower and toilet, restaurant serving good food. 70pp isn’t cheap for camping, but the breakfast comes with home made bread, fresh juice and real coffee.

Nice hostel if you have 12USD to spare for a dorm with no aircon.

camping is now 70cds pp including a very good breakfast (eggs'muffin, banana pancakes. homemade bread...). don't know if you can negociate the price without the breakfast.
the hostel itself is really cool, but if you sleep in the car you will stay on the parking lot with no shade, and not hidden from the road. suboptimal...
however the staff is very friendly and they make very good icecoffee!
if you need to exchange currency, ask the owner, she has a contact with good rates

Camping is possible with a tent but the Car has to stay in front of the office and we weren't hired from the street. No intimity at all. But the place is great. Food very good and only women working, friendly; clean, beautiful shop.

Suuuper lovely hostel which also “empowers” local women. Great accommodation, great food, so much useful information, lots of books, good opportunity to network with other travellers, they sell clothing and items made by local women, they hire local women... we were so excited to find this place.
