My time at the hostel chill house was one I'll always remember. I had the freedom and support to create lots of artwork, enjoy the Nile, a well equipped kitchen to cook my own food, lots of recommendations of where to go and what to eat. Nia and Kiro both have a very kind and welcoming nature and great sense of humour. Expect to relax, breathe in the calm, and contribute something meaningful to a place very meaningful aswell, both Aswan and the hostel♥️ thanks for the home away from home

My time in Aswan was truly beautiful. Nia and Kiro are amazing human beings and I am grateful that I got to meet them. They were very kind to me as a volunteer and they were always available to help any guests. Regarding my tasks, everything was like they say and they were always checking if I was okay with certain tasks/schedules which shows how caring they are. the hostel is located near the Nile which was one of the most beautiful views from my trip to Egypt. Highly recommend this experience.

My experience with Nia and Kiro was amazing. From the beginning, communication was always clear and kind. We agreed on schedules and they always asked how I was feeling and if everything was okay. I didn’t do much furniture building, but I helped more with organizing and concrete work, and I was happy with that. They invited me to dinner, which I really appreciated, and the boat tour was excellent. I truly felt like part of a family. The place is relaxed, you can talk with guests, swim in the river, meet locals. I recommend this place to escape the chaos of big cities. Thank you from my heart.

I'm grateful I got to contribute to this amazing place and spend time there. The work hours are just and the location in the middle of a true Nubian village and next to the Nile is perfect for an authentic experience in Aswan. Wish you all the best!

I went to Imbonita House, and it was an absolutely amazing experience. I had the time of my life there. Everyone is so kind and friendly—I really recommend going. They have a hostel right in front of the Nile River, and the place is incredibly clean and beautiful. We painted a mural together, we hung out, we talked, and I honestly feel like we became friends. They gave me great recommendations about the city and everything I needed. The atmosphere there is just so warm and beautiful. Thank you so much, the hostel. And thank you, Dr. Andre, for everything. I love you all.
