Had a great time here! We were able to see the city with Amit, we went to the desert, and he also provided incredible meals throughout our stay. The rooms were comfortable as well! We got to meet many locals and see the life through the lens of a local and I am very grateful for that part of our experience!

My experience with Amit was amazing. He is a great host, always concerned about our needs. I was able to spend a week in the desert helping the staff there, organizing and receiving guests, in the city, Amit made me feel free to leave my mark on the walls of the hostel. The whole team was wonderful. In addition, I was able to practice my English, and connect with both local people and other travelers. The service was easy and fun to do. During this period that I was with them, I was able to make 4 paintings, which was great to exercise creativity.

Dear Gabriel,

You made our walls (and us) shine. Grateful forever—return anytime!

Cheers,
Amit
