"It is in a nice and convenient part of town. They did not have good directions for getting into the property. Did not even explain that there was another bathroom to use with a shower which would have been nice considering the bathrooms were always occupied. Worth the stay, but could have been better. "

"If you’re looking for a vibrant, budget-friendly stay that captures the spirit of Mumbai in the heart of Dubai, Bombay Backpacker DXB is a solid choice. However the pinned location is wrong. Don’t rely solely on the GPS; contact the hostel for the exact building name or a live location link before you head over so you don't get lost with your luggage. Great stay, but tricky to find!"
