The tours arranged by the inn are much cheaper than Klook. The female dormitory has space to open luggage. Not far from the Nizwa bus station.

The tours arranged by the inn are much cheaper than Klook. The female dormitory has space to open luggage. Not far from the Nizwa bus station.

The bathroom does not have dry and wet separation, often lacks toilet paper, and there is usually a queue. Some people shower and the whole place is wet. Although it is required to take off shoes and wear indoor shoes, the indoor shoes are disposable slippers left by previous guests (very gross). Please be sure to bring your own slippers. I see others wearing outdoor slippers stepping on the indoor carpet and bathroom floor, which is actually very dirty from everyone stepping around. Do not wear socks to help others clean the floor. The kitchen is sticky and not well maintained. I don't know if the female dormitory has been cleaned after the previous guest, as there are bottles and jars in the bathroom, some items in the cabinets, and the place to hang clothes is filled with towels, bikinis, and thick coats without any changes.
