Hadi made sure I had all the information & tips I... More

We were welcomed to Equator even though we arrived at almost midnight. We were greeted, shown around then taken to our room on the third floor. Our room was comfortable and quiet, down an open sided corridor to the back of the building, almost en suit with the toilets and showers next door. The AC worked very well and the... More

The best thing about this place is the location. Opposite the back entrance of a massive shopping mall, where as well as great cheap shopping there was a cinema- a ticket was only £2! The Imbi Monorail station was only a 5 minute walk and because the hostel is in the Golden Triangle the main sites were all very close.... More

Less than 5 Mins walk from Imbi Monorail, just walk across the times square bullding ( keep a copy of map) and walk along the curved road along the hotels and you would notice the Hostel easily. With the TImes Square... More
