EVERYTHING was awesome! The staff, however, were truly exceptional. Thadey, the manager, went more than the extra mile to ensure that my stay was comfortable and memorable. Ghynwine, the owner, also checked in regularly to ensure all was good. Stanley persevered in teaching me some Swahili. And so I can continue to speak only good things of everyone. (Thanks guys, I miss you stacks.) My private room had all the amenities I could wish for - aircon was a life saver. There is no need to book tours in advance, as the hostel helped arrange everything I wanted to do (safari, coffee plantation, hot springs, etc.), as well as a super reliable airport shuttle via Mo Taxi Service picking me up from JRO airport at an ungodly hour (ask for Prince). Do try all the local delicacies (chipsi mayai, pilau, etc.) offered on the hostel menu, at super reasonable prices. The hostel is in Soweto suburb and about a 40 min walk from Moshi centre, but it's super easy to get a motorbike taxi or tuk-tuk into town (1400-2000 Tz shilling). Also, be sure to ask Thadey for advice in getting a local phone SIM, as some agencies in town may rip you off! A SIM plus data, straight from Vodafone, should not cost more than 21,000 shilling (Apr '25). I can whole-heartedly recommend this hostel, you don't need to look further for a place to stay in Moshi

Staying at Janibichi Hostel was truly an amazing experience. From the moment I arrived, I felt like I was at home. Cosmas and the whole team are incredibly welcoming, friendly, and always makes sure that every guest feels comfortable and cared for. Cosmas has such a pure and kind heart, and his energy really sets the tone for the whole place. The hostel itself has a great vibe—clean, cozy, and full of warmth. The breakfast was a real highlight: big, delicious, and prepared with love. Cosmas also shares wonderful stories and gives great advice about the area, which makes the experience even richer. I couldn’t recommend this place enough—it’s not just a hostel, it’s a home away from home. I've found new friends in that place and will forever stay in my heart. I'll be back !

I chose the place based on ease of access to the venue for the Kili Marathon. It worked perfectly as one could run to the stadium. The breakfast spread is generous and has variety. The proprietor Welly is an excellent host. She goes over and above to be of help to clients. Highly recommended.

Superb hostel . Very clean. Good breakfast. They pick me up from bus stop and take me to money exchange place. The ladies at hostel even help my brother do the laundry. They are so nice and helpful. Our flight is very early in the morning. They get up early and prepare breakfast for us around 4AM. This is definitely the best hostel I’ve ever been.

Karim and his team are simply the best! They made everything possible for us, whether flexible check-in and out times, spontaneous excursions or food requests. The accommodation is also super located and there is love in every detail of the facility. We enjoyed every minute of our stay there and can definitely recommend. We look forward to coming back sometime!
