The atmosphere was lively and fun, with a great social vibe and friendly staff. The location was central and convenient for exploring the city. The private room was a great value for the price and was comfortable and clean. The bar area was a nice place to relax in the evenings.
Absolutely nothing.

The breakfasts were good and reasonably priced. The staff in the kitchen were very accommodating and friendly. The location of the hotel was convenient, with easy access to transportation and nearby attractions.
The shared showers often ran out of hot water, which was frustrating. Some of the pillows on the double bed were stained, which was not very hygienic.

The location of the hotel was convenient, with a nearby shopping mall and easy access to the city center. the staff were friendly and accommodating, making the stay more enjoyable. the entertainment area with a pool, bar, and pool table provided a fun and relaxing atmosphere.
The rooms were not adequately cleaned, with cat hair and fleas found in the bed. the intermittent power outages were inconvenient, especially when the fan couldn't work.

The location of the hotel was great, situated in a safe neighborhood and close to popular attractions and amenities. It was easy to walk around and explore the area. the bar at the hotel was a nice place to relax and socialize with other guests. The atmosphere was lively and the staff was friendly, creating a welcoming environment.
One of the main issues I had during my stay was the lack of cleanliness in the rooms and bathrooms. The facilities were run down and in need of renovation.

The room I stayed in at Lusaka Backpackers was amazing! It had a washing machine, tumble dryer, and even a fireplace. It felt so cozy and homely, making me feel relaxed and comfortable during my stay.
Personally, I wasn't a fan of the shared bathrooms. But hey, that's just my preference, and I understand that others might not mind it at all.

I chose this hotel for attending a vendor expo because it provides M&G service during office hours, which was very convenient for my business trip. The facilities were well-maintained and the staff was friendly and helpful.
The only service that I missed for my work was a reliable and fast internet connection. This made it a bit challenging to stay connected and get work done efficiently.

I had a really pleasant stay at this hostel. The bar area was a great place to relax and meet other travelers. The staff, especially Nick, were extremely friendly and made me feel welcome. The comfortable bed ensured a good night's sleep, and I loved that there was a taxi rank right outside the property for easy transportation. The location was also convenient, with the bus station nearby and a shopping center within walking distance. Although there were a few drawbacks mentioned in the reviews, overall I would recommend this hostel for its friendly atmosphere and comfortable accommodations.
