  Comfortable little hostel minutes from the jema el fina square in the middle of the medina. It perfectly fits the description "bang for your buck", very cheap dorm beds in a well decorated, excellent location. If you're a solo traveller coming to Marrakech, this is the perfect spot. Just like any other place in morocco, can get surprisingly cold in the winter months, so ask for an extra blanket. Or buy a woven Berber blanket in the souk.

  As an amateur traveler who has been around quite the number of hostels in Europe so far, I can proudly say that this hostel in Morocco lives up to the expectations of young travelers out there. From the warm welcome you get, to the amazing decoration, Hassan and Zakaria make sure you are as comfortable as possible in the beautiful Red City. The hostel is also a few minutes away from the famous Jamaa El Fena place by foot. Zakaria and Hassan are the best hosts I've had so far, you can literally ask them anything, they'll gladly help you out. The cozy terrace upstairs is such a peaceful spot to sit at and enjoy a book or the company of your friends in. Rooms are clean and beds are comfy. Did I mention that Hassan and Zakaria are the best ? The main "living room" is such a nice place for socializing and making friends from all over the world, you just have to grab the cup of tea you're given, and just join whoever you want !! Spend one night here and you'll end up regretting not having booked a few more. They offer tours and excursions all over the region for very decent prices. Have fun at Waka Waka !
  
  P.S: Zakaria and Hassan, the best ! 👌

  Great staff hostel was fantastic. Thanks for a making Marrakesh tolerable.
  
  I would avoid the tours especially to the desert. Overpriced super tourist trap nothing was delivered as promised save the stars but you really can't see them that well with the lights from all the glampimg a d 4x4s and atvs ruining all night. The dinner I wouldn't have fed to my dog and there's no toilet in the desert. The staff from the your company is rude and constantly demanding money.

  This is the best desert experience with a tourism company I have ever had. From beginning to the end, the initial communication to the tour itself everything exceeded expectations. It was also great to support a local company. thank you marrakech tours

  Everyone comes to Marrakech looking for a ‘good price’ and Waka Waka cuts out the haggling for you. For the first time in Marrakech. If you are on a shoe-string budget, but want to stay in an old palace of a hostel, come and enjoy the regally calm but highly entertaining Waka Wakas.
  
  Turn your ideas into adventures in our large communal courtyard or garden roof terrace. Learn how to cook and banquet Moroccan style in our guest kitchen, and experience Waka Waka’s evening entertainment. If you find it is time to leave the hostel, you will find all the sparkly trinkets you need to cram into your backpack on our doorstep.
  
  Leave your guidebook at the bottom of your bag and experience Morocco Uncut. Chose your own adventure over tea and maybe a cheeky shisha pipe – we are from all corners of Morocco – the far flung Sahara, the mountains and Marrakech itself and are happy to provide guidance, advice, and lots of stories about the areas you may want to visit. Get off the beaten track.
  
  As Michael Palin once said ‘somewhere a long way away, people are doing sensible things like mowing lawns and digging gardens’. However, with not a spade in sight, you will be banqueting, singing, laughing and experiencing the incredible city of Marrakech in an old palace of a hostel that breathes new life into trave
