Liked: Cleanliness
Disliked: Staff & service
als Unterkunft für Gäste völlig (!) daneben. Man bekommt ein Zimmer mit Bett und (Plumbs)Klo - das ist soweit ja gut. Aber man müsste vorher die Gäste schon darüber infomieren, dass es nur Gemeinschaftsessen gibt. Bei uns gab es kein Essen - wir mussten die Leute bitten, dass sie uns was abgeben. Frühstück gab es gar nicht und überhaupt wurde uns nicht gesagt wie das alles da abläuft. Für einen "Selbstfindungsaufenthalt" sicherlich OK - definitiv NICHT geeignet um Gäste aufzunehmen.

A lovely place where to stay. Especially if it’s your first time in Africa, there is no place where you could get a better introduction about Africa than at SINA. The people are friendly & are keen to awnser every question. And I realized here there is no stupid question. Also you have the opportunities to join lots of different activities and to learn about a lot of new things. I can recommend it ! To go to a normal hostel it’s possible in every country, SINA though is unique.
