I had a decent stay at this hostel, which serves as a good budget option for backpackers. The location is convenient, close to everything I needed in Moshi. Although the rooms are small, they were clean, and the service was friendly. The rooftop area with Wi-Fi was a nice touch, but it was a bit disappointing that the bar was closed during my stay.

I had a pleasant stay at Kilimanjaro Backpackers. The location is perfect, right on the main street of Moshi, making it easy to access everything I needed. The rooms were small but clean, providing decent comfort for the price. The breakfast was simple yet satisfying, but I did encounter some noise in the mornings from a rooster. Overall, it's an excellent choice for budget travelers looking for good value.

I had a decent stay at Kilimanjaro Backpackers, which offers a clean and affordable option in the heart of Moshi. The rooms are quite small but manageable, and the value for the price is excellent at just $10 per night. However, the breakfast left a bit to be desired, and I felt that the service could be more knowledgeable about local attractions.

The Kilimanjaro Backpackers offers a decent stay with comfy beds, clean accommodations, and a very affordable price. However, the breakfast selection was somewhat lacking, and the service could have been more knowledgeable about local attractions. The location is great but could use some improvement in room sizes and breakfast variety.

I found this hotel to be a decent budget option right in the heart of Moshi. The rooms were generally clean, and the staff was helpful, especially when it came to arranging bus tickets. Breakfast was a little underwhelming, but the proximity to local street food made up for it. Overall, it's a solid choice for budget travelers, though there are some areas for improvement.
