The breakfast was amazing! We tried their traditional Swahili dinner as well, which was equally good. The staff were very hospitable. We liked it so much that we extended our stay at Villa Rosa. The owner Rose herself came and spoke to us personally during our stay. The day beds are just the perfect place to unwind and relax after a long day of adventure.

The hostel was lovely and clean with spotless white sheets, duvets (which are washed between guests) and very spacious single beds. It's the perfect place to set up a base camp to explore Moshi with restaurant and laundry services on site. To make our stay even better, the owner G and all the other staff were incredibly helpful as G gave us all the options to visit Materuni and Chemka via tuk tuk, private hire and public transport with prices and organized a guide for us to take with us via public transport and lead our hike. He also set us up with a trusted tuk tuk driver to take us to the hot springs so we could swim in peace while he watched our bags so we could continue straight on to Arusha without stress over thieves with our check in luggage. Overall they went above and beyond to make our stay low cost, relaxing and all together pleasant. Would absolutely come back again and would highly highly recommend.

This place is magical Cosmas and his family are wonderfully wonderful and kind-hearted people . A beautiful friendship was born that is why I decided to return a second face after the Safari , Cosmas is a Wikipedia know it all , he is from a tribe in that area and it was interesting to be with him around because he showed me so many things . This accommodation is home and family , if you are looking for that I recommend you go to them .

The place was really nice and a good homely vibe. The host Wilema was amazing and super helpful. She helped us out with whatever we wanted and made sure we had a great stay. The rooms were clean and quite comfortable.

Very nice stay here. We loved their building project and had a really good time in the common areas. John is always there to help with anything you need and his breakfasts are terrific. We met awesome people in here and had peaceful and joyful moments together. Not far away from downtonw but far from busy streets so it's the perfect spot. You'll love it! Thank you for everything guys! Keep up that hard work you're doing :)

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

The breakfast was amazing. Cosmas cooked for us each morning and he was an amazing host. I would definitely recommend staying here. Cosmas is very accommodating and can help you with anything you need. He looked after our bags while we climbed kili. We wish we could have stayed longer here ! He is one of the best hostel hosts out there !

Breakfast was great, lots of different options. Wilema always made sure the hostel was clean, worked around the clock, organized and also sprayed every night for mosquitos. It was in great location for going to Materuni to see the waterfall. There was hot shower water. Opportunity for volunteering, very nice front yard and house.

I had an amazing time at Backyard Hostel Moshi. Extremely kind local staff that will help you out anytime and give you valuable tips. Delicious local foods for breakfast and for dinner. Very welcoming atmosphere and common area in the beautiful garden. I felt comfortable and safe in my room as a solo traveler. I really enjoyed the good vibes and local authentic feeling and am very grateful for my time there. Also the options for trips around Moshi to Kili, Hot springs, waterfalls etc. are amazing.
