Perfect location. The rooms are kept clean. The building is quite large with an array of different rooms. I prefer the second floor. Affordable for a capital. The pressure of the water for the showers is awesome, particularly after the end of long trip. I would definitely come back.
This post is explicitly only regarding the „shuttle service“ that Fatima’s offers between their hostels in Maputo and Tofo. We did not stay at the hostels itself, so we can’t say anything about the accommodation.
The distance from tofo to Maputo is 500km and normally should take around 7,5h. Obviously this is Africa and everything can take little longer. But what we experienced was really not what Fatima’s promised us. We had read a couple of reports from previous travelers stating that this is a public bus and not a private shuttle. So we explicitly asked the Boss at Fatima’s in Tofo if this were the case. He promised us that it is a private shuttle, extra for Fatima’s hostel guests and of course it is not a public bus —> plot twist: it was a public bus ;) so we took in total 12,5 hours, stopping every 100m to get more people on the bus (30+ people in a bus with only 21 seats etc).
Everything ok, if we had not been charged SO much more than all the other guests on the bus! Overpriced! Don’t book at Fatima’s, just jump on the bus at any other place and pay the normal price. Would never do this again!!!!
To be avoided : horrible bedding, bed sheets with holes, stains and already used (we found 2 different types of hair in our sheets). The bathroom was dirty of several weeks. In short, deplorable hygiene. Bonus, my boyfriend got bitten by a tropical spider during the night and developed an infection. If only the prices were affordable, but it's not the case…
PS: do not take the bus to Tofo via this hostel. It's a scam: more expensive than the Etrego company, 5 hours more and zero comfort
All was great except being distance divided from our female group family members as the rooms were far (+- 3 meters distance). Oh another advise to travelers, is to expect a different power plug input of any electrical appliance in Maputo.
Well located , safe, friendly, helpful staff . Our room was clean and everything worked - fan , wifi, electrical points etc . Enjoyed a hot, powerful shower after a dusty day . A great base for exploring the fascinating, layered city of Maputo.
Probablement un des meilleurs choix backpackers sur Maputo, à prix modiques, bien situé, avec facilité de transport juste à l'entrée (taxi ou tuk-tuk à moteur). Il existe plusieurs lieux où se restaurer à proximité à prix abordables. et un espace cuisine si l'on tient à faire sa popote soi-même à l'intérieur. Pour ceux qui ne prisent pas les dortoirs, il y a une possibilité de dormir en chambre individuelle. Evidemment, c'est plus cher.
Fatima' s ubica puede parraitre a primera vista una belleza Backpackers.Pero ten cuidado este lugar está regentado por una mujer de negocios que solo quieran sabido aprovechar del rgent de los turistas que pasa aquí.La limpieza siempre que no desearse, los ducha no son nada propores.Las tarifas exagerar para las prestaciones propuesto.Lugares que hay que evitar
¡O melhor local Maputo!¡Como Acomodações São especiais para todos os gostos, o atendimento é diferenciado ea comida maravilhosa!!!¡Quem já foi, e já sabe quem ainda naos y foi, DEVE experimentar!¡O Tofo Nas mesmas tem como características e com o mar o local torna-se um verdadeiro paraíso!
Si no tienes prisa es una buena opción.
