This place is amazing. It’s my favorite place to stay in zambia and in the region actually. The people are so incredibly friendly and kind, the facilities are clean, the place is safe, and has everything you could need. The 8 bed dorm is comfortable, has mosquito nets, there are enough showers with hot hot water and good pressure, there are lockers, laundry, self catering kitchen, and made to order kitchen if you don’t feel like cooking. The food is quite good here too and affordable. There’s tons of communal outdoor space to sit around or get work done, with plenty chargers and electrical outlets. The location is great as well. Down the road is fresh produce from a lady in a red stand, and less than a mile away is the main bus station and levy mall with multiple grocery stores and a pharmacy. The bar at backpackers is fun as well. It’s open air, has great energy, affordable drinks and snacks, and has pool table and pool right there. Overall this place is great and I would never want to stay anywhere else in Lusaka. Unless it’s booked up. Then I stay at wanderers, their sister property, which is equally nice although a bit more quiet and different location.
