"If you’re looking for a vibrant, budget-friendly stay that captures the spirit of Mumbai in the heart of Dubai, Bombay Backpacker DXB is a solid choice. However the pinned location is wrong. Don’t rely solely on the GPS; contact the hostel for the exact building name or a live location link before you head over so you don't get lost with your luggage. Great stay, but tricky to find!"
