The rooms at The Base Backpackers are cozy and comfortable, making me feel right at home. I loved the convenience of having a kettle in the room, perfect for my daily cup of tea. The microwave and electric kettle in the double room made it even more convenient for me to prepare simple meals. It was like having my own mini kitchen!
Personally, I didn't enjoy the shared bathroom setup. But hey, that's just me.

I had a great stay at Base Backpackers for my visa issues and quick stopover. The staff was incredibly kind, waiting for my late arrival and helping me with transportation. The room was comfortable, with AC, and the terrace offered a lovely sea view. The guard was helpful and checked me in smoothly, even with my late arrival. The hot water and clean beddings were much appreciated. The facility was clean and not crowded, and other travelers were friendly. The reception spoke English and assisted with restaurant bookings and taxis. The kitchen had a wonderful fridge and gas stove.
Would be happy to recommend this hotel.

Amazing location, just a short walk from a vibrant avenue with plenty of dining options, shops, and ATMs. The hostel was very clean and in a safe area. The staff was incredibly helpful and provided a security briefing for the city. The facilities were impressive for a hostel, with comfortable beds and a well-equipped kitchen. Despite a minor issue with lockers, the overall experience was great. I would recommend Base Backpackers for its convenience, cleanliness, and helpful staff. I had a positive stay and would recommend this hostel.

Great staff and friendly atmosphere. the staff was extremely helpful and always ready to assist. the hostel has a nice and clean environment, making it a comfortable place to stay. the location is also convenient, with easy access to shops, restaurants, and cultural attractions. Plus, the 24-hour service provided added convenience.
Limited hot water in the showers and cleanliness could be improved. the showers took some time to warm up, and it was a bit challenging to close them properly.

I had a fantastic time staying at this backpackers in the heart of the city. The simple yet well-done decorations and amenities added a nice touch to the atmosphere. Plus, it's within walking distance of all the major sights in Maputo, making it the perfect home base for exploring the area. The private room I stayed in offered great value, although it's worth noting that it didn't have a private bathroom. I would highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a central and budget-friendly accommodation option in Maputo.
Tourists from South Africa often stay at these properties. Ideas for your future trips.
