For COMSATS students, the walk is the selling point here: Abbott Boys Hostel sits about five minutes on foot from COMSATS Abbottabad, on Usmania Street in Jinnahabad, with Ayub Medical a further ten-minute walk if that's your campus instead. Rooms come furnished for study, each with beds, mattresses and study tables so you can settle into a semester without hauling furniture across the city. Meals are handled by an on-site mess and dining hall, which takes the daily worry of cooking off a student's plate, and UPS power backup keeps fans, lights and laptops going through the outages. Wi-Fi runs for coursework and filtered drinking water is provided. Jamia Masjid Tayyeba is barely a couple of minutes away, and Qureshi Plaza and the Mandian bazaar are close enough for everyday errands. Monthly rent ranges from PKR 7,000 to PKR 10,000, which is realistic for boarders sharing between the price points on offer. If you're a COMSATS student who wants a short walk to class, a mess you don't have to think about and reliable backup power, this Jinnahabad hostel covers the fundamentals of a workable term.
