Having someone cook for you changes the rhythm of student life, and that is the standout at this PECHS hostel on Tariq Road. An on-site cook handles the kitchen, so co-ed residents can skip the daily question of what and where to eat. The rest of the setup is solid too: Wi-Fi, beds and mattresses, geysers for hot water, filtered drinking water, and an iron and board for keeping shirts crisp. Spread across the first and second floors of a building in Block 2, the property puts you right on one of Karachi's busiest shopping strips. MAJU is the nearest campus at about 1.6 kilometres, roughly a twenty-minute walk, with Preston Karachi and Bahria Karachi further afield. Rent sits between 31,250 and 45,000 PKR per month. The Tariq Road location means daily conveniences are all around: a UBL branch is close for banking, Madina Masjid is a short walk, and United Foods is right nearby when you want to eat out for a change. It is a hostel that takes the two biggest hassles of independent living, food and errands, and puts them within arm's reach, which is exactly what a lot of students are after.
