Zeb Hostel earns its place through value. In Tehkal, this co-ed hostel asks PKR 15,000 to PKR 22,500 a month, sitting at the gentler end of the local range while still covering the basics properly. Mercy Teaching Hospital and Harshay Superstore are almost next door, the Shaheen Camp football ground is a short stroll for anyone who wants to unwind, and Tehkal's jumma masjid is close at hand. The trade-off is distance from campus: ICP is about 4.4 km out, the University of Peshawar close to 5 km, and Sarhad University a touch beyond that, so residents should plan on a daily commute rather than a walk to lectures. What you get in return is a well-equipped base — beds, mattresses and study tables supplied, filtered drinking water always available, and UPS backup to ride out the load-shedding that so often lands mid-assignment. Wi-Fi runs throughout for classes and coursework. For students watching their budget who don't mind travelling in to university, it's a dependable, no-frills home in a lively part of the city.
