Basic but clean with a nice bar

Slight problem with check out, as I was asked to pay the hostel when I had already paid online and had to prove this. It took a long time to rectify but was fine in the end. Just be careful not to pay twice if you pay online! Accommodation was simple but clean and comfortable. Perfect for a couple nights and lots of activities to be involved in if that's your thing.

Good base for Soca Valley

Convenient and cosy stay in heart of Bovec. Competitively priced. Friendly hosts. Only downsides were low ceilings:have to be careful to not hit your head if in top bunk; and paucity of charging points in dorms.

Todo correcto

Solo pasamos allí una noche de camino a otro lugar, pero la estancia fue cómoda. La habitación era bastante pequeña y la cama no especialmente cómoda, pero supongo que tratándose de un hostel y para una estancia corta es una buena opción. Los baños compartidos se veían limpios.

Nice hostel, offers good help with activities in and around Bovec. Rooms and bathrooms are clean and there’s a nice common area/bar downstairs and a kitchen offering all necessary amenities. Bovec center with all restaurants and bars is a short walk (around 5 minutes) from the hostel. Rooms can get very hot during summer. Also the curtains did not cover our full window, the light in our room woke us up relatively early. Our room was located on the bar/street side, it can get quite loud on weekend days, but it didn’t bother us too much. The refrigerator in the kitchen could use some cleaning, as it was a bit smelly.

Hervorragende Lage, Einkaufsmöglichkeiten in der Nähe, gut ausgerüstete Gemeinschaftsküche, über das Hostel Vergünstigungen bei Aktivitäten (sogar günstiger als online Buchungen) und 10% bei ausgewählten Restaurants, nettes Personal (wir durften sogar kostenlos im Inland mit ihrem Telefon telefonieren), viele junge Menschen als Gäste dementsprechend eine gewisse Lautstärke zu erwarten, großer kostenloser Parkplatz.

Agradable

El Hostel no es malo. Hay que estar atento a las duchas, por qué hay pocas y las dos que use, no teniannel gancho para la ducha, así que era incómodo bañarse, lo que genera más retrasó. La habitación padece de varias cosas. No hay mucho espacio disponible, el "locker" es como un baúl debajo de la cama, nadaou práctico. No hay suficientes tomacorrientes, y eso sí es terrible. Al menos uno por cama es la norma, más aún considerando que la mayoría de huéspedes lleva más de un dispositivo. Tampoco hay luces individuales. Debería tener mallas Anti insectos en la ventana Yo tuve una mala experiencia con una de las chicas de recepción, pero solo con ella. El resto del personal si fue amable. Las áreas comunes se cierran temprano. No hay aire acondicionado en la habitación, así que en verano puede ser un poco difícil sobrellevar el clima.

Hostel with everything you need

Big and comfy shared area. The kitchen is big with a lot of ustensils. This is a big hostel but there is enough bathroom for everybody. The only downsize was the size of the 6 bed dorm. It is a bit small if the room is full.
