Best hostel! Just a couple of minutes away from Narodni Trida (metro) station, there are plenty of eateries around and a famous ice cream parlour - literally a few doors away. Despite being in a main road with the trams running, it was relatively quiet. Place was clean and spacious. They allowed me to check in early. 24/7 reception and the kitchen was generally open. Lounge with huge screen. A special thank to Stela on reception, who was exceptional and lovely. So helpful and knowledgeable. Will definitely stay here again.

I stayed in a dormitory. Shared toilet was clean.. kitchen was occupied with all essentials... They also provided the locker for luggage before I checked in! My only complaint is the noise. May be it is becausey room was on the road side, I couldn't sleep a single night... I can hear loud noises of the buses/cars passing by, people shouting!

Great location, nice place & people, 👍

The good: The staff were really helpful and friendly, the room was spacious with huge windows and the location was perfect. There were lots of period features such as the big wooden doors and windows. The lockers in the room were really big which was great too, and all the people I met there were great and I made many friends. Towels provided, and padlocks could be borrowed. Bedding was clean and comfy bed. The not so good: could be a bit cleaner, in some places it felt a bit unclean eg the radiator in the bathroom needed a good wipe down and some areas were a bit tired/old eh carpet in dormitory. Worth noting: hostel was listed as being accessible for disabled guests, however I would say it was semi-accessible. Eg the access to the lift requires entering a code on a box about 6'/184cm high on the wall, and the old historic doors not designed for wheelchair access and proved somewhat difficult for getting around within the hostel. Some rooms have bath not shower. Please take it into account if you have specific accessibility needs especially if traveling solo

Bathroom Not so private

when you try to book the hotel you are informed that the room is private. I sent an email confirming if it would be really private because my friends and I prefer to stay in a private room with a bathroom just for our use, despite the description of the room stating that it is private, from the photos I thought that maybe it wasn't then I sent an email asking and they informed that the bathroom was in front of the room but it would be for our use only. When I got there I saw that it wasn't like that. the attendant tried to make me believe that private means sharing with rooms on the same floor. after complaining and sending an email with prints of what they had told me before, 2 nights later, when the room that actually has a private bathroom became available, they switched us to another room. better pay attention if the room you are in has a bathroom or not, regardless of what you have in the booking information. the shared bathroom was dirty for 2 days and when they went to clean it I realized that the cleaning was done badly

정확한 정보를 원하는 분들한테 도움이 되었으면 합니다. 시내에 위치와 직원의 응대는 괜찮았지만 숙소는 권하지 않습니다. 여행의 시작이었는데 2일간의 넘 힘들었어요. 저희는 들어갈때부터 숙소에 있을때도 창문을 열어 놓았어요. 평가도 지역가이드들의 평가보다 여행자의 평가가 중요하다는 경험를 했내요.

Achei o hostel muito diferente das fotos. Meu quarto era super antigo, estava bastante quente e não tinha ar condicionado ou ventilação boa. Apenas um ventilador, não era o suficiente. Ficaria em um local um pouco mais caro, mas com uma estrutura melhor em uma próxima viagem. Se você está viajando Low bugdet acredito que te atenda.
