Very nice and comfortable Hostel in the Heart of Sarajevo with a very friendly and helpful owner. I defiantly would love to come back after covid and wish you alle the best for the family, hostel and yourself. Thank you so much for hosting me that kind of warmly!
GermanyAmra is a great host. she was helpful to every need of me. Also, I even ask for a room change(because of a dim light) and she accepted it without any objection which she had right to do so. In one evening, we had a drinking party and hostel (or Amra) provided us with traditional Rakija and some chips for FREE. Beyond these things, hostel is on a perfect location. I mean really exquisite location.
TurkeyFriendly and very helpful staff members. Shout out to Sejla for her very kind help and recommendations on the places to eat and visit in Sarajevo. She's been patient with all guests queries and ever ready to assist with our needs. The hostel is also nearby to all the touristy spots which is a big plus!
