Italythe location is perfect and the people very kind and helpful
Brazilvery nice hotel in bascarsija location. The rooms were clean and the employees were very concerned. The ladies at the reception answer your questions with interest. They even make your holiday affordable with the advice they give. The fact that the hotel is in the center is a really big advantage. I will definitely recommend it to my friends who are going to Bosnia. If I come to Bosnia again, I will stay here again. Also, my foreign language is not very good, but I felt their goodwill while communicating with them. thanks for everything.

FinlandExcellent staff. Everyone who works there was very attentive and went out of their way to make me feel at home. Whatever I needed during my stay, they went above and beyond to take care of me. They're fantastic!
