The location is very central just in front of the tram station, good stuff and amazing rooftop bar with good waiters who speak english very well, friendly and helpful. Rent bikes and a fully equipped kitchen where you can cook whatever you want. Highly recommend it.
BulgariaI liked getting a free welcome drink on arrival and having the restaurant and bar attached after a long flight was perfect so I didn’t need to go searching for food and drink exhausted in a new city.
CanadaIt is very well located, within walking distance from most (if not all) the attractions. The staff is amazing, super helpful. The room was very spacious and comfortable. Breakfast was fine, they had a small selection of fruits, cereals, cheese, etc. I was happy to find soy milk (I'm lactose intolerant and it hasn't been easy finding any other milk than regular milk).
ParaguayThe staff and facilities were amazing. loved the terrace and pool area. great location close to all the main attractions
United States of Americathe location couldn’t be better. so close to shops, restaurants, and city landmarks. the price is very good for the location, you won’t find something as nice and as cheap near. the place was very clean, and comfortable, however if you can’t take stairs, this isn’t the place for you. they give you towels with no charge, that’s is nice. you can also leave you luggage free of charge, very handy. the tram to the bus station is in front and is very well connected with other places of interest. I’ll definitely stay here next time for sure.
ColombiaGreat location, super friendly staff and comfortable beds.
United States of Americaamazing facilities including a pool, kitchen, bar, and restaurants I would defines come back
United States of AmericaThe hostel is in a great location - Zagreb itself is pretty walkable as a city but coming from the bus station with a big back pack, I was delighted to discover the tram dropped me off RIGHT outside the hostel entrance. The hostel definitely has a party vibe - offered a shot upon arrival and told about a bar crawl, however I did not take part due to time but heard great things from others. My room was quiet and cosy. Great sized lockers and a good privacy curtain.
United KingdomPlace is like a nightclub with dorm beds added. Has a large bar, attached very popular Asian restaurant, pool, and well equipped kitchen. Dorm beds were comfortable and bathroom in the room. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Zagreb has excellent tram system with stop nearby.
United States of AmericaFriendly staff and well-thought out design of the room. Everything worked as it should. Thumbs up!
