The hostel is within walking distance from the main hustle and bustle of zagreb. For the price this is amazing. The room was spacious enough and lockers were large. The key is provided. Staff are SUPER amazing. They go out of their way to help you, from finding the hostel location to helping you with their recommendations. The female shower room has enough showers and the maids were cleaning all the time. Surprised how clean it was kept considering the amount of people staying there during my stay.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    It was one of the best hostels I've ever stayed in. It's a clean hostel where you can stay safely. It's within walking distance of all the tourist attractions in the city center. The staff are very friendly and helpful. Iresha helped us with every problem, she's very patient and does her job very well. I've stayed in a hostel many times before. But I can say that this hostel is the best. Thank you very much.

    Great location, just few minutes walk to the old town and many attractions. A lot of good bars and restaurants around the hostel. The bunk bed is really good, it is normal stairs with hard surfaces under the mattress which feels very good.
