The hostel was nice and quiet during my stay. The owner is amazing and very kind. The whole hostel is shoe free, that way you don't have smelly shoes in the rooms and the floors stay cleaner! The footwear you use in the hostel is provided by the hostel.

Really great hostel! The facilities are excellent — quite clean, with comfortable beds. They also have a really nice lounge with good coffee, making it a perfect place for coworking! Above all, the staff is fantastic — Savannah was especially welcoming, polite, and kind. I really enjoyed my (albeit short) stay! I’ll definitely come again if I’m in Zagreb. Highly recommended! 🤙🏻🥳

I wish I could've stayed for longer but I did it as a last minute emergency. The hostel is very clean and cozy with tons of touristic information everywhere, the dorm was comfortable and quiet. It's also very close to the main bus station which is a huge plus.

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.
