Hostel

😠 We booked for three nights last month. We were unable to stay the first night due to a failure in my planning. We didn't show up until the next morning at 8am. No one was there before 2pm, the check-in time. The person at the front desk cancelled all the nights and told us that the hostel was full....

    We booked for three nights last month. We were unable to stay the first night due to a failure in my planning. We didn't show up until the next morning at 8am. No one was there before 2pm, the check-in time. The person at the front desk cancelled all the nights and told us that the hostel was full. So we found ourselves homeless for two nights, having to pay for other accommodation. I am still being withdrawn the amount for the three nights. I understand that the equivalent of the first night is taken away from me but the whole amount is unacceptable knowing that our planned rooms were given to someone else and therefore paid for by them. No one is giving me an answer by email... dreadful !!

    The only good thing about this hostel is the location. On the other hand, I didn't like it. For the service I got it was expensive. No bar or kitchen, no breakfast, no wifi. Nice bathrooms but 2 per floor are too few. I paid 5 euros for a washing machine. And my suitcases were attacked by ants. I don't recommend it, sorry

    Despite the recent flood in Slovenia and the hard situation, which force us to cancel our trip, Sleeping Beauty refused to make an arrangment and charged us completly for the nights we were supposed to spend in their place. Not a little help from them. So dissapointing and unfair !

    Would not recommend at all. No AC, wifi doesn't work well downstairs, and the beds/showers are abysmal. Do yourself a favor go nextdoor to Most Hostel for the same exact cost (which what i did for the other 2 nights of my trip)

    A hostel with great location and price. Clean white sheets, squiky iron bunk beds, shared toilets and showers. For one night not so bad. It would be great if there were more cleaning and maintenance done. Overall place with a good potential.

    Overall okay, the price could be a little cheaper though. The rooms are small but clean. The balcony was okay and it was not to hot in the room. Unfortunately one large blanket instead of two small ones. The location is very good. Lots of restaurants and very close to every attraction there. The Doors etc are very loud.

    They should call this place The Squeaky Hostel.. unreal amount of noise from the squeaky beds all night and morning, I slept like doo-doo. Everything else was fine, but I was there to sleep.

    Not at all what I expected based on the pictures! Location was great, yes, but the dorm room I was staying and the bathrooms were on a very cold basement. The windows were not patched and there was no door to separate the outside area so all the cold air was coming inside. There was no service inside the room as well as the wifi was not working there. There was only one small common room in the hostel. The whole environment felt very unfriendly and cold and the hostel unfinished.

    No kitchen was a problem but nice and cosy little place.

  • 2/5 Mechteld R. 7 months ago on Google
    Beautiful spot. Staff is okay. Not enough working toilets and showers for the whole hostel. They don't seem to be eager to fix the problem

  • 3/5 Andrea 2 years ago on Google
    Location is great. Aside from that I wouldn’t recommend. Had to use google translate since no one speak English. My stay was Kind of a mess.

  • 2/5 Don F. 5 months ago on Google
    Good location but paid way too high of a price for the service offered. Dorm door was broken off the hinge and had evidently been that way for a while, 1 small shared bathroom for everyone was covered with water from the shower. Mattress was worn out. Slept ok but would not return or recommend.

    Clean enough and nice enough stay but WiFi coverage when staying downstairs isn’t amazing which didn’t help

  • 4/5 S J. 1 year ago on Google
    Disclaimer: I stayed a few years ago, so some info might be outdated. The location is superb. Can hardly find comparable prices in the centre of the town. The staff is friendly and helpful. The rooms are what makes this less than 5 stars. Indeed I considered giving it 3. It's spacious, nice looking room. However the shower drain didn't work well. So like if you go to brush your teeth or to the toilet 10 minutes after the shower, you'll be walking in water. The beds are comfortable but super squeaky. Still the price and location compensate for that at least somewhat.

    Nice location but noisy rooms

  • 3/5 Kale 오성 H. 4 years ago on Google
    Staff were friendly and speak English. Rooms were alright, small lounge area. No kitchen. Location is very central, barely a 5 minute walk to the start of the main area. Overall pretty average, but the prices are affordable. Stayed July 2019.

    The rooms were really small. You could hear everything through the walls. It was really loud in the evenings. We were there for three nights. Our room didn't get cleaned neither did the trash in our bathroom..

  • 2/5 Alexandra 3 years ago on Google
    The hostel is nicely located, other than that it lacks hospitality. The walls are super thin and we walked up each morning at 7 am because the staff was shouting and cleaning loudly. The bathrooms could use Mirrors and shower curtains because the floor is covered with water otherwise.

    Good place

  • 2/5 Harleysargeuk 5 years ago on Google
    It's a work in progress. Good location but nothing is finished. Shower head not fixed no hot water. Dirty or flooded when come to use. I booked a six bed and got an 8 bed. No kitchen. Sitting room not well furnished no bike rental. Good bar cafe across road for breakfast and last beer at night. Work in progress I'm afraid

  • 4/5 Alise C. 4 years ago on Google
    Room was clean, good price performance. We lived in 4 bed room. In shower (shared with other room) was water leakege (there were no shower curtains), so had to be careful not to slip. There is no kitchen, but is common living room. Location is perfect, but have to think through, where to park car, couse nearest public parking place is about 10min walk away. Communication with hostel is little bit difficult, couse they didn't reply to email or fb messenger, but there is phone number at the reception to call and manager was coming soon, so we could check in before 14.00.

  • 3/5 Vera K. 5 years ago on Google
    Three stars, because it wasn't that expensive. Anyway I wasn't impressed with the cold water in the showers. I tried in the morning and thought maybe it was just empty, but I tried at 3pm again and there was barely anyone in the hostel, then tried 8pm and some others tried at 10 PM and 12am. Well, I told the staff they just said it should be warm. Still it wasn't. The other guests said it usually is warm, but I was only there for 2 days and it definitely wasn't and outside it was minus degrees.

  • 3/5 sava a. 2 years ago on Google
    Nice big modern rooms, perfect location, quite for sleeping, 2 WC for 12 people what is ok. Staff was not to much comunicative and first told that price is 15€ then when we come there he told that price was 18.

  • 3/5 Shivaani H. 1 year ago on Google
    Decent location and okay comfort. The rooms are quite small and noise travels easily through the hostel: expect to hear lots of creaking and slamming doors. Good enough for a short stopover but not for more than a night.

  • 3/5 Katarína G. 3 years ago on Google
    It is not the best hostel, but it's very cheap and the location is great.
