Reasonable budget option a fair way out of town. Bed was really comfortable and breakfast good. The guys who run it are really friendly but it is quite basic.

Excellent Hostel in Sarajevo

Excellent Service. I had an individual room and I was by 24 days. For me was like staying in a country house in Colombia (my origin Country), but the hostel is near Otoka Market (you can find ATMs there), Mercator, dm, and Airport. The administrator is so gentle and helpful. The Bosnian bread in the breakfast is one of the best I've proved. Thank you for everything.

Falleferdig. Kakerlakker på badet. Edderkopper på veggene. Dørene er korroderte. Vandrerhjemmet uttrykker hans vennlighet. Vannet er ikke alltid varmt. Det er ingen sentralvarme. Badene er skitne. Frokost er ikke daglig.

Helt ok hvis du trænger en billig overnatning

Et gammelt og slidt hostel, hvor du får hvad du betaler for. Det er billigt, og det ses og mærkes. Bygningen er ikke isoleret og med 6 grader om natten i Sarajevo under vores ophold, blev det en kold fornøjelse at sove der. Sengetøj og håndklæder på værelset var rent, men der var ikke vasket i badet og hår (!!!) fra værelsets tidligere boende, lå i badet… Ulækkert! Værten var utrolig hyggelig, trods han næsten ikke snakkede engelsk, bare tysk. Kunne have boet her igen hvis jeg trænger et billigt ophold i Sarajevo, men betaler hellere lidt mere og får noget ordentligt næste gang (hehe)…

Butter vor 6 Wochen abgelaufen. Wer die Küche sieht, verzichtet danach sowieso auf das Frühstück 🤢☠️ Möbel zusammengewuerfelt/provisorisch repariert.... BITTE NICHT BERÜHREN ❗❗❗😵 Die gesamte Wäsche riecht uebel entweder ohne Pulver oder kalt gewaschen. Sofa statt Bett Laken zu klein bzw. tiefe Lunke in der Mitte. Alles feucht und klamm. Dusche kaltes oder gar ein Wasser. Also ne Dusche nehmen können Sie vergessen. Nicht mal warmes Wasser zum Zähne putzen. Der Besitzer gab den Wasserkocher nicht heraus, hatte Angst ich kann nicht damit umgehen 😡 Das Fenster konnte ich nur einen Spalt weit öffnen, weil das Sofa davorstand. Kein Haken um was anzuhängen, keine Sitzgelegenheit, keine Möglichkeit etwas zu trocken. Frühstück kalt aus dem Kühlschrank auf den Tisch. Der Besitzer, ein sehr alter Mann, REFAT sein Name sagt nur immer :"KEIN PROBLEM" aber die Probleme wurden von Tag zu Tag mehr, sodass ich nach 5 Naechten abreiste, obwohl ich 9 bezahlt hatte. Ich weiß, dass ich für einen geringen Preis keine Besonderheiten verlangen

場所は衷心より離れており、最寄りのトラム駅から歩いて15分ほどと立地はよくないです。ただし、コストパフォーマンスは抜群です。 １５€で個室、部屋備えつけのシャワールームとトイレがついた部屋で、朝食もついています。スタッフは親切で、言葉は通じませんが、とてもフレンドリーに対応してもらいました。１人旅の人には、お勧めです。very good hostel !

Loše i neprimjereno.

Vlasnik objekta nije bio na mjestu niti se javljao na poziv telefonom. Zvao ga je majstor koji je vršio neke radove u objektu. Osjećali smo se primorani da tražimo drugi smještaj.

Trevligt boende lite utanför centrum

Svårt att hitta till och inte så smidigt med allmänna kommunikationer men väldigt trevlig personal som bjöd på det lilla extra vid alla tillfällen. Champions League i receptionen, extra tilltugg efter vi kom tillbaka från löpturen m.m. Väl fungerande wi-fi för de som värdesätter det. Stort och rymligt rum. Mycket prisvärt på det stora hela.
