    Very good location, it's in the walls of the castle, very close to central square and the beach. Home like atmosphere and budget friendly.

    There are some upgrades to be done but it is a family run business and I was there during peak summer so I’ll give them that. Overall it was an ok experience!

    The hostel is well located and the host is super friendly

    Beds weren’t comfy and the kitchen a couple metres from my bed in an open space right next to my bed. So when people were cooking my clothes were getting covered in the smell.

    Great location in the heart of old town.

    It was overpriced for what you get (but then again everything in Dubrovnik is overpriced). The room I was in was essentially sectioned off by a curtain so there was no door. In saying that, the hostel was quiet so noise from other guests wasn’t an issue. The bunk beds however are very squeaky/wobby so I didn’t get a great sleep.

    The location is fantastic being within the city walls. The staff were also friendly when checking in and very helpful with providing recommendations on what to do in Dubrovnik. The room was clean and the aircon was great.

    The facilities are very basic, the bathroom and kitchen are very small and there is no space to sit and eat. The beds were slightly uncomfortable and very squeaky.

    The location was incredible, to be able to stay within the city walls was incredible and the sandstone brick walls add to the authentic feel. The owners are amazing and friendly too.

    I didn’t feel my belongings were safe here. First, the hostel door didn’t lock and anybody could enter as most of the time no one was at the reception. Then, no keys for the room, and just a small storage where you could place your own lock. The room was also on ground floor, so people could enter from the street through the window. Luckily, the city is very safe, so I do believe them when they say it’s safe, but still I feel this is asking for trouble. When I arrived, the two available lockers were full of sand and small rubbish (papers).

    Great location, staff is really nice and helpful. No AC but it wasn’t hot at night.

    The hostel has a good location right in the middle of the city. Be prepared to walk up some steps to the hostel entrance though. When I arrived there was nobody at the front desk and the 2 phone numbers written down didn't work. After waiting around for about 45 minutes another guest told me to go across the street to the travelling agency they also run. From there check-in was smooth. I could drop my bags off early and also leave them for a while after checking out. The rooms were clean. The toilet was broken however but ultimately we found a way to make it work. Bedding and a towel is provided. There are little lockers with keys to lock up your valuables. However these are very small so I put my bags under my bed. There doesn't really seem to be a system for allocating the beds. Another girl paid for a female-only dorm however there was a guy sleeping in our room. Multiple people were told to just go up and pick out a bed. The door is supposed to be closed but it's often left open. The doors to the dorm don't lock either. It's a steep price but sadly that seems to be the standard for Dubrovnik. Definitely try to plan ahead and maybe get a hostel outside of the city center as the location is not really worth all the hassle

    The beds were so loud and rattling. No good sleep.

    Location great. Kitchen needs to at least have basic coffee. You have no micro and absolutely no coffee supplies. A super loud coffee pot at the door of lower room for expresso but it was so loud and with is going so early it was not a usable kitchen. The host was excellent. Alan I believe. The major problem with this hostel was the squeaky beds. They kept everyone awake w every turn. These beds need massive tightening !! Shower was excellent w hot water and pressure. Can't say enough how great host was.

    the wifi was pretty terrible. There were many times i just couldnt connect at all and other people around me were the same. . it would have been good to have had the air conditioning unit in the same room as the floor 2 bedroom.

    Location was excellent. As were the friendly owners. We had a great tour with the owner on first day there. Facilities were generally okay.

    The beds were making lots of noise when you were moving on them even gently. The flush of the toilet was broken so we had to use it while it was not covered and pull the pipe up or push it down.

    The location was perfect and easy to access. The owner was a family whose little daughter was adorable and she was already a good manager.

    The kitchen was not usable for cooking, and I always book places where I can cook, so it was a really downside for me

    The place is quite nice, it’s really small since it’s inside the old town and seems to be a old building.
