    This hostel is just fabulous; most travelers end up extending their stay! It's high-quality, very clean, and completely safe; one can see how basically everything is designed for your comfort. It will be perfect for you if you're a digital nomad, as it has a coworking area with desks and chairs. Big lockers. If you're tired of eating on the road, this is also fantastic as it features a very well-equipped kitchen (including boxes to store your food safely). You'll find specialty coffee shops nearby (Kafeterija is 1 min away, and Sonder is maybe a 15 min walk). A cheap Aldi supermarket (maybe 400m away), and a smaller Maxi convenience store (250m). For those playing basketball, there's a decent court just opposite the building (you can borrow a ball from the hostel). There's also a calisthenics outdoors gym about 200m away. Bus travel is free in Belgrade, and it's only 3 stops to the center. Also, there's a direct trolleybus from Belgrade Central new train station (#40). Most certainly recommended!!

    everything from the outside seemed nice. beds were comfy and it was spacious. kitchen had neat boxes for your dried goods. nice tea and coffee included. good area outside as well. bus stop wasn't too far away

    the rules. there were so many. i felt like i would be walking on eggshells waiting for someone to yell at me and tell me what im doing wrong. the kitchen opens only from 8am-10pm, so you can't get water/tea/coffee outside of those hours, or any of your food, which must be stored inside the kitchen. also they play music loud from 8:30am-11:00pm, which wakes people on the ground level up but get mad if you make a single noise past 11pm. there is a basketball court in front of the hostel and at all hours, you can hear the noise of the ball. it echoes into the bedroom windows, especially since they're left open throughout the day and night. the bathrooms are small so it makes it hard to have any stuff in there. i see what they're trying with the rules, but it takes away from the hostel experience. it's also hard to connect with other guests and there are no real community events to bring people together. i'm bummed because the staff was nice, but kept to each other

    It’s very clean, quiet and comfy. I like some of their rules, like keeping quiet after 11:00 to let people have good sleep and rest.

    Cleanliness ,location,kitchen ,complementary coffee .

    It’s my suggestion to the owner that be formal or polite with your guest even the guest break the hostel rule unknowingly or knowingly.I was in a common area and one guy was laying on sofa and the owner came and literally was so rude with the guest that y r u sleeping here ,it’s not allowed .The way he used to this guest ,we can’t use if we work in tourism and hospitality industry even the guest is wrong but you should approach to him politely or formally because still he is your guest and he has self-respect as you were insulting him in front of others .

    Fully equipped amenities including kitchen and laundry, clean, co-working space available, worth the price with all those facilities

    - The hosts never said hi to me, nor even smile, let alone throw a small talk. Oh wait, I think they only did that to people who look like them or speak their language. I’d have to initiate the conversation and they’d often not respond to it accordingly. To me, they were just like passive-aggressive walking CCTVs who would scold me for my ‘wrongdoings’, without even making sure if I was aware of the rules, or at least empathizing with how tired I was after a full-day stroll. Whatever the reasons were, they should learn to be friendlier to ANYONE because people come from around the world and they work in a freaking HOSPITALITY industry. - Also they would let their dirty dishes laying on the sink for 30 mins or so and would only clean them after they finish eating, which discomforted the guests as they would always cook large loads of food (for the 3/4 of them, they eat together or something). - I would really love to leave a 5 or 6 out of 10 for this hostel but instead I gave it a 8/10 out of the goodness of my heart. I extended my stay for a couple more days only because the other hostels were worse. The hostel has fully equipped facilities and all that but still the best part of it is LEAVING.

    I stayed in a 6-bed female dorm, but honestly, I barely saw or heard my roommates — it was always quiet, clean, and peaceful. Each bed had its own power socket, reading light, curtain for privacy, and a locker with a key. Access to the floor was with a keycard, which felt very secure. There were several clean bathrooms and toilets on the same floor, and the Wi-Fi was fast and stable. Upstairs, there’s a nice coworking area — I worked from there daily and really liked the atmosphere. On the ground floor, there’s a kitchen and dining area. I usually ate outside where there are tables and chairs with a lovely view of the courtyard — very cozy and convenient. The kitchen is fully equipped — stoves, pots, pans, dishes, and even containers for food storage. Every room has its own labeled food bin, plus several fridges and a proper ventilation system. Free tea, coffee, cookies, and drinking water were a lovely bonus. There are even food containers available if you need them. There’s also a cinema room (I didn’t go, but it’s a nice option), and just outside there’s a basketball court if you feel like shooting hoops. And most importantly — the people. I met some amazing, interesting guests during my stay. Highly recommended

    The facilities were very good with a well equipped kitchen and multiple common spaces. The beds were comfortable.

    The staff is not quite friendly. And will enforce unnecessary house rules harshly. You are required to wear slippers inside, provided by the Hostel. These slippers are shared between all the guests without cleaning...very gross.

    Good location, very clean, nice lobby, kitchen and yard.

    I had a problem with a guest who was making noise up until 3am and the owner responded with a dismissive and inappropriate tone, even suggesting I was creating a scandal. Female travelers: if you value peace and respect, this may not be the right place.

    Property response:

    Thank you for your feedback, Bojana. We’re sorry that your night was disrupted by another guest, and we understand how frustrating that can be. That said, we’d like to clarify a few points for future guests. Even though it was well outside our reception hours, we responded to your message around 1 AM and did our best to help. We first offered to move you to another dorm, and when that didn’t feel sufficient, our manager offered to come in within 20 minutes to relocate you to a dorm on another floor. We’re not sure how this could be considered dismissive - we were actively trying to resolve the situation, but you considered refund as the only option. By 1:52 AM, you confirmed that the noise had stopped. While we do everything we can to maintain a peaceful atmosphere, a certain level of disturbance is sometimes part of the shared dorm experience. We believe staying in a hostel involves a degree of flexibility and shared responsibility among guests. As for your comment regarding female travelers: we take pride in the fact that many solo female guests choose our hostel, and our female dorms consistently fill up first. No other guests in your dorm raised complaints that night (even after we asked them specifically), and we don’t believe this situation reflects any broader issue of how we welcome or support female travelers. We appreciate you sharing your thoughts and wish you all the best in your future travels.
