    Not sure what's going on with Kosovo and Turkey, but on my 3rd stay in Kosovo on 3 different hostels, all of them were presumably managed by Turkish people and guests were almost all Turkish. Nothing against them, but be aware it might be hard to strike up a convo if you like to do such stuff when travelling solo in hostels...also the common area is minimal (small kitchen communicating with a room). Towels have one euro fee. Bathroom seemed clean enough but running out of paper.

    Great position and price, the guy dealing with the guests and reservations is nice. Lockers and safe.

    The room was generally comfortable, but unfortunately, there was a noticeable smell of smoke inside, likely due to guests smoking near the exit door.

    The 6 bedroom dorm is a walk through. There is a smoking room in the hostel, and you need to walk through the 4bedroom dorm to get there. That was quite disturbing, when people were going there even when the light in our room were off + there was a constant smell of cigarettes.

    The hostel is centrally located. The kitchen and bedrooms were clean, the bathroom needs better maintenance. The host was helpful.

    It's a bit difficult to find but the Turkish man will be ready to call you and helps you to find the hostel . Very good job

    It's like an apartment turned into a hostel. The WiFi is very fast!!!one of the best in the city. The Turkish man that works there is very helpful and speaks English. They also will give you the locker for free. Also they clean everyday!!!! On the top of that you are in the city centre. The kitchen is small but has everything.

    There should be a door for the first dorm as well, because it’s connected with the kitchen. So, the room is cold & every smell of the kitchen goes inside.

    Excellent location, comfortable bed, clean room, good sized lockers, great wifi & an extremely cheap price.

    It is not a professional hostel, but basically an apartment turned into one (which is fine, but not what I expected), in which the 6-bed dorm is the living room. There were no real female and male bathrooms (only the signs), since only one of them had a shower (the only shower) and everyone used both. It wasn't that easy to find, since they don't put the floor on the address and one cannot use the elevator without a special key that's not provided (so, stairs only). Not the greatest vibe to make contacts.

    Location is amazing, right in the middle of the city center. Bathroom and facilities in general were pretty clean. Comfortable bed. Fair lockers.

    I found very disturbing that the guy did the cleaning at 2:30 am. Doing a lot of noise at that time and also putting cleaning products when people were trying to sleep. It’s a small place so you can hear everything. They should wait to do housekeeping in proper hours.

    Hostel is in a great location. Near the main square

    Strange hostel experience

    • Bunk Bed in Mixed Dormitory Room

    The 6-person dorm is basically a walkthrough. You have no privacy whatsoever. There are people walking around the room in the middle of the night, turning the light on and talking loudly. There is nothing you can do about it. Moreover, although it's centrally located it's above a night club (or whatever that is) and the music plays really loudly, stops at about midnight. Overall it's not miserable but I wouldn't stay there again

    The place is clean and the staff are friendly. That's why I am not rating it completely negatively

    Kitchen lacked stuff to actually cook with (pots, pans, etc.) and had no table to sit down at. Payment was challenging and pricing inconsistent. My shoes got moved to a closet outside of the hostel that I wasn't told about, and no staff in the building for me to ask - I would have lost them had a guest not helped me out.

    The location is 10/10 and it's relatively clean.

    Not recommended at all. The flat is extremely small and overcrowded with bunk beds. There's only one toilet, which was highly inconvenient. Additionally, there isn't a single chair or table available, making it very uncomfortable

    The hostel that I had booked was overbooked and they sent me at another building that wasn't working as a hostel yet. The first day there was not even an employee when I arrived and nobody was answering my messages that I had sent through booking. When the employee arrived, he wanted to eat firstly and then to check me in. The card payments weren't accepted while it was written that they are.plus it was dirty and there was no air-conditioning.
