Explorer Podgorica

The hostel is within walking distance from the bus station. The locker in the room is very large—big enough to potentially fit two carry-on-sized bags. There is air conditioning. The owner offers airport transfer for €25. (If you’re looking for a cheaper option, a regular taxi might be better.) There is space on the balcony to hang laundry, although I didn’t use it as I only stayed one night.

The owner does not speak much English. The toilet and shower lacked cleanliness—they didn’t seem to be cleaned with much care. There are no power outlets at each bed.

Upon arriving rang door bell and owner lives on ground level, shown how to use fob to unlock front door and then headed up to my dorm. I was only one during my stay. Short walk to bus/train stations and not very far from center.

Kitchen was very basic with cooking equipment, sadly all hot drink contaniners where empty. Apartment does heat up quickly, but A/C seems to help

Ten stars for the owner who was super helpful and understanding. He was very accomodating and kind. The area is also very good--a five minute walk from the bus stop. The apartments are very spacious: a balcony with a couch, a living room, a kitchen with a full 4-burner stove and large sink. Overall, glad I stayed here.

€10 to use washing machine, so I didn't.

I was the only traveller so got upgraded to a private room. The host was very nice and let me pay the next day as I didn't have cash when I arrived. The kitchen has decent equipment and the whole place had aircon available which was helpful because without that it was very cold.

The hostel was very cold without aircon. Only one bathroom so I imagine it would be challenging with more than 1 or 2 guests staying. The kitchen wasn't the cleanest but it was manageable. The location was very close to the bus station but not ideal for getting into the city center. Could've used a light near the bed as the only light was the big overhead one.

The location was very close to the bus station where we arrived.

The shower took a very long time to warm up, which is probably something we should have expected but it would have been nice to have been told how it worked beforehand.

Only 5min from the bus station :)

There was no water available in the morning for about 1hour but it got fixed then
