Guest Reviews

• Kaur (8/5): - The staff was so fun and warm and approachable. Absolutely lovely people. Had the best time ever. The vibe of the hostel is very homely and positive. Must stay The washrooms could have been cleaner. I mean they were clean but slightly conjusted. That was the only part of the stay that slightly turned me off.
• Nina (7/5): - Близко к достопримечательностям, балкон с видом на море Очень шумно, все говорят слишком громко. Шкафчики расположены возле чужих кроватей.
• José (5/5): -
• Carolina (8/5): Agradable estancia - La ubicación y personal La escasez de baños para la cantidad de clientes
• regine (8/5): Auberge agreable et bien placee. - L’emplacement et la vue depuis les terrasses l ́accueil agreable des personnels le fait de pouvoir laisser les bagages pour visiter la ville. Les excellentes consignes pour les visites avec le plan.auberge agreable zt bien placee Monter les 5 etages a pied . Frigo trop petit pas de microondes et plaques a induction capricieuses la cuisine pas toujours laissee propre par les utilisateurs.

• Fatima (7/5): -
• Nikola (10/5): Coming back - The location was in centre town,near to the green market.
• Leann (7/5): - The location was close to everything we wanted to see and experience. Other guests were very noisy.
• Joanna (1/5): Horrible experience Don't go there Drunk workers Not safe Dirty kitchen No respect - Both male receptionist didn't respect that people wanna to sleep after midnight. Around midnight they were loud, smoked cigarettes, ate in the kitchen next to the dormitory. When I kindly asked, if they could be quiet, because people wanna to sleep, they were rude and even louder then before. It was first time in my life that I arrived in such a horrible place. I don't understand so good reviews of that hostels. Two male receptionists drunk vodka and smoked in the hostel. I didn't feel safe there as a woman and stayed there only because I arrived after 11 p.m. In the morning I left that horrible place. There is no hostel spirit there at all and also the kitchen was dirty. Don't go there, find another place!!!

• Luiz Jaques (8/5): Vale a pena - Bem localizado. Funcionários prestativos. Um elogio especial para o Mike. A internet ficou sem funcionar por um problema externo e o Mike disponibilizou a internet do celular dele para todoss usarem O hostel fica num edifício. Sao 5 andares de escada e não tem indicação na portaria que é no último andar.
• Michael (2/5): -
• Jurica (10/5): - Very nice family/traveler vibe hostel with nice living room and nice balcony with sea view. Very helpful staff that will in any moment show u what croatian/dalmatian/Split hospitality and charm really is. If u wanna remember a hostel in Split, book this one.
• Bahadır (10/5): - Eğer yalnız seyahet ediyorsanız bu hostel aileniz veya arkadaşlarınızla kalıyormuşçasına rahat edebilirsiniz, çok sıcak bir hortamı ve güler yüzlü, enerjik ve neşeli insanlar sizi asla yabancı hissetmiyolar. Hostelin konumu gayet güzel, tuvaletler ve odalar temiz teşekkür ediyorum Odalarda askılık olursa daha iyi olabilir (:
• Miriam (5/5): Largely the expected value for money. I might stay again but undecided. - Very affordable. Quite close to the station. Spacious lockers for storage. I was only there for one night, but if I’d stayed longer I could have made use of the facilities like fridge, kitchen, washing machine, and lounge room. There seemed to be a bit of mold on the shower walls. The beds were extremely squeaky and felt unstable on the top bunk. It was quite difficult to find as well as it is on the top floor of a building with no signage to indicate- I was standing outside in the dark for nearly 10 minutes before someone was coming back in and let me know where to go. Somewhat better communication or a sign would have been appreciated. Personally as a solo female traveller from a Western country, I also had a bit of an uncomfortable experience with the staff. The people who run it are all men and the oldest of them expressed some quite traditional views on women directly to me. Made me a bit distressed for the remainder of my stay. However, this would not apply to everyone, and all the other staff and fellow guests were lovely to interact with.
• perez arias (10/5): Precio - calidad 10/10 - Precio calidad lo mejor de SPLIT, está a 5 min caminando del centro histórico, buen ambiente con los demás huéspedes, además es como hospedarse en un airnb pero con más personas.
• eugenio (9/5): Personale molto gentile e alla mano. -
• Guest (6/5): Social hostel but a few negative points - Near to the city center! The volunteers (staff) were very nice, but also most of the day drunk or high (in my perception). In general, it was clean, but there is mold in the bathroom.
• Georgieski (10/5): Amazing experience. - Really clean, the staff are amazing and super friendly.
• Sterpin (10/5): - This was my firste ever stay in a hostel and I have never dreamt it could be this good. The staff was amazing, they helped me with every question and request I had. The location is great, almost in the centre and super close to the beaches, maybe 5 min walk at max. It was super clean with cleaning service every day. Also the other guests were super chill to talk to. Definetley recommend it. I didn't get to stay longer🙃

• LJ (4/5): Meh. - Staff were friendly... Very bad smell in the room, smelt like sewage - woke in the middle of the night gagging from the smell and had to open window for the night. Run down. Up six flights of stairs and I had to carry them upstairs. Location not amazing if you're travelling from bus station with bags.
• 東京高裁ロンドン支部 (7/5): - 人は優しいです。ロケーションもそこまで悪くはありません。設備や清潔さも最低限は整っています。 最上階の5階までエレベーターはないので階段で上がる必要があります。誰でも入ろうと思えば入れるのでセキュリティは期待しないでください。ただ、人は優しいですし、かなり安いので妥協できます。
• corvalan (10/5): - The friendliest people, the best energy and a balcony with a great view. It's something like floor 7 and no elevator.
• Kedar Pratap (4/5): - Location and view is good. People were continuously smoking and were intoxicated. Felt a bit unsafe. Washroom were very small and dirty. Very crowded dorms
• Oleksii (10/5): -
• Marion (6/5): -
• IrtiG (10/5): -
• Aline (8/5): - Hot water is not sufficient for all costumers and no one let us know it in advance.
• Geert (10/5): - Staff is super friendly /
• Volkan (7/5): - Great value for money. Not luxurious, but a fantastic team and a super-friendly owner. The location is great.
• max (10/5): It was very good and time of year excellent price/service . Management team is best and friedly - Best personell I meet again , friedly and welcoming . I came in Early Spring when not yet a high season and was satisfied fully with team and accomodation All was good
• tamac (9/5): Very pleased - Very friendly and welcoming
• Karim (4/5): Perfect location but comprimised cleanliness - The location is great, it is almost 10 mins walking to everywhere. The cleanliness and the smell were very bad and the hostel was basically a mess.
• lamyea (10/5): -
• Vitalijus (8/5): 15 - Normal everything Normal everything

• christian (10/5): -
• Francy Yaneth (9/5): muy buena. - me gusto que esta cerca del terminal y pude llegar super fácil, el personal genial, y me sentí muy bien. solo me quede una noche pero pude descansar. lo único mal que vi, es que queda en el ultimo piso y mi maleta pesaba mucho, y no había ascensor. pero el chico que estaba en la recepción me ayudo.
• Thomas (10/5): -
• Yutaka (9/5): -
• Miranda (7/5): A nice hostel,small, cozy living room, friendly people, loved the wall paintings. -
• Zvonimir (10/5): My experience was geat and I'd like to return once more - The Staff. The people I've shared my room with. And I've had nothing but fun.
• Robinson (10/5): - Easy to find, clean, and the staff couldn't have been better
• KISA (10/5): - 荷物はチェックイン前アウト後も預かってもらえました！ 看板犬がいてとても癒されましたが、犬アレルギーの方は注意が必要です。 旧市街も歩いてすぐで、バスターミナルからも少し距離はあるものの歩いて行けます。 キッチンも使えたのでありがたかったです。 建物の最上階でバルコニーからの眺めはとても良かったのですが、エレベーターがないので階段がきついキャリーの人や荷物が多い人はおすすめできないです。
• Adélie (8/5): -
• Pablo (8/5): - Debo decir que el ambiente del hostal es muy bueno debido al carácter y la buena disposición de los propietarios. Hay un feeling alegre siempre. Esto es lo mejor de todo para convivir en un hostel.. El hostal es una amplia vivienda en un edificio aunque con limitaciones de espacio. Es lógico. La limpieza que procuran tener es muy buena y los baños están perfectamente atendidos siempre. Hay aire acondicionado y siempre hay una temperatura optima.Las duchas están muy bien y hay lavadora. Siempre está limpío Por poner una parte menos buena, el hostel está en un edificio y hay que subir varias plantas para llegar. No hay ascensor. Así que si te fatigas, este no es el mejor sitio.
• shaohua (8/5): 性价比很高 - 位置很好 厨房公用设施可以多准备点
• Fabricio (10/5): BIENVENIDOS - Es muy cerca del centro, la fácil acceso , la atención de Vedran es la de un hotel 5 estrellas pero con el precio de hostel. Siempre atento a cada detalle, se puede cocinar, lavar la ropa, las duchas están muy bien y tienen un balcón muy lindo. Un ambiente agradable, chill, 10 de 10! Incluso pedi para que mi amiga pueda venir a visitar y comer algo conmigo y no tuvieron ningún problema. Un lugar que verdaderamente te da la bienvenida! Todo fue perfecto! Gracia
• Marcelo (8/5): - Tudo bem organizado, muito bom!
• Zara (8/5): -
• Nicolas (4/5): - Bon prix Propreté et odeur désagréable.
• Elizabeth (8/5): -
• Virginie Raissa (8/5): - Les équipements de la cuisine et les nombreuses douches Il y avait de la poussière dans plusieurs endroits
• Hermelinde (8/5): -
• Jana-Jae (7/5): -
• Laura (3/5): - Está muy bien ubicado. Tiene un lindo balcón. Mi cuarto olía muy mal, la cañería olía mal, el cuarto es demasiado pequeño para tantas camas. No es cómodo en general.
• Zara Horak (8/5): -
• Hermelinde (9/5): - Very helpful and friendly team
• Isabella (3/5): Not worth it unless you want to hike you stuff up flights of stairs and only want a party night - Isabella was able to walk from the port. Good location to facility’s but building is run down and full of graffiti It is at the top of a very tall building so you have to walk up 8 flights of stairs to get to the hostel no elevator. The kitchen and living area were lightly littered with dishes ect. The room was fine but people were playing music in the main room for a long time so you can’t sleep.

• Jake (10/5): A great location in the heart of Split with an awesome staff that makes you feel like family! - I was here during the Christmas week and extended my stay through Christmas, not just because the town of Split was stunning, but Vedran and the rest of the staff made me feel at home. We had a lovely Christmas dinner, and felt like I had found my tribe for the week. He was always checking to make sure the guests were comfortable and welcomed to mingle. It was hard to leave. I felt very safe and comfortable, which is not always the case at hostels. Also, the sunset views from the balcony are top notch! I will definitely stay here when I come back to Split. Bathrooms are small, but not really much that can be done about that.
• Jake (10/5): -
• Caktaš (9/5): -
• Lina (10/5): - Me gustó el personal, muy amable, dispuestos a ayudar a compartir y a hacerte sentir en casa. La ubicación excelente, la decoración y los servicios también. Sin lugar a duda me quedaría nuevamente
• Claire (5/5): - For those considering this hostel, beware that it is on level 6 of the building with no lift but it meant it had a great view across Split. The toilets and showers were quite old and felt quite dirty. The price of the property did not meet the facilities provided.
• Estrella Mariela (2/5): No lo recomiendo - Que era barato. Despues de que me dejara Booking en la calle sin hotel, busque lo q podia pagar Los baños con feo olor. Lugar chico. A las 9 pm no queda nadie de la administración. Un grupo de personas, 4 aprox, hicieron ruidos con música y hablando fuerte hasta las 2:30 de la mañana. Varios le pedimos que respeten el descanso, haciendo caso omiso. Y como no había nadie de la administración no teníamos quien de las pautas de respeto básicas. Así que muchos no pudimos descansar. Lo hablamos al otro dia. Todos queríamos cambiar de lugar. Por suerte yo me iba. Otro tema es q no avisan q es un 6to/7mo piso x escaleras. Tema importante si andas con equipaje. No lo recomendaría. A solo q estes sin dinero y no haya otro lugar
• Brent (9/5): -
• Goran (10/5): -
• Julie (10/5): Lovely stay - I met people and make friends so easily at this hostel. The hostel is great and staff so helpful. And the view wow. I recommand 100%
• Simone (8/5): - Alles war sehr unkompliziert. Hatte WG atmosphäre. Alles in allem ok für die Lage und den Preis. Personal war super nett. Es gab Leute, die auf dem Balkon geraucht haben, der Gestank ist auch in die Zimmer gezogen. Dusche und Klo waren super eng.
• Károly (10/5): - That was my first time in Split. Really enjoyed this place because it was a good location it meant anytime on my day it was easy to go back to take a rest. So if you are in Split and looking for a nice place with a good staff highly recommend it.
• Olga (10/5): extra! - bardzo przyjazny personel, czystość. wyposażona lazienka oraz kuchnia. balkon z leżakami .
• Duque Marin (9/5): -
• Sandy (7/5): -
• Joaquín (10/5): - This place offers a great price and a convenient location. .
• Flávia Catarina (5/5): - Simpáticos e prestáveis. Apesar de organizarem jantares e eventos, a partir das 22h30 não houve barulho. Parece-me um hostel para quem está com espírito de viagem de finalistas. É caótico. O hall está cheio de sapatos espalhados, no quarto também estão as malas abertas no meio do chão, as camas cheias de coisas espalhadas. A casa de banho também podia estar mais limpa, mas penso que fui das últimas pessoa a acordar portanto acredito que seja por isso.
• Domas (9/5): - Friendly staff, good place to socialize, lockable cabinets, clean bathrooms A bit lousy from the common area in the late hours. It was hot in the room even though outside was 20-22.
• Alexandre (9/5): - Les guests étaient nombreux, intéressants et accessibles.. super
• serhii (10/5): - Все добре навіть дуже працівники дуже хороші
• Olena (10/5): - Friendly reception, good location, clean and tidy Nothing
• Mia (6/5): -
• Louise (7/5): - Très bien placé et cuisine fonctionnelle. Plein de recommandations sur la ville me sont faites lors du checkin. Chambres un peu petites, on se marche un peu dessus quand tous les lits sont pris. Des rideaux seraient donc appréciables pour plus d’intimité
• Ivana (5/5): - Mirna lokacija, veliki locker, šarena posteljina, metalni kreveti Plijesan u tuš kabini, uzak prostor
• Daniel (8/5): -
