Guest Reviews
- Paul (8/5): Alpine trip - Nice and convenient for short trip to beautiful Ljubljana
- Ben (2/5): - .
- Jorge (6/5): - Es una opción low cost, la habitación no tiene aire acondicionado ni neverita, hay que tenerlo en cuenta en verano, es una residencia de estudiantes y tiene las comodidades justas.
Los baños están algo viejos y son compartidos, pero todo funcionaba.
Las camas eran cómodas.
Desayuno gratis y amplias zonas comunes y deportivas.
Se puede llegar andando al centro.
- Aurelien (10/5): - Really tidy and well maintained. Was close to everything as well. I highly recommend it!
- Or (6/5): - The staff was wonderful and the concept was cool. However, the Private rooms were also dormitories and there was no sound isolation so you could hear everything. Ping pong on site was great
- Gamel (8/5): - Bonjour,
Je le recommande vivement !
- Ching Yue (8/5): - Overall good
- Nerva (4/5): - ligging was ok maar alle andere punten onvoldoende
- BLANCA AIDA (6/5): - Hostel con camas tremendamente incómodas. Las puertas de las habitaciones eran poco robustas y no aislaban nada. Muchísimo ruido al abrir y cerrar. A pesar de haber cogido una habitación triple, no tenía baño privado. Había una ventana encima de la puerta por la que pasaba la luz cada vez q se encendía la del en pasillo. Desayuno correcto
- Verified traveler (6/5): - Hostel var ok. Stort værelse med en masse skabsplads. Men støjen var tydelig at høre fra gangen og naboen.
Til gengæld var det godt placeret i forhold til stationen og centrum.
Rengøringen kunne være bedre på fællestoiletterne.
Personalet var søde og hjælpsomme.
- Rutger (8/5): - Als je gewend bent aan het verblijf in hostels en geen moeite hebt met het delen van toilet en douche dan is CIC een prima optie. Ben je gehecht aan luxe en privacy... Niet doen.
Onze driepersoonskamer was piepklein, maar de bedden waren prima. Ook zijn we door de medewerkers steeds heel goed en op zeer vriendelijke wijze geholpen. Het inbegrepen ontbijt en de gunstige ligging ten opzichte van het centrum zijn een aparte vermelding waard.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Friendly staff. Clean room, shared bathroom. Good wi-fi, free parking. Excellent breakfast. Near the city center.
- Anna (8/5): Helt ok - Rummen var inte superbra städade men över lag ett bra ställe. Personalen supertrevlig, de som jobbade med frukosten inte lika trevliga.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - It is a dorm adapted to be a hotel. Clean, cheap and has very good location. I value great and helpful service. There's a lot of travellers from around the world.
- Verified traveler (6/5): - Hostellet var dyrt ift, hvad man fik for pengene - der var beskidt og ødelagt på badeværelset og i køkkenet. Det lå dog i fin gåafstand til den gamle bydel og værelserne havde fin plads.
- claudia (8/5): Buon soggiorno - Esperienza positiva. Si tratta di un ostello in cui abbiamo soggiornato una notte io, mio marito e mia figlia di 14 anni. Struttura funzionale, pulita e, seppur non in centro, in buona posizione. Abbiamo parcheggiato praticamente a fianco della struttura. Colazione a buffet. Ottimo rapporto qualità/prezzo
- Jesper Mads (6/5): - A big dorm which is converted to a hostel in the summer is simply not cosy or nice to stay in. It is however cheap. But if you'd like things like a normal room, two-person bed or personal shower - look elsewhere. If you don't care about these things, and just need a bed, this place is allright, and the breakfast buffet is fine as well. There is, however, some annoying sensor based light in the hallway, which can pretty much enlighten your whole room, when you're trying to sleep.
- Fabio (6/5): Prezzo diverso da quanto prenotato - Con sorpresa il prezzo di prenotazione non è stato quello che ho realmente pagato al mio arrivo. Avrei dovuto pagare 46€ tasse incluse invece al check in mi è stato detto che erano escluse, prezzo finale 52,5€. Sito di prenotazione non preciso...
- Brandon (8/5): - The hostel is located in a quiet residential area not far from the center of town. It is right next to a sports facility with a track and basketball hoops, a super market is very close, which is convenient if you use the kitchens available on each floor. Breakfast has all the standard options and there's always enough for everyone. The hostel is very large so sometimes there is a wait to get any help from reception and the bathroom on my wing was out of soap for more than a day. Overall it's a good value, the beds are comfortable, and there is AC. It is a hostel that caters to families and tour groups as well as young people so it's not for partying.
- Rasmus (8/5): - Overall it was a good stay at this hostel. No airconditioner made it a little hard to sleep at nights. Breakfast was excellent!
- guillaume (8/5): hébergement simple et efficace - hébergement dans des chambres sans voisinage donc silence et indépendance (salles de douche).
Excellent petit-déjeuner
- Carola (8/5): Fint hostel samt beliggenhed - God modtagelse ved ankomst med en døgnbemandet reception. Madrassen i sengen var en anelse kort, men ellers et fint værelse - dog uden aircondition/ventilation. Generelt gode bad- og toiletforhold samt et tilfredsstillende udvalg ved morgenbuffetten.
- Adriano C (10/5): Excelente - Foi ótima, tudo como diz no site e o café da manhã supreendentemente bom !!
- Verified traveler (8/5): - El personal del hostel es muy amable, el desayuno es bueno
- Verified traveler (6/5): - The beds were fine but the building and showers were old. Breakfast was good. You are close enough to the city centre to walk so that was nice too. The smokers are standing close to the doorway and that lets the smoke into the building and nearby rooms. I was on the fourth floor and couldn't open the window due to the smoke.
- Calle Emil (10/5): - A bit hard to find, dont type in the address in your gps, instead search for the hostel name on google maps, then it is easy to find!
Overall a very good to the price hostel, and close to the city center!
- Marc (8/5): Auberge de jeunesse très bien situee - Auberge de jeunesse a quelques minutes du centre a pied.
Parking gratuit et facile a quelques mètres.
Toilettes et salle de bains très propres.
Literie confortable.
Environnement calme.
- chen (10/5): - Great position
- Lovisa (6/5): - Trevlig och hjälpsam personal. Det stora minuset var att det var väldigt mycket väsen från gatan utanför hela natten. Folk som skrek och festade. Det hördes tydligt även fast fönstret var stängt. Detta gjorde det svårt att sova.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - 가격 대비 정말 괜찮은 숙소. 찾아가는 길이 조금 어려웠음. 단점은 여름에 가서 더웠는데 창문을 열면 방충망이 없어 벌레가 들어옴. 그래도 시내와 가까운 편이고 직원들도 친절했음.
- Guillaume (8/5): - Très bien, mais c'est une auberge de jeunesse : confort spartiate avec douches et WC communs. Bien situé à 10 minutes à pied du centre ville.
- Adriana (10/5): Lubiana rwoday trip - Struttura ben organizzata
Ambienti puliti e spaziosi
Prima colazione a buffet ottima
Soggiorno veramente piacevole
- Noam (4/5): Not recommended. Not even for free. - This 'hostel' is a students dormitory converted to a hostel during the summer vacation. As such, the conditions and facilities are not ones suitable for hosting. When i arrived the hostel it was a hot day. Since there are no air condition in the room it was barley impossible to sleep. Add to that the dozens of mosquitoes and other insects in the room and your nice vacation turn into a nightmare. The amazingly horrible mattress i was supposed to sleep on not helped as well. Good thing i planned camping and brought a camping mat i slept on.
Yes, the price are good, showers and toilet are nice and stuff tries hard (well, apart from the girl whom i came to complain and the only thing she managed to say is: "this is how it is"),
but seriously, you don't want to stay in that place.
- Michael (6/5): Loe Budget mit gutem Frühstücksbuffet - Typisches Hostel mit allen Vor und Nachteilen.
Sehr lebhafter Verkehr, grosses Hostel mit viel Wechsel rund um die Uhr (wörtlich), da direkt auf dem Campus mit nochmals 2 Hostels in ummittelbarerer Nähe. Sehr zentral gelegen mit einem sehr guten Frühstücksbuffet. 24 h Check in und out. Kostenlose Parkplätze in der Nähe. Freizeitaktivitäten direkt vorhanden, Sport im und direkt vor dem Hostel. Sanitäranlagen durchwachsen, z. T. Schimmel und frequentionsbedingt mit Sauberkeitspotential. Einfach und praktisch aber z. T. lockere Toiletten und undichte Waschbecken. Eben Hostelcharm. Sauberkeit was Spinnweben o.ä. betrifft auch Hostel Niveau, das sollte jedem klar sein. Hostel Team bemüht, aber da die Anzahl der Durchreisenden sehr hoch ist, leider Verlierer beim Putzen und reparieren. Zimmer sind sauber, praktisch und gepflegt bei den für uns wichtigen Punkten. Sehr viele Infos über die Stadt und das Umfeld verfügbar, einfach fragen.
- Gökmen (2/5): Sämst - Sämst...AC kondition fanns inte alla varje rummet eller privat. Blir det väver är varmt när vädret i Ljubljana. Några insektar och myggor små.
- Monica (8/5): - Det var et udemærket ophold til prisen. Vi havde 1 overnatning. Sengene var fine, personalet var venligt og parkeringen var god. Det tog 10-15 min. at gå til byen hvor der skete noget.
- Mao-sung (8/5): rate is good, near town centre - The only problem is the address put on hotel.com, not easy to find, especially when the guest carry a have big trolley case. Need to revise the address info and put more sign near the hostel.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Perfect for low budget - Very nice staff
- Frederick (6/5): A Good, Inexpensive Place to Stay - Hostel DIC is a university dorm, which is converted to a hostel in the summer months when students are away. It is an all-win convenience. The dorms are not fancy, and the clean bathrooms are shared. DIC is not fancy, yet quite functional, and it is considerably cheaper than hotels in the city. The biggest drawback is that it is a little hard to find, and it is maybe 15 minutes walking to the bus/train station and over 10 minutes to the center of the Old City.
- Verified traveler (6/5): Decent spot - Pleasant stay with excellent breakfast. Staff is very friendly. Overall, I enjoyed staying here. Again, beware, this is a hostel, so you don't get amenities expected of a hotel.
- tom (10/5): Better than most hostels - It was not the house of horrors that we feared it would be. They seem to try to keep the pub crawlers in a different area than the quiet people.
- Tina (8/5): Cheap and nice, great breakfast! - We were one couple and two friends staying for two nights. As a couple, having two separate beds were not ideal but we can not complain for this price. Room was clean, showers were perfectly fine, with separate rooms for the showers, and the included breakfast was close to hotel standard. Slight noise at night, as the rooms are not very sound proofed, but the hostel rules say no noise after 9pm so it was still okay. We are very satisfied with the stay and would
- RB (6/5): Bland but I'd stay again - Frustrating to find as its located in a quiet lane a few hundred meters back from its advertised address.
For a city hostel, it has limited staffing for check in so be aware of office hours before you arrive.
The room was clean and bright with particularly comfortable bed. No ensuite in room though, not even a basin or mirror. Communal bathrooms were of varying standards depending on the floor.
Apart from value for money, the highlight for me is the city the hostel is in. Less than 10 mins walk to the historic waterfront area of Ljubljana. City centre is attractive and lively.
I'd stay there again.
- steve (6/5): cheap and cheerful for a one night stay - on student campus with shared bathroom and toilets. Had no problems in getting access.
within walking distance of all main attractions.
although offered breakfast, did not take up the offer.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Nice hostel, close to city centre - The hostel is close to city centre, especially by bike (there is a Ljubljana bicikelj very close to the hostel). The wifi was a bit spotty. They have a nice breakfast (buffet-style) that's very affordable.
- Quin (6/5): Good location hostel - This hostel is a student dormitory converts to hostel during summer, so the facility is pretty basic. The bath room needed some renovation as there were 3 showers and 2 didn't have shelves to put your toiletries on. The one that did didn't have a shower head.
The kitchen also needed some updating as there were hardly any plates, bowls or cooking utensils (there were about 3 pots and they were badly burnt that are not usable anymore). Plus stuff keep going missing from the kitchen, first the dishwashing liquid, then the few plates and bowls that were there (not sure whether guests borrowed them to their room, or they were removed by the hostel)
- Verified traveler (4/5): Okay room, good location - Dorm of college campus. Older building. It was really hot while we were there and there's no AC or fan. Room is just a bunk with little else. Staff was friendly. Good location
- Erving (10/5): Good! - Overall good! Clean, well located, we had a problem to find it because google maps took me to a place 03 blocks away but nothing that bad. Its located between college dormitories so it was a little bit noisy. In general it was good the staff very nice.
- Verified traveler (6/5): Close to the old town - The hostel was very clean and close to everything. One thing I didn't like was the bathrooms. It's fine that they're shared, but I wish the shower doors were solid and not just frosted.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Hidden gem. - A short walk to the city centre and hidden away from the street. Initially, difficult to find but quite happy with the facility once I found it.
