Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    The staff is super friendly and welcoming, Ivan which I guess is the manager does his job perfectly, the environment is chill but at the same time very involving. I’ve been in the hostel a few times because I’ve been volunteering in a place nearby and I can assure it’s the best hostel for backpackers in Sarajevo. Also the position can’t be more central.

    So, where do I start? I am a backpacker who have been to 84 countries so far and this was one of the best hostels I ever had stayed in. Igor is a really cool host, the place is very friendly, it’s so clean and fresh, perfect location, even a “indoor” balcony where you can sit watch people walk on the street. There’s small mirrors in each bed for your morning routine, there’s small pockets for your important belongings. The bed are comfortable and you create your own space with curtains. Highly recommended!
