    Everything was fine!

    Super friendly staff-we left something in our room and they kindly shipped that to us! Possibility to print and scan documents, which we really needed at that time! We had a great hostel experience! Would stay again!

    That we received different information about breakfast upon arrival. Upon check-in, we were informed that breakfast will be free for my son (8), but in the morning they told me that we must pay for his breakfast as well.

    That there were many opportunities for active recreation for children, e.g. giant tetris

    Noise on the hallway, but theres nothing the staff could do about it, because its not their fault.

    I liked how neat and clean everything was for a hostel. Staff were really friendly and helpfull.

    Just one toilet for women and one for men. The shower cabin does not have its own light. A church bell started to ring every 15 min at 6 am. At 8 there was a longer song. Maybe because it is St. Mary's holiday...I don't know if this is every day.That was my alarm for waking up:)

    The property was easy to find, it is up on a hill, surrounded by trees. The staff was friendly and really helpful with accommodating us and guiding where to park. The rooms were clean, the kids had fun in bunker beds. Hot running water in the shower.The toilets were clean. The hostel looks nice and I was happy to come here with my family. I remembered the days when I was a student back in college. :)

    There is no kitchen on every floor. There are too less parking place, hard to find a free place somewhere. During our stay there was a renovation what caused some noice.

    It is acceptable quality between youth hostels but not too modern. The staff was kind and helpfull. Generally it was clean.

    Large vacation hostel located in a building that hosts students through the school year. Close to Postojna cave and other attractions of the Kras region. Simple but clean and comfortable. Perfect option for budget travellers for an overnigt stay on a trip.

    The beds are not really comfortable but it's a hostel, we did not expect much.

    We needed a cheap bed only for 1 night. It was good value for price. The reception is 24h which was perfect for us beacuse we came at midnight. The girl working there was very nice. The parking is not very big and it was full but we managed to leave the car close to the entrance anyway. You have to ask for free towels at the reception (if they haven't run out of them yet for the day). Breakfast costs 6 eur. During weekend it was until 9 am but at 8.30 there wasn't much left so we decided not to pay and go to Hop Caffe which has excellent coffee and croissants.

    Really noisy, not the place to book for a peaceful stay. Lots of noise from the high schoolers who go to school in the building itself and the very small 3 bed female dorm is right next to the shared bathrooms and kitchen. Photos of the dorms online are also misleading - the room I stayed in looks nothing like it.

    Very cheap hostel in a good location for getting to the caves, cheap laundry, free parking, good kitchen facilities and friendly staff.
