    I would really like a clothes and towel dryer. After the sea there is no place to dry a swimsuit.

    Good location, friendly staff, small kitchen with free coffee and tea. Good Wi-Fi.

    Unfortunately our roommates were really noisy even in the middle of the night they were talking and didn't respect the sleeping hours.

    The service and the location was great, the bed was clean.

    The bed is quite shaky, if me or my downstairs roommate move, we could feel each other. Also the sewer smells quite pungent.

    Good location, very economical, meet minimum essentials

    Super comfy bed. Hosts were super accommodating when we had a late flight / late check in.

    mattress

    The location is good, halfway between the bus station and the city center. It felt clean and my bed was comfortable, but my mother had a bed that she couldn't sleep on because the mattress springs were too far out, making it impossible to sleep. The hostel has a small kitchen and a table for two or three people.

    There is almost no security, because anyone can easily get the key and enter the room.

    Good location, but 34 euros for a nine-person dormitory is really too expensive.

    Doesn’t have shower gel in the room but there was an area in reception where people had left stuff for anyone to use like deo/shower stuff/razors - which is great and so helpful The door was broken to the bathroom and didnt close - didn’t bother us but might do others

    Air-con was great Big bed Easy access and close to everything Lots of plugs and long mirror Fridge is well labelled with everyones items

    the AC was positioned right over my bed, so it was rather chilly for most of the night.

    very flexible check-in and check-out times, super convenient location and friendly stuff (i didn't get to meet them in person due to my late arrival but over the messages they were very helpful and kind)

    Me and my mom arrived around 8pm and there were left 2 beds only on the top (of a bunk bed), it was also too hot inside, a bit better at night but still - open windows even though there was a conditioner on.

    Close to the city center, clean and comfortable. We paid around 30 euros for a person per night(9 people in the room) - it was the cheapest option for Zadar, but still expensive for a hostel.

    The space for leisure/ common room was really tiny, so were the sleeping rooms

    It was very close to the city centre and the stuff was very nice to allow me to leave my bag and to take a shower before the check in time. Toilet and shower facilities were very comfortable and clean.

    The hostel entrance is shared and the main hall feels a bit dodgy, with visible graffiti and signs of vandalism. However, once inside, it does the job.

    The two hospitalarios managing the hostel on my second night need to think about how their behaviour is seen by guests.

    Accommodation was good. Hospitaliaro on the first night was very welcoming. For the location was good being situated opposite a small part and not far from a shopping centre

    There is only 1 bathroom, which can lead to a bit of a traffic jam. It’s manageable, but you need to change your clothes in your room.

    Very clean Very homey Very quiet Supermarket just 3 min away City centre just 10 min away
