The hostel is in a great location, close to every major spot, bars, restaurants, shops, etc. it's also easily accessible as it is located in a flat part of the city. The facilities are super clean and there's a balcony as well. Harun was super helpful, accommodating and friendly, making sure his guests have everything they need. Overall, I'm really happy with my stay there!

The bed was very comfy I could sleep non-stop. I just needed to sleep but the facilities were also okay. The host was very friendly and helping people. I would prefer here again if I come to Bosnia again.

This is an excellent choice for a clean, affordable, and convenient stay right in downtown Sarajevo. The host was exceptionally accommodating and easy to communicate with. My train was delayed and he met me on the street at 11:30 p.m to show me to my room, making the easiest check in I have had in the Balkans. Despite being centrally located the accommodation is very private, and even though there was a loud concert on the street very near the room, it was absolutely silent in the room while I slept. The place was clean, bathroom in excellent shape, and the bed was very comfortable. I can not say enough about the hospitality of the host, he was just great. I highly recommend!

The communal space is super cute. It feels like being in a friend’s living room. Great cooking space for a hostel with a range stove and fridge. The staff were very helpful. Great location. I would stay here again. Great value for money.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's 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 little 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!
