Welcome to ArkaBarka.

I stayed at ArkaBarka for 6 nights. The people were really friendly, and the breakfast was surprisingly good — a nice way to start the day. However, the rooms were quite small, which made things feel a bit cramped. Overall, it’s a decent place with a social vibe, but be aware of the limited space.

A dreamed hostel in Danubio river

A wonderful hostal on the river. This is the first time I stayed in a place like this. The staff is great and very kind, ready to help in case you need it. Rooms are nice decorated with surrealist painting. I had a perfect morning with sun, river, birds by my window. The restaurant is perfect and they a very good free breakfast if you spend the night here. Amazing hostel, I loved it.

Unique place with nice views on the river. However our room was pretty run down, the bathroom smelled very badly and the whole room was unclean. Also even with A/C it was very humid in the room, so much that even the bed was damp. Employees were very friendly and helpful. And it was nice to get a free breakfast.

This property offers a truly unique experience, as it is built on the river, creating a peaceful and memorable atmosphere. The staff were exceptionally friendly and attentive, making every effort to ensure a pleasant stay. If your room faces the water, waking up early to watch the sunrise from bed is an unforgettable highlight. As it is located on the river, mosquitoes can be expected. While there is a mosquito net, I would suggest to apply repellent before sleeping. Few mosquitos may still find its way in. We bought a protection sprays before our arrival and it was effective. Breakfast is satisfying, simple French toast, fresh tomato and cucumber, ajvar (a delicious traditional sauce from the region), as well as jam, eggs, olives, and fresh bread.

Smell of river in the room

We had two rooms. The one on the lower deck was very humid, Air con hardly working, door lock not working properly, morning buffet with cheese and ham standing in 30 degrees C for hours but worst thing was the smell of the river in the room. There was an Air freshener in the room that was frequently used to cover up for the smell. Low price, low standard - never coming back

Ottima struttura considerando che è un ostello! Il cambio biancheria non avviene automaticamente ma in qualunque momento puoi chiedere asciugamani puliti; non c’è pulizia e rifacimento dei letti giornalieri, ci hanno spiegato che lo stesso avviene solo tra un ospite e l’altro! Quindi nel nostro soggiorno settimanale non è mai stato rifatto il letto e gli asciugamani sono stati cambiati solo su richiesta Il clima dell’ ostello è comunque molto familiare e ci si sente a casa. La fermata dell’autobus (che ti porta in città vecchia) è molto vicina, basta attraversare il bellissimo parco che costeggia il Danubio Unica nota dolente è la colazione:caffè americano (espresso e cappuccino a pagamento), solo pane bianco o fritto con uovo, uova sode; fette di formaggio; würstel; cereali e latte; mele; maionese e ketchup; insalata di pomodori e cetrioli; salse varie tra cui nutella (?) e confettura di albicocche! Dopo qualche giorno ci siamo comunque abituati 😅 Siamo comunque stati davvero molto bene e nella camera era presente un bollitore con caffè e tisane che abbiamo assaporato sulla terrazza vista Danubio! 💙💙💙

Decepcionante. Anuncio engañoso en dónde se indica que dispone de parking, pero en realidad está a 700 metros y es en la calle (bajo la amenaza de sufrir desperfectos si no tiene matrícula serbia). Igualmente, error al asignar la habitación, lo cual fue comunicado horas después de instarlarnos.
