Bland but I'd stay again

Frustrating to find as its located in a quiet lane a few hundred meters back from its advertised address. For a city hostel, it has limited staffing for check in so be aware of office hours before you arrive. The room was clean and bright with particularly comfortable bed. No ensuite in room though, not even a basin or mirror. Communal bathrooms were of varying standards depending on the floor. Apart from value for money, the highlight for me is the city the hostel is in. Less than 10 mins walk to the historic waterfront area of Ljubljana. City centre is attractive and lively. I'd stay there again.

Good location hostel

Pros: Lovely and helful staff, plus location is convenient as its 20mins walk to the main train and bus station, and 10 mins to town.
Cons: Wifi worked very well in the reception area, but barely works in the room. Bathroom and kitchen really could do with updates.
Location: The town central is 10 mins walk away with information office nearby, so good to get information of what to do.
This hostel is a student dormitory converts to hostel during summer, so the facility is pretty basic. The bath room needed some renovation as there were 3 showers and 2 didn't have shelves to put your toiletries on. The one that did didn't have a shower head. The kitchen also needed some updating as there were hardly any plates, bowls or cooking utensils (there were about 3 pots and they were badly burnt that are not usable anymore). Plus stuff keep going missing from the kitchen, first the dishwashing liquid, then the few plates and bowls that were there (not sure whether guests borrowed them to their room, or they were removed by the hostel)
