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.

We like the position of the hostel directly on the river, the view toward Kalemegdan and the green view toward the big war island, the breakfast, the staff, the hostel architecture, everything was nice, the apartment on the ground floor in glass and the lock. I would like to come back again.

Sjov oplevelse at bo på en husbåd!

Dette var en anderledes oplevelse! På den positive måde! Utrolig sjovt at bo på en husbåd 😅 Hostellet havde en fin beliggenhed til byen hvis man ikke er bange for at gå lidt ekstra, det var rent og sen indtjekning på kode til døren fungerede perfekt! Vi ankom sent om aftenen hvor receptionen var lukket, men det gik rigtig fint at tjekke ind selv. Med service havde vi delte oplevelser. Før ankomst var vi i kontakt med hostellet ang. bestilling af taxa, og de var hjælpsomme og satte os i kontakt med en taxachauffør, som endte med at hente os. Da vi skulle hjem igen var det også sent om natten, og da vi ønskede hjælp til at bestille en taxa igen, blev vi mødt af en ligeglad medarbejder som sagde at “det måtte vi bestille selv.” Så ja, lidt forskellige oplevelser, men alt i alt et cool sted, hvor jeg gerne havde boet igen!

We were landing in Belgrade at 5am so I made the reservation the night before so we can check in when we arrived at our hotel around 6am and sleep until checkout at 11am. I messaged the hotel that night to let them know we’d be arriving at the hotel around 6am to sleep only a few hours after a night flight. We get to the hotel at 6:30am but reception didn’t open until 8am. We were so tired and sleep deprived we walked over next door and their reception was open and they had rooms Available so we ended up staying there a few hours instead. I paid ArkaBarka $65 for nothing and then still paid $55 next door to sleep only 3 hours if that! Ugh
