Why this surfaced

Repeated, deduplicated traveler-review reports matched these incident categories:

One report can match more than one category. Counts describe review reports, not independently verified incidents.

These are reports in traveler reviews, not independently verified incidents. Duplicate review text and strong repeat-reviewer identities count once.

Category matches are automated. Relevant passages are exact review quotes selected from concrete incident wording, not hidden model rationales. If none appears, treat the match as suspect and check the full review.

    • there are no keys for the building or the room

    Anyone who’s given a 10 must be trolling. Either they’ve never stayed in a decent hostel or they’ve been paid to leave that review😅No curtains, no decent mattress, the toilets weren’t clean… The flush in our toilet didn’t work – you can imagine what built up in there. What’s more, there are no keys for the building or the room. I can understand the women who wrote that they didn’t feel safe. Apart from the location and the staff, it’s bad.
    • Owner had a creepy friend who snuck into girls rooms and undressed.

    Owner had a creepy friend who snuck into girls rooms and undressed. Don’t go if you are a decent person.
    • pestering young women whilst they’re at it.
    • no security—no locks, few lockers, and random local sleeping in any spare beds going, pestering young women whilst they’re at it.

    Possibly the worst (and somehow one of the most expensive) hostels I’ve stayed in. Tiny rooms, a permanently flooded “bathroom” with only cold water, filthy communal areas, and almost no security—no locks, few lockers, and random local sleeping in any spare beds going, pestering young women whilst they’re at it. If you have to visit Budva, stay literally anywhere else.
    • The owners friends sit out front and hit on every girl as well as watching them sleep and touching them innapropriatly.

    Female travellers please DO NOT STAY HERE . The owners friends sit out front and hit on every girl as well as watching them sleep and touching them innapropriatly. I was called sexy baby on multiple occasions as asked out every day even after i say no . Every single girl had a negative experience with these men . We did tell the owner who 'kicked them out' but after we left we were told that the friends came back. Ive never felt less safe in a hostel and the showers are moldy as well. Be safe!
    • No locking system throughout the hostel;, anyone from the street can just walk in and go through your stuff.

    The location is central No locking system throughout the hostel;, anyone from the street can just walk in and go through your stuff. Mould all over the bathroom and room. Strange vibe...
    • Some Caretaker was there who was a fraud and ran away after some days. Cheated people with money and spoiling the experience.

    Good location. Some Caretaker was there who was a fraud and ran away after some days. Cheated people with money and spoiling the experience.
    • Bathroom cum toilet had no lock!
    Show full review Full review
    Host friendly and good location 5-7 minutes walk from bus station and 5 minutes from beach. Price matched what you got. No where to lock away valuables and no door locks either. Not the quietest with an aircon unit outside our open window going on/off all night. Room pretty compact -fine as a one night stop. Didn’t appreciate having kitchen light turned off on me twice while I was in there having a drink before the ‘quiet’ time and because no food/drinks in the bedroom (though ironically a fridge in the bedroom!) Bathroom cum toilet had no lock!

    It was central and the owner was very kind. More of a social hostel than I expected. Beds were clean. There is absolutely no security at this hostel. Anyone could walk into your room at any time as there are no locks to be found anywhere. Nor are there lockers. Some random girl walked in our room and used our toilet at 2 am.
    • Front doors always open and no locks on any doors, anyone can just walk in.

    Great location, decent room, clean, simple. Had working Aircon and shared bathroom for each dorm. Was good to stay for a night and quite cheap Front doors always open and no locks on any doors, anyone can just walk in. Felt unsafe leaving my things in the room especially when my room was the first room in the house. Not really a proper communal area, just some chairs and tables out front.
    • Owner blocked me from leaving a review by chancelling my booking after leaving a night earlier than planned.

    There were no curtains, no lockers, no locks on the bathrooms, mold in the rooms, kinda dirty everywhere. The hostel is open to anybody who wants to walk in. Owner blocked me from leaving a review by chancelling my booking after leaving a night earlier than planned. No refund policy. Hostel is near a very busy road, which was super loud. I didn’t feel safe at all and wouldn’t recommend for any woman to stay there.
    • hostel is incredibly open with access to dorms from the street.

    as a solo female traveler i felt beyond unsafe and uncomfortable for the entirety of my stay. only positive is location; bus, beach, and old town all 5min walk away. decent kitchen but no microwave. hostel is incredibly open with access to dorms from the street. no lockers, and doors to rooms do not lock or shut properly. owner and friends often hang around the front of rooms, and i was under the impression they all lived there. bathroom was covered in mould and was in a disgusting state
    • no locks for the room doors. Anyone can enter.

    Sijainti ok. Noin 10 min bussiasemalle ja rantalähellä - not comfortable atmosphere - no clean blankets - bathroom & kitchen not clean; no curtain at the shower & bathroom gets wet - only cash payment - owner & friends of owner live & stay around the hostel and especially kitchen all the time - no lockers for everyone - main entrance always open -there are no locks for the room doors. Anyone can enter. -These good review from some guests for this hostel doesn't feel real after being there. -I do not recommend -No towels provided -They don't clean the room floors, it was dirty.
    • anyone can access the rooms

    Some proper doors would be nice. Shout out to Volkan, he’s a good bloke and does his best but the hostel is lacking. It’s ok for one night if you’re passing through but the hostel is very average. The bathroom doors don’t lock, no lockers for your belongings, anyone can access the rooms and the communal spaces are basic and uninviting. There were some older blokes hangout and smoking in front of the room, they were up late and repeatedly left the room door ajar because it was difficult to close.
