Die Lage des Hostels ist top. Dieses liegt direkt am Meer und dort kann man super schwimmen gehen, SUPs oder Kayaks ausleihen. Leider gibt es keine Möglichkeit zu kochen oder einfach einen Wasseroberfläche zu benutzen. Das gute ist das inklusive Frühling. Die Pavillons sind schon etwas in die Jahre gekommen. Das Zimmer war okay, es hat etwas unangenehm dort gerochen. Die Betten sind etwas klein und haben schon ältere Matratzen. Im Bad hat es nach Urin gestunken und war auch nicht ganz ...

Great location right on the beautiful public beach. The staff were very friendly and helpful, and the rooms were cleaned regularly. The shower (and bathroom) was very wet and slippery due to the lack of shower curtain, but otherwise I found it to be pleasant. The fridge and the option to store valuables were also practical.

The bathroom situation is crazy having one shower and toilet for the whole floor but I feel like it is made up for the hostel being right on the beach. Free breakfast is also a bonus

The location is 10/10. The staff were friendly and very helpful. Shout out to Shawn ! There's a beach bar and a Snack Bar also a courtyard to chill by. It's a short walk from the Mall and walking distance from Pula centre. Lots of good restaurants and corner shops are only 10 mins walk away. This hostel met all my basic needs therefore I give it a 10 out of 10. I didn't need anything more. Top Tip...rent a hut if you want privacy but bring ear plugs.

This property’s location is perfect if you want to go to the beach. Also if you want to go to town the bus stop was a 5 minute walk away. However the shower situation was a bit weird with only a curtain separating you and the public as well as the rooms being incredibly hot and difficult to sleep in at night due to not even a fan. However for what you’re paying it’s decent. It just depends how comfortable you want to be.

If you want to go next to the beach, go there. The hostel is directly at the beach, but far from the city center, you can walk or go by bus. I stayed in the main building where the reception is inside. It is really really old, looks like 70th's, the floor became yellowed. There's no air conditioner, it could be hot in the summer. The bathroom looks ugly and old. The WiFi didn't worked in our room, only in the yard. The beds are good. There is no self-catering kitchen. May you can rent a bike.

Die Betreuung durch Chefin und das Personal war sehr gut, alle waren sehr freundlich und aufmerksam, die Lage der herberge ist sehr gut, da mit Nahverkehr bis sehr spät erreichbar. Leider konnte ich im Zimmer nicht den Fußboden kehren da der Besen fehlte, auch eine richtige Bettdecke fehlte. Deshalb gab es Probleme als es kälter wurde. Herberge hat auch einen eigenen Strand, auch Fahrräder und andere Sportgeräte waren immer greifbar. Fazit: ich würde dort jederzeit wieder übernachten.

Overall was a good stay, everything was clean and location wasn’t to far from the train or the centre.

Location was perfect if you want a beach vacation, however, if you’re looking to stay close to the city centre, it’s a little far. Staff was incredibly friendly, especially the guys working in the bar/kiosk area! The hostel used keys, but not everyone locked the door after them. No lockers in the room. So if you have valuables, bring them with you or leave them in the reception. The rooms were mostly clean, but a few nights in, there was a lot of ants in the room. No air condition

Les avantages sont indéniablement l'emplacement le bord de mer, les commodités sont suffisantes, mais en cas d'affluence, cela doit être difficile de prendre une douche si tous lits sont occupés. Certaines zones ont des odeurs d'égout. Le petit déjeuner est de bonne qualité avec vue sur la mer. Une seule prise dans la chambrece n'est pas super commode non plus.

Great location, the beach was gorgeous. Bus station to town is only ten minutes away. Everything except for the bathrooms were clean. My mattress was really old and there was no AC. Unfortunately no kitchen and the bar/restaurant were quite expensive.

Cons: The hostel has room for improvement. Many items are broken, and the rooms are uncomfortably hot. Although a repairman was seen fixing some issues, more consistent maintenance is needed. Additionally, the lack of an attractive common area makes it difficult for guests to socialize. Implementing an interaction schedule during weekdays could help guests meet and make friends. Pros: The staff are polite and helpful, the breakfast is good, and the burgers are delicious—especially the fish on...

Very expensive for what you get. A lot of old creepy men. Facilities are horrible. One shower for may dorms and not toilet paper. Rooms smell like a mix of bleach and urine. No AC, rooms get really hot as well. Luggage storage is overpriced. Nice location at the beach though and staff were quite friendly.

Hostel ist zwar direkt am strand, welcher jedoch öffentlich ist, sodass er von morgens bis nachts sehr überfüllt ist. Menschen liegen sogar direkt vor den mobilwohnheimen des hostels, sodass man fast gar keine privatsphäre hat. Auch der Parkplatz ist hierdurch immer überfüllt. Zudem befindet sich am Strand direkt neben dem hostel eine strandbar, welche bis 3 uhr nachts laut musik spielt ,die in dem gesamten hostel laut zu hören ist. Außerdem sind duschen kalt und wlan funktioniert kaum.

I booked the private ensuite… which was a mobile home with four bunk beds.. not really as described online. Incredibly hot (no fan/ way to move around air) and connected (with very thin walls) to other guests that were a nightmare. I ended up leaving early to sleep comfortably at another hostel. The location is the only perk, as it’s right on water. As a solo traveler, I would not recommend as it is mainly occupied by families. The man running breakfast was very kind and helpful.

Irgendwas scheint mit der Kanalisation nicht zu stimmen, es riecht auf dem gesamten Gelände nach Abwasser/Urin. Ansonsten ist die Lage ca. 40 Minuten Fußweg vom Zentrum entfernt, an einem Strand gelegen. Empfehlenswert ist es an den Felsen, 10 Minuten Fußweg entfernt von der Jugendherberge, zu schwimmen. Dort ist es ruhiger als am Strand direkt bei der Jugendherberge, an dem eher Familien mit kleinen Kindern baden.

The location is amazing! You are right by a lovely beach with clear blue water :) This is what makes the hostel special :) for the rest it’s simple, but fine. Unfortunately no lockers & no kitchen.

Ho soggiornato due giorni e due notti. Fantastica location sulla baia con un mare cristallino. Personale molto gentile e disponibile. Letto comodissimo, nel prezzo compresa anche la prima colazione sebbene basica c’era tutto! Location: appena usciti dalla vieta dell’ ostello, attraversando la strada principale, fermate del bus. Per andare in centro città con il bus 3a, per ritornare (Verudela) bus 2a, puntuali con aria con e nuovissimi!! Raccomando vivamente questa struttura Laura B.
