Great location, 10 minute walk to the canal/town. 2 min walk to bus station. We stored our bags with them as well and they let us use their showers when we collected them a few days later!

Our room did quite literally feel like a prison, we were warned! Every room is different

It is close from the main station, which was very convenient. I was able to storage my backpacks at the hostel, so it made me easy to walk around the city on the day arrival and departure.

It rained a lot but it wasn't their fault

The concept, the experience, is very inspiring. I managed to peek into some of the rooms and each one must be a different experience. The breakfast is good.

We were a couple and couldn't stay in a double bed. We stayed in a bunk bed. We even tried to change but it wasn't possible. We got a very aesthetically 'cold' room. I think for the price the bathrooms could have shampoo and shower gel in the showers. I wasn't expecting their insistence.

The proximity to the bus station and the historic center. Next to an alternative neighborhood of Ljubljana, with a lot of street art. Very good breakfast.

The bathrooms are excellently clean and comfortable. They would be a 10 if they had a shower gel and shampoo dispenser
