I haven’t stayed in a dormitory before and I am pleasantly surprised at the experience. The bed was very comfortable. There was a pull down tray and charge socket in the bunk. More importantly there was a curtain for privacy. The air conditioning worked well. Toilet and shower facilities just across the hall. There is also an elevator in the building which was greatly appreciated. Five minutes walk to Old Town centre and the local bus and airport bus. The hostel has its own restaurant and bar downstairs too which is a bonus. I had a great stay here.

For a hostel, this place was nice. I stayed in a single room, as my hostel says are LONG over. The room was spotless and looked recently refurbished. The hostel part (from what I could see) were also clean and new looking. Breakfast was in a café attached and had a limited menu with about 8 different things to choose from. I prefer a buffet, but this was fine for 3 days. They can hold your luggage if you have a later flight.
The people at reception were less than friendly. No smiles, no real welcome. Could have been a bad stretch, but I encountered two different girls, and both acted like they didn't want to be there. Also, their emphasis on check out time being PROMPTLY at 10 was a little unnerving. I got out at 1006 on the morning I left (granted, this was my fault) and half expected them to charge me, or the miserable girl to say something, but they didn't. Oh, and for me, the pillows and beds were the most comfortable. But again, that could just be my preference.

Everything was clean and almost new including the shared toilet and the bathroom. The communal kitchen was the only thing which didn't look brand new but it was spacious and had a large fridge, cups, plates and kitchen utensils. I liked the fact that they put a curtain in the lower bunk bed so I had bit more privacy in the mixed dorm. The location was very good, in the middle of the Old Town in Zadar.
I wished the hostel name was clearly indicated or written in large letters. The ground floor was a restaurant called Eden and I passed in front of it about three times with my suitcase coming and going when I tried to locate it with Google Maps.

The hostel was right in the beautiful old town and it was very easy to find! From the airport you could either take a cab or the bus for 5€ and within 45 min max you’ll be there. There is a common room downstairs and also a restaurant. The food there is really good, but the staff is a little slow but mostly nice.
My first room was not so great. The airco didn’t work and it smelled like old sweat. I then asked to change rooms and I was given another one, which was much better! That was very kind! But I have to say the beds and mattresses weren’t the cleanest. It was oke but they a yellow sheen to it.

The location is perfect, it's in the old town of Zadar. Everything is near. The stuff was very kind, polite and flexible regarding my wish. Everything was tidy and clean, beautiful modern rooms and bedrooms, peace and quiet. Bed is comfortable and clean, it was a very good sleep. It's a really nice place to come and rest for one or more nights.
Towels are being rented and charged to guests. I don't like that because towels were always included in price everywhere in the world and it should stay that way. Instead of giving something to the guest for a nice memory of Zadar, hostel is charging use of towels.

I loved the rooms and the location!! The 6-bed dorm room was so spacious and it felt like a hotel room when I entered. There were big closets for storage for each person with a lock given to you. Towels were provided too. It was super clean and smelled nice when I entered the room. The location was fantastic as it was walking distance to everything.
The only complaint is the number of bathrooms. There was just 1 toilet and 1 shower for our floor for female guests and I thought that was less considering there were at least 5, 6 to 8 bedroom rooms on the floor.

The private room was tiny but comfortable. The staff was very welcoming and the cleaning ladies were very sweet and generous! The free included breakfast was honestly amazing, lots of options which were all very tasty and fresh! Also the food at the restaurant Eden was really good when we had dinner there (with a 15% discount as well!). Perfect accommodation when visiting the sights in the Old Town but also close to the beach.
Some parts of the room were a bit worn down but nothing mayor. For safety reasons, which are understandable and valid, the elevator shuts off when staff leaves around 23:00!

Beds were really comfortable ! The rooms are equipped with Aircon, which was really great to have even in May. I appreciated the curtains on the beds to have some privacy. The personal was really nice and helpful!
I thought the number of toilets and showers were not sufficient. It would be great to have a shelf in the shower to store stuff, and better hooks - all my stuff was constantly falling off from these hooks. I would appreciate to have a squeegee in the showers to remove the water.

Fantastic location right in the middle of old town. The room was spotless and the bunk beds each have their own curtain for privacy. There is air conditioning (and you need it iif you're there in the summer!). The staff were great, check in and out was as smooth as could be, and the attached restaurant had phenomenal food and the staff were very attentiver (and you get a discount for staying at the hostel!). Honestly, I have never enjoyed a hostel experience and was not planning on staying in one again but I am glad that I made this choice. It way exceeds the standards of a typical hostel.
The only thing I didn't like is that I wasn't able to stay in Croatia any longer!

Great property and staff. Had an elevator which was a nice surprise after a long day of travel. Great courtyard for breakfast and dinner. Great cube style sleeping chambers, big personal lockers, good A/C. Bathrooms and showers in the room and out of room.
The runner holding the curtain for the bed is not the best, jammed a lot, I had to be very delicate with it. The light switches weren't labeled so there was a lot of flashing lights from guests trying to turn on the right light.
