    The hostel had the most beautiful sunset view I have ever seen in a hostel. Also it's the cleanest and most comfortable hostel I have ever stayed. Thank you so much 💓 Congratulations from Greece 🇬🇷

    I guess wherever you go as a solo traveler in Novalja it’s hard to meet people in the hostel but easier outside in the bars… but that’s not the hostel fault I guess it was also still low season.

    This is one of the best hostel I’ve ever stayed. The location is amazing, the view, the beds are comfortable, with curtains,…and I guess it was the cleanest hostel I’ve stayed. Nice kitchen as well! Highly recommend!

    It’s not cheap, but probably cheapest in town. It’s just not a place for cheap backpackers

    This hostel has everything you need: It is nicely located, has a big kitchen, is next to a supermarket and the dormitories have a wonderful view

    Maybe, the BBQ area needs more attention and the kitchen. Otherwise it was all prefect.

    I can tell you that the place was absolutely one of my favorites. beautiful people and staff, beautiful beach. the area is very crowded and you have many walking distance stores and restaurants and of course bars.

    They cleaned every morning the bathrooms but it was fully booked and in the evening there was a mess every night in the bathrooms. I think that responsibilities are more for guests rather than the stuff.

    It is a nice location and a good experience overall. It was exactly What I was expecting. The only thing I didn't know was the size of the room. But the view from the balcony was spectacular and it was totally worth.

    Could be a little more social with events that can be oraganised on weekends or holidays.

    Very clean and spacious room with a great view of the beach. The location is perfect,12 min walk from main Novalja bus terminal and for the Sonus festival (Zrce beach) 100 m walk to the bus station and close to supermarkets and the center.Check in time of 15:00 hrs was flexible which was very considerate of the staff and much appreciated.

    Nice look to the Sea. Nice personal u can get every thing every time if you need some thing. Just little thing : the water in the shower fittings is sometimes difficult to adjust. I would go definitely again if I go there😊

    The shower coule need some extra cleaning. Also we can't enjoy the stay at the terrasse tables without buying drinks from the bar.

    The staff was polite & nice.Except once the cleaning lady woke me up at 9:30 by making cleaning noises.

    I just didn't like that the front of the hostel was also a cafe/bar. Wasn't a place you could just chill and hang out without having to feel like you had to buy a drink.

    Fantastic location, beach front and close to everything you want. Very much appreciated that there was free parking as well.

    Novalja was more touristy and “party” focused than I imagined. If you’re looking for a sleepy Croatian island town, Novalja might not be the right fit for you. The live music at the hostel bar was quite loud in our room into the night.

    An amazing hostel experience! The staff were the nicest I’ve met during my travels. The hostel is well designed with all the things that make a hostel good: - curtains on the bunk beds - decent sized locker for luggage - lots of private bathrooms - an incredible kitchen for cooking a full meal or making coffee - outdoor space - helpful and amazing staff

    That I had to leave ^^

    Amazing place to stay, right in front is a beautiful beach. It's clean, friendly staff and supermarket is right next to it. Busses to Zrce are about 100m away. Couldn't have chosen a better place for my stay. Special thanks to Lucy, Lea and Anna that were very friendly with every question that I had. <3 would book again! Perfect location!

    Would be great if there was someone to take the trash out from the rooms, also there was no toilet paper in the bathroom for almost three days in a row.

    Best hostel in Novalja located directly in the city centre, the AC works wonderfully, staff is exceptionally nice and helpful We loved our big balcony
