Residence Mahala - Boutique Stay Near Old Town

No breakfast provided but all the local amenities were close by.

Absolutely nothing all is the honest response.

Nice view and spacious room

There is no soundproof. You can literally hear the people taking from the other room. Also it says that 10pm lights out but there are guests making a lot of noise even at 2am which make it difficult to sleep. Also, they need to add side table in the rooms and also a little lamp.

Very close to city center, cafe and great breakfast places are 10-15 walking distance away. The apartment had everything you need, small things like a jug of water (even though Sarajevo water is high quality), tea and coffee available, very well equipped kitchen, great view on the hills of Sarajevo. Clean space, easy and smooth communication with the hosts, recommended stay.

It was actually a good training for me, but some people might not like going uphill, especially if you have to do it several times a day. It's not difficult by any means and Sarajevo is on the hills, so it's not unusual and it is a real city feeling there.

There was nothing wrong with the room, it was nice and clean, however a shower curtain is missing (everything in the bathroom gets wet) but the service was absolutely not top notch. We were received by the owner's mother, who speaks no English, which was a little difficult. We did not get the room we had booked, we got the smallest double room but had booked a Deluxe 3 bed room. We didn't say anything to the mother as it was a bit confusing that she couldn't communicate with us, so we wrote a message via Booking.com - we're still waiting for a reply. The next day I wrote a message about payment, no reply either. One morning we met the mother, who tried to tell us that we had been given the wrong room. She then called the son (the owner) and he said: I have to look into that, I asked if he couldn't look into it right away. He asked to have the mother back - she nodded, so when I paid I expected a reduction in the price but no. We were absolutely not happy to pay for something we did not get, therefore we will not recommend this place.
