I only stayed the one night, and it's relatively unusual in my view that a hostel does everything remotely (though I appreciate it's clearly low-season), but overall, yeah, it was a really nice, quiet and comfortable place to stay. Lots of hostels in Dubrovnik looked/sounded less than great, so I went for a top-end hostel; more expensive than some others but I was very happy with my choice :)
nothing springs to mind

Great facilities and amazing price.
It’s a great offer to be honest

The room is pretty good in size for 4 people.
Beds are big in size and you get your privacy with the blinds provided in each bed.
Bus stop is nearby to go to old town. Airport bus is about 15 minutes walk from the hostel.
Receptionist is accommodating.
The toilets and bathrooms are not properly maintained also with the cleanliness.
No locks for individual rooms ,as they said there are cameras. Only the lockers have locks and keys.
I have stayed in different hostels in europe, they need to keep up with the standard .

Secure storage space, excellent kitchen facilities. We were party of 3 women ages 86, and mid
sixties and 2 of us had top bunks! beds are enclosed by privacy screens and have chargers, lights,
shelf space within. Beds comfy and linens and quilt excellent.Lovely balcony with seating. Bus
right outside of hostel. 10 Euro shuttle to airport. Hard to condtact directly. HostelWorld did not
list address or phone number. Fortunately, Uber had heard of then and had destination on their site.
No heads up about need to reserve lower bunks, if desired. No way to contact them directly
i.e. no published address and phone number.
Booking.com did not respond to email sent day before arrival. If Uber hadn't had them included in list of destinations, we'd have not been able to find the place.

One of the most ergonomic style of bunk bed ( enough space for almost everything)and quiet comfortable mattress which is so important for me.
Quiet hours.
Nice Sea viewing rooms with balcony and nice kitchen with a terrace.
And good location for everywhere, the bus stop is just infront of the hostel when coming back from the old town and when going just across the hostel, so easy.
Toilets were only 2 for women. Although when I was staying I did not have problem since there were less people but if it’s full it’d be difficult with only 2 toilets.🧐

The hostel was clean, the location was very good, and the staff professional and helpful.
Sometimes there is no hot water in the shower.

So far everything.
Hosts were very friendly, bunk bed was with curtain and ac. I stayed in female 4 bed room. The lockers were huge with the keys and our room also had a balcony with a good view.
There is a kitchen with some free food and good stove :). Also, everything was super clean including showers and toilets.
One small thing is that my room was located near the bathroom and in the night people loved showering and drying their hair (no complaints about this) but it could be a little noisy.

Very clean, great location and spacious beds. Its very quiet which is nice if you’re a solo traveller or group looking to relax but potentially not if you want something more social.

It was in a great location with restaurants all around it and a grocery store below. Everything was extremely clean and comfortable. The view off the terrace was amazing!
The cost of doing laundry was extremely expensive. €7 just to use a washing machine.

It is located close to supermarkets, bakeries and restaurants, and the bus terminal is really close. There was a small kitchen area and a nice terrace with a view to the beach. The rooms had a big locker were you could store luggage and even hang your clothes, the beds were super spacious, with a nice sort of shelf were you could keep your belongings and curtains as well.
If you need to store your luggage after checkout they do have some lockers downstairs, but they cost 5 euros. It is a bit far from the city center, so you need to take the bus if you want to visit the old town. Toiletries were not provided.

Big balcony! Nice rooms and beds with curtains. Kitchen with needed supplies. Near the bus station.
Prepare it's not that near the old town

Hostel usually don’t give you towels but in this case nice towels are provided.
Every room had Air Conditioning
I’ve been there only one night and that night the showers didn’t have hot water so my personal experience was so bad.
There are no common rooms like in other hostels, just a tiny tiny space in the kitchen (and the kitchen itself is very little) and a little terrace but if it’s cold outside you Can’t use.

Clean and comfortable
The main door manual entry is a problem. Someone locked the door from outside and we were not able to open the main door from inside.We received help from people outside.

Good location, staff are very helpful.
Hot water run out when a lot of people have used. Also, would suggest for the blind at the pod, it can make noise when people come back especially late night. It may be better to change to fabric and slide on the side without making any noise.

I got the 4 females' room. The hostel is very close to the bus station, like 10 mins walking. It has an elevator, multiple showers and toilets, a big kitchen to cook if you want too and the bedrooms have a balcony. It was very clean and the bedroom had enough space to move. They give you towels and linens. And everyone has their own lockers, which I consider are big enough. You have your own socket to charge your electronics and light on your bed.
Great area, not loud at all.
Now, on the other hand I made a mistake while doing the reservation (the days I was going to stay). I wanted to stay from 27 to 29, and accidentally, I put from 28 to 30... and I wanted it to change it but booking didn't allow me to do it and I tried to contact them and they didn't reply for about 2 or 3 weeks. So I had to make another reservation for the day I missed. When I arrived, I told that to the lady on the front desk that I had two reservations on my name and she only managed to make me stay in the same bed/room... But I never got back the money from the day I said I wasn't going to stay.
And when I was checking out, there was nobody on the front desk to leave the keys or nowhere to put them, so I just left the keys on the desk and wrote them on WhatsApp.
Another thing, the hostel is not that close to the old town it's like 45 mins walking. Or just wait for the bus to take you there. I waited 15 mins, and it never arrived, so I had to walk from the hostel to the Old Town.
And the showers don't have either shampoo or soap. So take your own.

Awesome outdoor patio
Small kitchen - you can cook or just make yourself a coffee
You can arrive late and it’s not a problem - I got instructions for the keys
Very close to shops,market and cafes-although it’s not in the centre
5 min from bus station
Always someone working in the communal area made it impossible to chat with others-probably worth having some rules about it (after 8pm no work maybe? To facilitate hostel atmosphere)

I had one of the 4 bed room. It was comfortable. It also included big locker so that was quite useful. Other WC/Shower were shared for the whole floor but never face any problems. It's also close from the Dubrovnik central bus station (approx 10mins walk) convenient for early morning bus to next destination. Also there's a nearby TISAK very useful to first time buying bus ticket bcz the Dubrovnik pass need to be activated by visit specific place or designed local transport kiosk (which bit problematic on Dubrovnik pass). Here's the google map 42.6517185, 18.0888166 location of nearest designed transport kiosk to pick up your free city transport pass if you have Dubrovnik pass.
Anyways I had good stay.
Cannot complain.

My first night staying in a hostel - and it was a nice experience. It was simple as expected, but for the price ok. Bed was also ok, despite of the fact that i prefer a soft mattress. I would recommend that hostel.

Internet was great for a digital nomad like me
Clean all the time l.
You can get abus from the airport direct to the hostel
The cubicles have a power outlet and lamp plus screen for privacy plus You get lockable storage.
Comfortable seating for work but I guess it wasn’t built for this purpose

It was a clean and nice hostel. Nice and friendly people. roof top view was a plus
They make you pay for luggage storage. I felt like if we are stying there then they should be willing to store our luggage for couple of hours after check out.
9.0 / 10.0
Good location close to the harbour and main busstation. Busstop right in front from and to 'old town', supermarket and coffeeshop on the street level.
Bakkery and bar just a few meters away.
Comfortable beds with power-outlets, small light and privacy-screen. Very friendly staff.
Adequate showers, optional use for washing machine and/or dryer.
Kitchen available for use, outdoor terrace and in the entry hall storage lockers, for a small surcharge, to store luggage after check-out if you still have some time to spend in Dubrovnik.
I walked right past the entrance. Mainly because of Google maps and because I wasn't paying attention probably.
I've never stayed in a hostel before so can't compare, but ones like these i would surely book again!

Good location, clean facilities, beautiful women dorms and separate bathrooms for men and women.
I thought the tourist city tax was already included in the price I had paid on Booking, but it wasn't.

It was clean, the common space is also good with a great view, staffs were very helpful.
I have to pay for storing my luggage for extra half day. Usually, in hostels like this they allow to keep luggages in some room so that people can take it later.
10.0 / 10.0
Everything,
Dorms were clean and spacious with air con and a balcony area. Booked an 8 bed, feels like a 4 bed as partition wall within the room making it even nicer.
The personal lockers were like your own single wardrobe with shelves as well!
Lovely communal patio area, great view and to make friends
Kitchen with all basic amenities needed to get by.
Separate girls and boys showers/toilets (2 showers in the girls and 1 toilet.
Lovely staff! The owners dad picked me up from the airport - super lovely, put me at ease straight away, reminded me of my grandad.
Zoran the night guard is quiet and observant but good to chat too throughout the stay.
The reception staff are also wonderful and accommodating, nothing is too much trouble for any of them!
There's also storage lockers for if you arrive early/ leave later than check out - good size only €4

The staff were genuinely very lovely and were willing to help and assist in anyway they can. They provided good information and tips and wanted to make the stay comfortable. Was very handy to have small supermarkets underneath and a good cafe outside that had delicious coffee. The bus stop to old town is already right outside and handy. Plus only a 10 min walk from the main /international bus station. Each room comes with a balcony that had lovely sunset views. There was plenty of space for luggage and moving around in the rooms. Each bed had its own dedicated small wardrobe that was so much storage and a bike lock was provided. There is the possibility of luggage storage but it's not provided by the hostel. They hire out the lockers on the ground floor of the building. There were two showers and one bathroom for women in front of the rooms (no ensuite) which I was worried wouldn't be enough but I never had issues with access.
Quite a small/compact hostel taking one floor in what appears to be in a shopping centre and so it is not easy to find as its on the upper floor above shops so you need to look out for the hostel sign next to all the other shop signs and definitely wasn't easy to spot in the night. There wasn't too much leisure space in the communal areas and most of it was a balcony so you will be using this or the balcony in your own room. Be aware that the towel they provide is not a bath towel size but smaller, probably to stop people taking them to the beach but would have been good to know in advance. It was great a lock was provided but it was a bike lock and they were really long so even locked, someone could really easily open the wardrobe doors and grab anything their arms could reach so not really secure at all. Luggage storage is 4 euro as there is no space in the hostel itself. Great that the hostel is only one bus away from old town however the bus was always absolutely packed

it is a bit far from the old town, but still is close to the bus station for ex, in case you come by bus late night
