I don't think is OK for you to write us this review because you didn't stay at our hostel. You left after 2 minutes because you didn't like other people staying in the same room with you. Next time private room if you don't wont to share room with other people.Best regardsBartul Skansi

Really enjoyed my stay at this hostel. It's clean, has a stacked kitchen area , it's close to the beach and the staff are friendly. Going out on Pub crawls every night with Sofia was the best part of my stay.

Very friendly staff. Great central location to explore Hvar. Bar downstairs which is great but can get a bit noisy until about 11pm. Clean and comfy rooms, strong ac and amasing views of the harbour.

Hosteling
Would not describe as value for money, the dorms were "compact" and the security guard was a suprise. The bar crawl is just to the only backpacker pub in town, that in turn was pricy for the region and closed early. That said hostels are at a premium in this area and increasingly it's more about catering to the yachting set, so the 23.00 curfew is no doubt a reflection of this situation.

I enjoy my stay at this hostel. Our room has a nice view of the sea. Location was also great. If you are going back to the hostel from the town center, you need to walk uphill but it is just a short uphill walk (1-2 mins). Bartul was really helpful and he make sure that we had a pleasant stay at there place. I really recommend this place.

Spacious apartment in quiet area
Lovely apartment overlooking the waterfront. 2 generous sized rooms, one of which could comfortably sleep 3 people. Both bedrooms have balconies with great views of the water. Aircon unit is in the hall so if you close the bedroom doors it gets very hot! Helpful staff at reception, really nice stay overall.

Lovely hostel, great location - up the hill but not too far :-) Bartul was a great host, helped us to rent a boat, information about the town and the ice cream on arrival was appreciated! Nice and quiet too away from the town noise.

The check-in went very well with some explanation about the area and it was also fast. The room was spacious and with a beautiful view from the terrace. All very clean with the perfect tempreture in the room. The only disadvantage was that there is no elevator or a wheelchair ramp if you need one.

Great Deal and Location
Stayed here as a couple because of the location and price and it was a great deal. We had a studio room with our own bathroom, kitchen and balcony with water view. Short walk from ferry port and to the sights. Friendly check-in experience where we were offered ice cream and lemonade! Staff was knowledgeable about the area and offered good recommendations. It is still a hostel so you can interact with other travelers and bar crawl with them if you'd like - better for younger crowd for sure! luggage storage available and even can use shower after check-out if needed.

I had a private room which was a reasonable size given the cost. The large terrace was a bonus, especially with the view of the sunset! Pleased with my stay here and only a short walk to the main town. The staff provided a decent welcome on arrival with a very welcomed bowl of ice cream.

This hostel was a 5min walk from the main square. Location was good, but wifi connection was not great, sheets were a bit stained, the room smelled like alcohol and I got bit by bed bugs (that had never happened to me before)! And they only take cash for everything!

Hi, We check your bed and we didn't find any bed You probably mistaken them with mosquitoes. All the hostels and apartments in Hvar take only cash. Regards

Fantastic accomodation and welcoming staff
We had an awesome time here, it is a short steep walk from the ferry but on arrival the staff were awesome so it made it all worthwhile. The room we ordered was superb, very clean as was the whole hostel, spacious. Harbour views. Close reasonably priced restaurant near by. We would definitely come back here. Can order scooters from the top.

Friendly staff, good location, lousy wifi
Very nice and helpful staff; I was greeted with a treat while checking in. Location was not very far from center, ca 10 min walk; pebble beach ca 5 min. Every bed has power outlets close by. The shower was a bit filthy, though staff did what they could and cleaned several times a day. VERY lousy wifi - I had to go next to reception to have a connection. No chance surfing comfortably in the bed.

Great value, great views
Great hotel - more reminiscent of a hostel however. The staff was extremely friendly and spoke English. Upon arrival we were greeted with juice, as well as some delicious cake and strawberries. The view from the room was incredible. The beds aren't the most comfortable ever, but definitely did the trick. Great value for the price. Would definitely stay again.

A large apartment with two balconies with attractive views, only a short walk from cetnre of town. The address was reasonably easy to find but it would have helped if the name had been displayed somewhere! It is not a hotel and does not take credit cards despite what the booking info states.
