I stayed here as a group of 4 girls.

The location was OK although we didn't like Split as a town and would not return when there are so many wonderful places in Croatia to visit. It is up 2 flights of stone steps so beware if you have heavy bags!

The beds were very uncomfortable, we were in a 8 bed room despite paying for a 6 bed room. The hostel sleeps 28 people but there are just 2 bathrooms! The bathrooms have a shower and a toilet so in the morning you had to join a long Q of people showering just to use the toilet!

The best thing was the communal atmosphere (albeit smoky) as everyone was united against the owner's mother!! She took our deposit from us and demanded more than the price (expensive for Croatia) her daughter had quoted the day before and when we queried this she shouted in our faces and threatened to call the police. Her shouting woke up others in the hostel and in a final vindictive act when WE threatened to call the police on her as she was withholding our passports she forced us to pay in Euros with an exchange rate very much in her favour! She left us very upset and felt the need to draw other guests into the argument as she became increasingly frustrated at our apparent 'stupidity' at not wanting to pay extra money to her.

I would not consider staying here again even without the argument it was overpriced and uncomfortable and needs more toilets!!

Enjoy Croatia, don't miss Dubrovnik and Hvar.
