Staying Good Bye Lenin Hostel was a very pleasant experience. We enjoyed the complementary breakfast, cheap full-service laundry (approx. $3.00), and great location. The staff was very friendly and informative. I would recommend staying here

Nice hostel with friendly staff. Located in the heart of the Old Town and rather close to the train station. The rooms are spacious, there's a large common room and a decent kitchen. No wi-fi in dorms. But I couldn't feel the real backpackers' spirit there.

The hostel staff was very helpfull, but as far as visiting Auschwitz and Wieliczka Salt Mine we did so by a quite smaller price than that advertised in the hostel. The breakfast is very good and the common room very pleasant to be in. The rooms are very big, but we coulnd't be sure if the blanket and pillow covers we're in fact previously washed. The bathrooms were always very clean, the only problem was that in one day we couldn't have hot water. Overall very very nice stay.

This was a nice hostel, clean and well run. My only complaint would be the frosted glass on the bathroom doors. It's very difficult to feel comfortable this way.

Great Hostel, one of the best we have stayed in!! Staff were very helpful and location was great! Found the window in the toilet door a bit strange as you can see everything that's going on! It wouldn't stop me coming back though!

Really cool common room kitchen area which makes it easy to meet people which is what you want when you're traveling by yourself. Old town main square less than a 5 minute walk from the hostel and about a 15min walk from the central train station, will definitely stay here again

You guys are amazing! I had such a great time staying in your hostel. Too bad I didn't have much time to prolong the staying. I expect you all to pay me a visit if you sometime get here in Belgrade. And I hope I'll see you next year when the spring comes. Kissez and hugz for everybody! Adios!

We booked a double room and while the room itself was good; good size etc. The beds were extremely uncomfortable, the pillow provided (if you could call it that!) was awful and the radiator was turned on full blast at all times with no way of turning it off, this meant sleeping with the window open, just to provide some air. Not good; hardly slept and ended up with a chest infection. Great Location though!

This hostel was fantastic! Great location, very clean, and secure. The best breakfast I had in a hostel (meat, cereales, jam, bread, juice, and cheese) Also I really enjoyed the free coffee all day long! The staff was awesome (paulina, karolina & michal were really friendly and helpful)
