Freedom hostel was amazing. My friend and I stayed for three nights, met tons of people, and felt very welcomed and helped by the staff! It was spacious, they provide you with locks, towels, and even beach towels upon request. Special thanks to Milos, he made the experience a 10/10!

A really good hostel. Location is amazing!! Good facilities with a kitchen and balcony and common room so it’s easy to make friends. Really enjoyed my experience here, only limitations is struggling with the AC in the room, and quite loud music at night, but it didn’t go on too late and I slept well anyways. Quite expensive for a hostel in my opinion, but that’s the nature of a tourist spot like Budva. Overall just a top quality, friendly, clean hostel.
