Asrama di Zagreb

Bittersweet stay at Speeka. Bad weather first 2 days and few mayor sites still closed due to earthquake in 2020. Hostel is located at 3-lanes main street so prepare for the traffic almost 24/7. Windows are old so don't stop the noise. 1st two nights I slept in room number 9 and there were two other cranky beds making so much noise with every move made. Then I moved to nr 6 and it was much better. Staying there you need to be also prepared for coffee, tea and hot water shortages. And those shabby walls make an impression that the owner doesn't want to invest too much in renovation. Good thing is that hostel is in walking distance from the old town and everything is actually very closed. People are nice and helpful, thanks to the lady at the reception I managed to print a ticket for 2Cellos - without it I wouldn't enter cause they don't have scanners to read a ticket on smartphone screen. But the concert itself was also sad, maybe cause of those strings sound. I don't know what happened but most likely will visit Zagreb in a few years again and stay at some better place.

The best thing about this hostel is the price. Staff were nice and cooperative. Location (in terms of distance to attractions) is also good as it is a few minutes walk of the main square, While the location of the hostel itself to be reached is confusing as the hostel is located inside a closed compound-like building/blocks with the only entry/exit from the compound is far in front of the reception of the hostel with no signs in the main road/street or the exterior of the compound to show the direction to the hostel! Disliked: I stayed in a 4-bed room. My room had a 2 separate beds and 1 bunk bed. My bed was the upper bunk bed and unlike the rest of the beds, I didn't have my own power outlet near to my head and I had to use the one below the level of my bed. This was annoying and I couldn't use my mobile while charging it because the power slot was far. Men toilets were OK but the showers were not! There was no single wall hanger/hook to hang your towel and clothes while taking a shower and no shelf to keep your toiletries on while showering! Only one small split AC unit in the room which was not effective in that very hot weather of July 2022!

Good location close to the main square and large shady park. It's a very busy street but this room was on the back side and quiet, they may not even have any rooms on the street side. This was a private room with a double bed and shared bath. Shared bath was small where the sink is but shower is roomy. Always was clean, and shared by only a couple of rooms. Didn't see the dorm rooms. There are also private rooms with private bath offered. At the time of this visit an organized breakfast wasn't offered but cold cereal and fruit was available 24/7 in the common kitchen, and instant coffee 24/7. The espresso machine required a staff member to operate and the desk isn't staffed except during the day generally. There's a sitting area with couch and chair and a dining area with tables and chairs. There was no air conditioner in this room and it was unusually hot in Zagreb during the stay. At night with the windows open it was comfortable, but very warm otherwise in the room during the day. Very nice owners.

What began as a suspiciously underpriced, gorgeously designed, epicentrically located property with heart and smiles for days...turned into a psychotic, abusive nightmare, like something straight out of Rosemary’s Baby. Never in all my days, in all the hundreds of properties and thousands of nights in everything from backpacker hostels to five-star suites, have I been subjected not simply to bad service (fixable) but outright and unrepentant hostility, harassment and torment by the staff. Unbelievable. As the gentleman and professional many know me to be, I in good faith detailed the infractions, called for a GM meeting, recommended simple solutions, had multiple follow-up meetings, and presumed the offending micro-tyrants would be disciplined and neutralized. They weren’t. It only got worse. And worse still. Think, stalking, door slamming, man-handling my iPad (verboten), shorting guest change when paying by cash in the bar (witnessed multiple times), having aggressive security called for eating in an otherwise public area five minutes beyond a theretofore unknown “rule,” asking me repeated and pointedly “how long I would be staying...” you get the idea. So, in the end, I cancelled two weeks of reservations (which would have been expanded to 6+) and protested with my feet. I left. A day out and I STILL feel emotionally winded, unsure of what I just witnessed. All I know is that if my behavior to a client or guest even approached this, I’d be – and should be – terminated on the spot. This was not the decision of management. But maybe it’s me. Maybe this is Croatia’s version of adventure travel. Not enough to make me fall out of love with Zagreb...but close. Interesting world.

Very nice place. With many tourists points nearby, basically in a walkable distance. Clean and nice service. Even we just stay for one night, but we will definitely choose it again if we come here again.

It was all great. The location even by Uber was not so expensive, and on my way back to the airport I could took without any problem public transportation. Crew was great, location great, there's a bar two mins from there. Also CBD bar was amazing. Only kitchen could get better:)

ÉVITER, JUYEZ. Le monsieur de l’accueil m’a volé 40€ et je pense que tout le monde est dans la combine. Explication : J’arrive le matin avec mes affaires à l’auberge, je vais à l’accueil je lui demande s’il y a un local à bagages. Il me dit oui mais la caution c’est 45€ moi choqué je lui repose la question et me dis oui oui c’est 45€. Je rentre de mon après-midi et je reviens à l’accueil. Celui qui m’a volé n’était plus là ( heureusement pour lui). Il y avait deux personnes, je lui tant les clés et ne me rend que 5€. Je lui ai dit : j’ai donné un billet de 50€ et il m’a rendu un billet de 5€ en me disant que la caution était de 45€ pour les clés du casier ( local bagage). Il l’appelle et le VOLEUR DIT que j’ai donné 10€. Ils regardent les vidéos de surveillance, ils voyaient bien que j’ai donné 50€ et qu’il ne m’a rendu QUE 5€. Me disent qu’ils ne trouvent pas l’argent et qu’ils n’ont pas d’argent. (Je ne comprends pas que dans une auberge on n’a pas de monnaie). Un peu plus tard, je leurs dis que je vais voir la police, ils me disent maintenant que sur la vidéo de surveillance on ne voit pas le billet alors qu’au début il m’avait dit : oui on le voit que vous avez demandé 50€. Auberge à éviter vraiment. À la fin j’ai payé ma nuit même pas de dédommagement pour les causes d’un employé (ou l’équipes) incompétent, menteur et voleur. Même pas d’excuses ce qui m’a prouvé que tout le monde était dans la combine, une petite excuse ne fait de mal à personne quand on est en tord surtout soi disent être l’auberge la plus ancienne de Zagreb. 60€ la nuit (la nuit + le vol d’un employé qui est sous leurs responsabilités) et moi qui croyais faire des économies c’est raté. Quand tu es jeune, se faire voler 40€ ça fait très mal. Je peux vous dire, je sais aller dans des auberges et ils m’ont jamais demandé une caution pour des clés de casier. Si vous avez un employé responsable qui fait son travail c’est 5€ de caution. Mais bon faut avoir de la chance où être entouré ( moi, j’étais toute seule). De plus dans ma chambre il n’y a pas de prise à côté du lit, vraiment point négative quand tu es dans un dortoir. Monsieur (ou l’équipes) qui m’a volé j’espère du plus profond de mon âme que vous allez mal dormir.

We only stayed two days but I wished we stayed more ! The hostel was great, the room clean, the mood really nice and most importantly the staff was extremely friendly !! I needed a computer for an emergency and the lady at the reception kindly let me use hers 🤩🤩. The breakfast is free in the morning and generous (eggs, sausages etc) and there’s a bunch of events each night in the hostel’s common room (that is big & cozy). We arrived early in the morning (6am) and even if we couldn’t access our room until 3pm, the staff let us hang out in the common room and same thing after our check out at 11 am while waiting our train at 1am… I would highly recommend this hostel ! It is close to everything (Zagreb is a small city) and has everything you need (kitchen etc) Thanks again for the stay ! Bisous from France 🇫🇷

This is by far the best hostel I have stayed in...ever. We had a private room and it was very nice, clean and very up to date... The room had water, keddel and different teas. Good bed as well The breakfast was amazing - very fresh and Asian inspired. The pool was definitely very special at a hostel...and it was very nice. Service was tip-top and the staff was always helpful and flexible. I traveled with my teenager son - we both enjoyed the stay.
