Main Square Hostel — Hotel in City of Zagreb

If you’re someone (especially a woman) who cares about their safety - DO NOT STAY HERE me and my friend had traveled to Zagreb from Budapest and once we checked into our room I was notified of an AirTag tracking us the whole journey and was pretty accurately at our location. After thoroughly searching through our bags and not finding any AirTags, we approached the reception desk where we explained the situation to the man at the desk. I have never felt such condescension and lack of compassion when speak to someone about a worry of personal safety. We mentioned that another member of the hostel had checked in just before us that we believed was on the same route and us and perhaps he had his own AirTag to track his belongings. To eliminate all possibilities, we asked the receptionist to contact this person on our behalf to confirm if this was the case. The receptionist seemed dismissive that this was something to worry about and therefor reluctant to contact said person. However after some us reiterating our worries for safety, he finally gave in to contact the person however made to effort to take details from us to contact and updated us on the outcome of the situation, however I left my email and asked if I could be updated though it has been a good few days since the incident and have received nothing. To make matters worse later in the evening, we could hear this reception worker mocking us and the situation to someone else hanging about the reception area. To conclude, the hostel itself wasn’t too bad - the beds were okay and seemed clean enough, bathrooms were nothing special and one of the lockers in our room didn’t even have a lock so wasn’t usable. The building itself is also in a bit of a sketchy building with no working lift and not much lighting - the building is actually quite difficult to find in fact....

In a capsule which was like my own "little contained-space" (but a nice-sized one really with no shortage of where to put small personal items around the mattress inside the capsule), it was a comfortable stay at this hostel where the breakfast was also a "good-enough one" I would say to get the day started and where also in the vicinity are the small-sized food place for like wok-fried meals ("right beside" the building with this place) and the mini-supermarket but really with quite a variety of food & miscellaneous items (just across the small street in front & slightly "to the left" from the hostel building).||And at the old-town area of Upper Town (with charming heritage buildings on like just a "slightly-higher ground" with gentle slopes & not-too-difficult stairways), it's a nicely-convenient location of this hostel "right at the bottom" of the area & pretty much "right beside" the sizeable Ban Jelacic Square (with beautiful buildings all around & also a number of "city-tram lines" on one side) from which it's also just like a 15-to-20-minute walk to those sites a little outside the old-town area (the spacious lawn with a "king-like equestrian statue" in front of the Train Station, the Botanical Garden for a pleasant walk around although not a very sizeable one & the National Theater in like a sprawling shape on a big city-block with also a...

Rooms were clean and spacious with bed linen provided, with towels available to rent. Each bed was assigned a locker. The bathrooms could be much better; (1) only two showers in the women’s, again only two toilet cubicles, (2) women’s showers were only a hose with no attachment to the wall, so washing my hair took much longer!, (3) the privacy paint on the dividers is peeling and it is more than possible to see me through the wall in multiple areas, (4) a man came in whilst I was showering and knew I was in there, maybe the two men’s cubicles were being used and wanted to chance it, but it seemed like something that went on and went unchallenged. It was lucky that I decided to change inside the shower cubicle otherwise I would have walked out to a man in the women’s shower rooms. The free breakfast that provided contains cereals, meats and fruit, but the kitchen they host breakfast in is by no means clean. We picked up four different bowls that still had food in them from the previous night, so we decided against it. I thought that the location was good for being central, but in the building itself is a dingy and dark corner for the entrance. I thought the building smelled like drains most of the time too. The staff were really friendly and approachable however. It’s definitely more a social hostel, so if you don’t mind noise...
