HI Hostel Zadar — Hotel in Grad Zadar

This is a place where your needs will be met or not according your expectations. The room was cleaned, but not thoroughly. There was dust on the ground under the bunks. The lamp and the small shelves on the wall were not clean, and there were dead mosquitoes inside. On the other hand, the bedding was very clean and smelt nice, as did the towels. The bathroom was clean in general but no hair dryer. The Wi-Fi was not stable and the connection was lost many times. You only have one hour for breakfast, which is not worth what you paid, and there are no vegan options. There was only sliced cheese, meat, jam, honey, cream and butter in small packages, as well as lots of sliced bread and two different types of cereal. There was a coffee machine and a water dispenser. There is a very clean toilet in the restaurant. There is also a garden where you can sit and hang out with friends. There is a small bar in the garden where you can buy cheap drinks. The location is good for two different beaches, some restaurants and markets but far from the city centre. PS: there is a 1.5€ hidden fee as welcome stamp under terms and condition page you need to pay...

The hostel has a great location, near one of the best beaches in Zadar. There was an affordable nice restaurant, bank and grocery store all nearby. The staff was very friendly and helpful :). However, the internet didn’t work throughout our whole stay (4 nights) and the rooms only had 1 key per room and no lockers (you could store your stuff in a locker in the reception). There is no kitchen for the guests (but when I asked for a spoon in the evening the lady from reception called someone with the key to get me one 🫶🏽, also there is a microwave, water boiler, FRIDGE and water in the dining room available 24/7) and the breakfast was OK. The reception was only from 8am to 12pm. Also there is a hidden fee that is not mentioned in booking, you are charged for an “international hostels” membership which is 3€ It’s not expensive, but when booking hostels and apartments in zadar the difference in price is per euro. We booked this because it was the cheapest but there was actually another option that was literally the 3 euro difference and I...

Location is perfect If you wanna stay at the beach. To Borik and Diklo beach you just have to walk 5 to 10 minutes. To the city centre you can walk, 20 or 30 minutes, or take the bus. Number 5 or 8 will bring you in about ten minutes to the centre. Bathroom and Room was clean. Facilities simple and basic. For two nights definitely okay. The bed was very simple. The linen had spots and holes in it and it was squeaking by every move. You could here everything on the floor the whole building is very clairaudient especially when you are on the same floor with a group of 13 and 14 year old teenagers. |I was traveling alone and in off season maybe you have better luck during summer holidays :-) the staff was alright but they seemed stressed by every question I had. ||The WIFI was horrible! Every ten minutes it kicks you out and you have to connect again. One evening I couldn't even connect at all. ||Staying for 2 nights was okay especially when you want to have a cheap accommodation right...
