    A place to sleep, probably a bit to expensive for what you get but overall not bad not good.

    Bathroom really smelly and musty, wet. I think it was a bit to expensive for what is it. There are others at the same price point that would be better

    Great location, comfy bed

    I have thought of extending my stay for 3 more days. Some accidents happened on my first day. I did not witness it but some police gathered in the reception area. A man was hit and run away from the drunk gang (possibly from the floor upstairs). The gang has beaten up the boy from the reception. I don’t know if this is common, but I feel scared and insecure hearing this, so I decidede to extend my stay elsewhere. Maybe this happened randomly, however, I am travelling alone and am getting a little paranoid so thats why I left this neighbourhood.

    Good price for a cozy room. Location is fine. The building is very old and there is no lift. The staff helped me to carry the luggage, which is very kind of him. Some guests left early so I can check in earlier. The payment must be in cash, so it’s better to get it ready. Toilet is clean but is always running out of tissue papers. Staff is overall friendly and helpful. I enjoy the whole room by myself, but its better if I can have a small table to put my laptop.

    the kitchen is not always clean and the guests dont clean their dishes properly so even when you want to use something from the cupboard its not always well washed. and because of the location its almost always noisy outside, which can be a bit disturbing sometimes.

    the location is quite nice and the rooms are pretty much okay, the staff changes daily and theyre usually understanding and helpful.

    We had a very mixed experience at Hostel M. When we arrived, we wondered about the cheap price just to find out that we had only payed for one night although having booked two. We could stay the initially intended two night eventually, but it was an unpleasant situation. Then, Hostel M told booking.com that we didn't ever arrive at the property, which was the first time that happened to me. Also the price didn't seem to be what it said on booking.com, but maybe the currency change tricked me. We could only pay in cash, which seems to be very common in Belgrade in general, however, but was inconvenient.

    We were able to arrive very late (almost midnight) and were still accepted. Thank you very much for that.

    The bathroom and kitchen could have been a little cleaner. Toilet paper was often missing. The bed pillows were too big and uncomfortable to sleep on. Some guests were loud.

    The pictures don't match the actual rooms and the building itself seems run down on the outside.

    A budget stay in Belgrade.
    • Leisure trip
    • Solo traveler
    • Single Bed in 6-Bed Dormitory Room

    Bathrooms were not very clean - especially the sinks. Also it backed on to an empty corridor, almost like the bathroom is a shell (this didn't have any negative impact, but it just looked weird to look out of the bathroom window and see this). Some times the wifi was abysmal, and there are multiple networks; some worked better than others (I only found this out on my final day). It's located in a strange courtyard (up a flight of stairs in the middle), it looked very forboding, especially when I arrived very near to midnight on my first night. A fellow guest reported someone wouldn't let her sit in the courtyard - not sure who owns the place. Pillows were very cylindrical - I am used to them being flatter. Bottom bunk too short to sit upright on, so I had to use a chair. Attracting some irritating guests (who I think were long stay) and kept opening the net curtain - and then we had more mosquitos than guests! Also they rarely washed up - although I don't cook, the sink in the kitchen was always filled with either crockery or food scrapings.

    Location was quite good - very near to the bus station, with plenty of restaurants nearby, and plenty of public transport offerings to further places in town. Host was OK, and spoke a little English, and was patient during language difficulties. Also they have a member of staff there 24/7, which was very good in case anyone needed this. Price was cheap. Hostel attracted some world travellers - which made it interesting. Room overall was quite cozy.

    Average, you get what you pay for

    • Single Bed in 6-Bed Dormitory Room
    • Stayed 4 nights

    No living area really (one small table in kitchen, one small table outside) Staff controls the AC and you need to ask for it all the time (they only accept to leave it on for an hour or 2 at a time) I might have been unlucky but I had to ask for toilet paper every day Bare minimum in the kitchen to cook/prep meals (no tea towel, no microwave, no drying rack, one stove)

    In this case, it really is "you get what you pay for". The hostel is very average and they don't seem to care very much about improving but the location is great! There are big lockers in the dorms which is very handy and there are 2 sockets next to each bed with a little shelf.

    Do not stay here. Bed bugs. I found them after I left, and messaged this hostel to let them know. They rudely told me I was wrong and I'm the first to say this and that it was mosquitoes. I know this is not true because I worked in a hostel for 3 years (and saw many cases of bed bugs!) and I know it was not mosquitos. There were also other reviews about bed bugs so I know I am not the first. A further message from me went unanswered. Reception guy also was watching tv very loudly at 6am which woke us up.

    First reception guy was ok and location is ok

    The bathroom in my room had a ton of black mold behind the toilet. Whenever you flushed, a weird nasty smell would fill the room. I really didn't want to go in there.

    The location was great and the staff was very hospitable. Aside from the bathroom, it was clean.

    Unpleasant place with ovarwashed gray shaded sheets and towels. They have only a peace of smelling soap in bathroom. Very small kitchen without good facilities, uncomfortable beds with big and hard pillows. And the smell of canaluzation and old house everywhere. It's quite expensive, i hosted another place two times cheaper with much better service.

    Located close to bus station and the city center. Quiet.

    one of the receptionists (a middle-aged man with dark hair and skin) was extremely rude, disrespectful, and showed no regard for the guest. He made mistakes regarding the my gender consistantly even I'd shown him my passport, forced me to go to bed early, pushed me around, and even damaged the tv in my room. Intolerable.

    good location, nice price, the host helped me print documents
