No towels? Is this a joke? I'm not sure what style of management this is, and I'm aware that this is not even a hotel let alone a 5-star hotel, but to not even offer towels to guests, even for a small fee, is ridiculous. What am I supposed to do now, wait for myself to dry off on my... More

This hostel is okay, location is very near to the main square but about 20 minutes to train station. The room was okay, but doesnt look like there is someone who clean it on daily basis. Other things are okay but I was a little bit surprised to find they don't have kitchen. It would also be better if they... More

So we didn't plan well and did not book a hostel for Ljubljana. So we were desperate, and settled here. So the hostel was gross. We got a private room, and the bed was nasty. There was crumbs all over the bed and carpet. Looked like someone just left and it wasn't cleaned before we got in. Its very loud... More

We wanted to stay with my wife and 2 kids an overnight at Ljubljana Sept-2011 and have booked a night at perfectly located Alibi Hostel. Nice pictures in internet, nice expectations., but turns out the pictures have nothing to do with reality. The hostel is perfectly located and building is old style and nice but: surprisingly weared out rooms and... More

Hostel has the best setting zou can ask for, it is situated in the verz verz heart of everything, overlooking the river, with the entrance on the hippiest street of Ljubljana packed with charming cofffee places and winehouses. You are exactly one minute from the Main place and our room was also with nice balcony. Staff was bit slow but... More

This hostel was a disappointment. It was dirty, the facilities smelling like urine and the staff was little helpful. Despite the bad experience at the hostel Ljubljana was a wonderful city and we'll come back! (Staying at another hostel)

I'm not one of these people who picks at little things, I know a hostel is a hostel and to expect that but Alibi hostel did not provide the basic requirements I expect from a hostel. This was not conveyed in any reviews I looked at so I really felt I needed to share my experience. First impressions were quite... More

This hostel is located right on the river, in the centre of everything, which is brilliant! I stayed in an 8 dorm which was fine, it was clean and so were the sheets! There were lockers in the room so security was not a problem! The showers and bathrooms were very clean. There was 3 computers with free high speed... More

This place was god awful from the get go. I arrive, and they’ve screwed up so I have my very own 8 bed dorm! I had to sleep in a bunk bed, and then I had to move all my stuff the next day to my real room. There was no elevator, and the first day I had to haul... More

Don't expect too much from this place. It's clean enough, comfortable enough, and close to everything in Ljubljana. Of the three employees I had contact with two were good and one was impatient, unhelpful, and didn't seem to be enjoying herself very much. They have two computers to use for free. The location is excellent. Other than those two points... More
