“Great place to recharge the body while travelling”
I booked a double room as i was traveling on my own, it overlooks the river and is so calming. The owners are two wonderful people and i will definitely be back. The location is great to get away from the bustle of Bled. It was great meeting so many other great people traveling in different directions. i had my motorcycle and parking in the garage is available for bikers. There were 2 other bikes there.

“Amazing hostel and hosts, highly recommend!”
Beautiful location, lots of lounges and hammocks that you’re able to use along with a fire pit. Both Katja and Ryan were the loveliest hosts, going above and beyond to make you feel comfortable and looked after. Met some great people here too, no bad vibes at all

“Thoroughly enjoyed my stay and the hospitality was fantastic”
Ryan and Kat so helpful lot of positive energy from them. They go over and beyond to help people get comfortable throughout their stay. The place is really big and well maintained. It’s as described, unlike some other listing where pictures can be a bit deceptive. Breakfast was lovely and plenty of parking around the place. Vintgar Gorge 5 mins walk and 25 mins to Bled.

First of all, the hosts are the loveliest people! They made us feel welcomed and at ease from the very beginning:) also, the place itself is located at a beautiful spot just by the river. You have fireplace & barbecue there as well to use. Bathroom is shared but you must realise that when you make a booking. Our dog was also welcomed and had a snack waiting for her every morning which was lovely!

“Excellent”
Amazing hosts who go above and beyond for all guests. Great facilities for a hostel with washing machine and equipped kitchen. Beautiful outdoor space overlooking the river with access for a dip. Parking. Balcony. Best hostel I’ve stayed in so far and been to a few.

This was definitely the best hostel I’ve stayed at and would certainly come again!! Ryan was so welcoming and gave me a full map tour, house tour and rundown on arrival which was super helpful! The facilities were great, very clean, organised and had everything I needed. Not to mention the location was amazing, with hammocks and seating set up by the river - the perfect place to enjoy a coffee and a book! They also provided a free breakfast every morning with great food such as homemade banana bread, eggs, toast, cereal, fruit, vegetables, coffee, tea, juice, etc! Katija and Ryan also offer rides for 5€ which can be very handy! My only initial hesitation I had when booking this hostel was the distance from town, however I found it wasn’t an issue at all once I was there and the bus system was easy. And the walk from the bus stop to the hostel was so beautiful anyway! Thank you so much Ryan and Katija for a lovely stay!!😊

“Very peaceful — perfect for a stay near Lake Bled without being in the overcrowded town itself.”
A wonderful place where you truly feel at home! Katya and Ryan are amazing hosts, always available and happy to help. Don’t hesitate to ask them anything — their tips for buses, hikes, and local activities are super helpful. Two bikes are available for rent at just €5 each, which is a great deal, and both are in excellent condition. The setting is beautiful: a small river runs through the garden, ideal for cooling off after a long hike. There are hammocks and lounge chairs to relax in, and a cozy campfire in the evening — perfect for meeting other travelers. There’s also a very well-equipped kitchen available, perfect if you enjoy cooking during your stay. I truly recommend this place — it was a highlight of our trip! P.S. If you can stay more than one night, go for it! Everyone who only stays one night ends up wishing they had stayed longer
