Hostel Bongo

Hostel Bongo was a place that made my unique days in Belgrade even more special. I found them through a blog written for Tripadvisor's UK page. After reading the reviews on Booking.com and Tripadvisor, I decided to make a reservation. When I arrived at the hostel, I was greeted by a very sweet Italian woman (I am so sorry that I forgot her name), who gave me all the information about the hostel. During this time, we also had a chat, and she was truly a good person. All the staff, volunteers, and guests at the hostel were also very kind. Duchan, Madison, Moncho, the Italian lady whose name I forgot, and the lady who owns a very cute dog named Bojo (if I'm not mistaken). They were all very polite and helpful people. The guests were also very kind; Mike, Alex, and Mr. Satoru, whom I learned had been staying there for a long time, were very nice and kind people. Some days, I wanted to just stay in the hostel and chat with these people, but I couldn't because my time was limited. The hostel is also very close to Knez Mihailova Street, so it's in a very central location. The common areas in the hostel are quite sufficient. There is a kitchen for you to prepare your meals, but since I tried the food in Belgrade, I almost never used the kitchen. However, since the kitchen is very close to the seating area, it would be good for everyone's comfort to cook only mildly scented meals. Everyone there paid attention to this, which was very thoughtful. Each room has air conditioning, and they provide you with lockers. There is also a very cute garden to spend time in. If I had to say something negative about the hostel, it would be that the bathrooms need to be cleaned a bit more frequently. But don't let this mislead you, the bathrooms are quite clean, it's just that I have an obsessive attitude about this. My entire experience in Belgrade was unique, and this hostel was one of the most important factors that made this experience special. I loved the dog named Bojo, but I think he didn't like me much :( If you are someone who can adapt to the beautiful atmosphere here and won't disrupt the spirit of the place, I definitely recommend making a reservation.
