The Hostelz.com Review
HI - Bohinjsko Jezero - YH Pod Voglom Hostel offers not only decent accommodation but also many activities such as canoeing, kayaking, and day trips (none included in the price). The staff are friendly and helpful, providing material on things to see and do around town.]
The Location
The hostel is conveniently located just by the road that surrounds Bohinj, the majestic lake that is the main attraction in the area. The most accessible way to arrive is by bus from Ljubljana or Bled, since there is a bus stop just in front of the hostel. Otherwise, the walk is quite long from the train station and you may want to get a cab, depending on how much luggage you have. It is also a bit of a walk to reach the shops and restaurants in the centre of Bohinj. If you come by car, it is simple to find and there are parking spaces.
Rooms and Bathrooms
The hostel offers four-bed mixed dorms and privates going from single to three beds, with shared bathrooms or ensuite. The dorms are small -- with bunk beds, a wardrobe, and a washbasin. There are no lockers in the room. There are two toilets (male and female) with a separate shower on each floor, which may be too few since there are about twenty rooms on each floor. Showers have a small space for changing and a few hangers on the walls, but there are no curtains, so your clothes might get wet.
Common Spaces
There is a bar and restaurant in the hostel, so they don’t provide a kitchen for the guests. In high season (July and August) they offer dinner every night at affordable prices. At other times of year dinner is occasional. There is a simple breakfast included in the price consisting of bread, cereals, and coffee. There is also a TV room in the restaurant and a computer for guests.
Summary
The hostel has a nice atmosphere and friendly staff, and it's very well located if you've come to see the lake and plan to have your meals at the hostel itself. The downside is that it doesn't have a kitchen for guests, and there are too few bathrooms for those sharing.
