The Hostelz.com Review - Genuine, independent review you can trust.
Hostel Korzo is small hostel that offers excellent local atmosphere. It is a new hostel in the center of Rijeka and it is perfect for all ages. Because it is a little hostel, probably there will not be a hostel atmosphere; but anyway, it is cute. Hostel Korzo is in a great location, right in the centre of town and very close to shops, restaurants, bars, and other tourist attractions.
The Location
From the Rijeka train station, it's just ten minutes' walk to Hostel Korzo. When you walk to the hostel, you will pass the main bus station in Rijeka on your right side. Keep left and Hostel Korzo is on the left side of the very famous walking street of Korzo in Rijeka. Hostel Korzo is located between two bars on the first floor -- there are just stairs and no lift. Hostel Korzo is in the old building and it looks like an old apartment.
Rooms and Bathrooms
It is very small hostel; they have just twelve beds in two big, separate rooms (in each room are six beds). Also, there is a queen bed in the one group room. One room has a balcony with the lovely view to the street. Each bed has a storage space with a lock, and it is big enough to fit an entire carry-on. Employees really push you to use the lockers, so your items don't get mixed with other belongings. Each guest gets a clean towel. Each bed has its own light and individual power sockets. The rooms have air conditioning, which is great in the hot summer. The floor makes a lot of noise when you step on it.
They have separated bathrooms for girls and boys. The bathrooms are small, which might be a concern when more people are in the hostel. But it is very clean and has everything you might need.
Common Spaces
There is no common space other than a kitchen table with sofa, so people hang out in the kitchen or in rooms. The hostel does not offer breakfast, but the kitchen facilities are very good and clean; the equipment is a little bit old, but still it's fine. You can use the kitchen 7 a.m. to midnight -- you can prepare your morning breakfast and late lunch or early dinner.
Summary
Hostel Korzo is run by a family; during the low seasons, just the family members work as employees, and in the summer high seasons, more young people work there as well. Inside of the building on the door is a telephone number just in case nobody is in the hostel behind the reception desk (even though the reception is open twenty-four hours). You can leave your stuff in the hostel and go around (you get keys from the hostel). The hostel is located above a bar, and you can hear the loud music, so if you are planning to catch some sleep then bring your own earplugs. There is no parking space very close to the hostel.
