Great Hostel, nice helpfull staff, waitresses seemed unexperianced.
there is a bus stop for the hostel, so no need to walk with heavy luggage. It's 15-20 min pleasant walk on a footpath, along the lake to commercial centre for atm, post office, supermarket and tourist info.
Staff:
Great, friendly, helpful, fluent English.
Location:
The location is pretty great but in the middle the south shore it can be about 40 mins walk either direction to other restaurants and maybe 1hr30 to savica and hikes up towards triglav. So accommodation at the west end may be better for some hikes.
However there are regular buses that stop right outside the hostel.
Food:
Optional dinner - lots of food, cooked well, good value, bit dependant on the day's menu: had one weekday meal and weekend meal.
Propper breakfast included in the price and great location!
Reception ladies were extremely courteous and provided relevant and useful information. Security should have an "N/A" rating because the environs probably do not feature thieves, i.e. not just the hostel but the entire town is safe, which means there was hardly a reason to be overly concerned about theft or break-ins. Quiet place = good location. The building is rather frumpy, but that seems to be the norm for hostels globally.
Very good hostel, but the closest food facility is at 2 km... :-s
