    ***ONLY SOLO TRAVELERS - NO COUPLES NO GROUP OF FRIENDS
    ***We are a small social hostel (18 beds) so we only accept solo travelers, where instantly you will be able to make friends.
    *** WE ARE NOT A PARTY HOSTEL OR HEAVY DRINKING PLACE, so we are not looking for an entertainer or pub crawl leader.

    Our hostel is located inside our four-generation family home, which was destroyed during the last war in the 1990s. We worked really hard to renovate the house that has a special place in our hearts, so it's not an any ordinary hostel.
    Your duties will include:
    Help with housekeeping (changing beds, cleaning common areas, corridors, bathrooms)
    Reception duties - no nights shifts or early mornings
    Socializing with guests

    We look forward to having you in sunny Mostar

  • What else ...

    What else ...

    Mostar is a beautiful town located in the Hercegovina region. We are blessed with an amazing climate with over 200 sunny days a year, which means most days you can plan something nice. Around the city, there are 5–6 rivers that can be easily reached, and there are at least 4–5 nice hikes. Our capital, Sarajevo, is two and a half hours away, and you can take one of the most beautiful train rides there and back for less than 10 euros. This box is a little too short for all my ideas and recommendations, so come and you won't leave disappointed.
