Fluxus Hostel

I had a great stay at Fluxus hostel. It was great that the tea was free to take. Everything was very clean and I did not need to wait for taking a shower even though there is just 1 for 14 people. They stored my luggage for free. There was no complication with the PIN code to get in so I did not need the person at the reception (available from 10 am to 1pm).

It was an amazing experience. Vitja is an amazing person, he takes care of everything. The location of Fluxus is great, you can get everywhere in the center in just a few minutes. I felt like home, and Vitja and the other travelers made me feel like home. Thank you for everything!

Fluxus Hostel is a fascinating social experiment designed to answer one question: how much can a human endure before losing hope? Let’s begin with the legendary location. Yes, it’s great. Probably because once you’re outside, you’re free again. Everything else inside feels like a punishment for enjoying central Ljubljana. Facilities? Adorable. One toilet for about 14 people, because sharing is caring, right? One shower, so please plan your hygiene like a military operation. Miss your slot and congratulations, you’re embracing your natural scent for the day. The common area is less of a common area and more of a decorative suggestion. If one person decides to cook, everyone else must step back and watch respectfully like it’s a sacred ritual. Two people in the kitchen at once would be a safety hazard. The owner appears to treat the hostel like a side quest. I didn’t see him for two days, and when he finally appeared, it was for a solid three hours, just enough time to remind everyone that no one is actually in charge. The beds are masterpieces of acoustic engineering. If someone on the upper bunk even thinks about moving, the entire room wakes up. Nighttime turns into a symphony of metal screams and regret. Now let’s talk about hospitality. One volunteer took it upon himself to be openly racist toward an Indian guest and also toward me. Windows were shut tight at night because he felt cold. Ventilation? Fresh air? Absolutely not. When an Indian guest tried to open a window to breathe, he was yelled at and told, “This is a hostel, if you have a problem go to a 5 star hotel.” Bold words for a place charging 18 euros per night for one toilet, one shower, and emotional damage. Sleeping was nearly impossible, but wait, there’s more. One girl spent the night fighting bed bugs like she was in a survival documentary. She woke everyone up, and honestly, fair enough. Nothing builds community like collectively realizing you might be feeding insects while you sleep. This place isn’t cheap, it isn’t comfortable, and it definitely isn’t welcoming. But if you’re into overcrowding, noise, bad management, casual racism, and surprise bed bug encounters, Fluxus Hostel might just be your dream destination. For everyone else, do yourself a favor and keep walking.

Apart from the location everything about this place was absolutely horrendous. You are staying in a glorified 14 bedroom dorm. There is only 1 bathroom and 1 shower for the entire place which I’m convinced was not cleaned the entire 4 nights I was there. BEWARE the bathroom is in the lobby area and the showers were in the 6 bed dorm area. From the lobby you must walk through the 8 bed dorms to get to the 6 bed dorms. So every time you wanna leave or go to the bathroom you’re walking through that space. Same if anyone wants to take a shower, they all are coming into the 6 bed dorm to do so. The beds also felt like they were going to collapse and fall apart. The sheets and bedding were ripped up and also felt unclean. There was a terrible stench in the shower room as well as in the dorms. Mold in the showers. Saw someone working 1 time our entire stay also so they’re no help. My travel friend also found multiple bug bites all over her body after leaving this place. DO NOT STAY!!! Idc how cheap it is find another hostel!

Really nice hostel in a great location of Ljubljana! Had a well equipped kitchen, comfy beds, and big rooms that had a nice homely feel about it! Staff were great at communicating and happily helped me solve some problems I had and offering suggestions for where we can go! Overall nice hostel, would recommend.

A great hostel with a very homey feel, they also have a bike garage! Vitja is a great bloke, had some good chats about music and travelling :)

Super comfy hostel in a great spot, walking distance from downtown, rooms are a bit busy but totally fine, and the kitchen has everything you need.

The location is convenient but that is the only benefit of the hostel. The bedding and towels are old and tatty, and the bathroom (1 for 14 people) is filthy. The staff are friendly, but hardly ever there so everyone is left to their own devices. I wouldn’t recommend this hostel - rather pay extra money to stay elsewhere.
