Zen Hostel

Well, where do I start? So... It seems like to be a structural problem for hostels in cluj, to not have a reception. Anyhow, this hostel even underperformed in relation. The guy who was leading me to my room was giving me the code for my room, yes, but somehow forgot to tell me the code for the building door. That was inconvenient, but not deciding. What actually was, were the beds. Bunk beds in its quality more like a nightmare instead of a place to rest. The restroom has not been cleaned for quite some time. Additionally the shower was flooding in split seconds, because noone actually ever cleaned it. It was moldy and disgusting. And toilet paper seemed to be luxury. But it's near to the centre.😃

Shocking doesn’t do this justice. I turned up with a fully paid booking to be greeted by a heavily drunk man who was more interested in his cigarette than checking me in. I was then told that the hostel was full despite having paid for a bed, and was shown to what looked like a personal room to sleep on the floor. When contact with the boss was made there was no response to the phone or messages. The only positive here was a full refund was given but I would not recommend anyone to book or try to stay here. Awful

This place is a mess. The place smells so bad and looks dirty. The place is full with bad bugs, I just got a serious bite. The beds are very uncomfortable, the access to the bunk beds are hard, and not safe. No privacy curtain around the beds. I do not recomand this hostel. The photos from the site are not real.

stayed one night and had a good experience. room was very clean, bathroom had toilet paper and good shower, plus theres a kitchen downstairs to cook in :)

Easily the worst hostel I've ever stayed at. Avoid at all costs. Worst staff, worst rooms, worst hygiene, worst experience. This place should be closed and condemned.

They are fra*ud. They don’t provide anything they offered. And they did not refund my money from booking. I hope you bu*rn alive.

I just read the reviews and I can't believe it. Guys, if you encounter bed bugs and dirt you should immediately call OPC ( customer protection)!!!

**Review for Zen Hostel, Cluj:** ⭐☆☆☆☆ Zen Hostel in Cluj is the ultimate *bed bug buffet*! The real zen experience is the nightly feast of itchy bites, while the owner gaslights you into thinking you're imagining it. Add to that: - **Cheap Price**: You get what you pay for, and here it's bugs and bad vibes. - **Toilet Smell**: The restroom experience is a special kind of unpleasant. For a memorable stay where you can enjoy free bed bug bites and a bad toilet smell, Zen Hostel is your spot. Bugs and odor included—Zen Hostel: where the bugs are more Zen than you’ll ever be!
