The two ladies from the staff are really nice and helpfull. I wasn't expecting that kind of hostel and I was finally happy to stay there

Stayed in April 2024

Shower is on the bottom floor near the reception so you have to walk down there with all your stuff and then back up.

Although it is called a hostel you have your own private room, it is just the kitchen/toilet/shower facilities that are shared. Free wifi has a good connection. Staff are really friendly and will show you anything you need, just bear in mind their English is not great. Location is good and near everything you need/want (although Borjomi itself is pretty small). Interior has an old-fashioned look which is charming, not in a run-down sense. Value for money is unbelievable, would recommend to everyone visiting Borjomi.

Uncomfortable bed

Great location, old soviet style

In general, this is an emergency housing, with broken windows, peeling plaster and mold on the ceiling. On cool days it can get quite cold as in the common corridor there are no glass in the windows and in some rooms too. The room is worth it if you check in alone. At any time, they can report that the room is booked and ask to be moved. Including moving to a room with a neighbor, saying that this is actually a hostel and asking for more and pay extra for it. There is only one socket in the room, regardless of the number of beds. The mattresses on the beds are from Soviet times, so the dents, smells and comfort are appropriate. There is no internet in some of the rooms, Wi-Fi simply does not reach them. By the way, smoking is allowed in the rooms, so if you are "lucky" and you live in a room with a door/doors to the neighboring room/rooms, then all the smoke, as well as all the sounds, will be in your room. Upon check-in, they can offer any random room, regardless of which one you actually booked. Have you booked a room with a balcony? Here is a room with a window to the common corridor (where, by the way, the light will be on at night and shine directly into your room). The cleanliness of the toilet is highly dependent on the ability of your neighbors to hit the target. Men often go to the women's toilet, the effect is appropriate. The floor in the toilet becomes very slippery if it gets wet, and this happens very often. You have to go to the cleaners for toilet paper, basically they don’t monitor its presence. The paper itself is the cheapest and toughest. There is no hot water in the sink in the toilet as a class. There is one shower, on the first floor for all residents of the hostel. The attitude of the staff to visitors is highly dependent on how the stars converged on that day. Turning away and not answering your polite questions is considered normal here.

Location Price if you live alone Fast Wi-Fi if you're lucky to live near a router The presence of a kitchen and a kettle (but without dishes, you need to ask) The place is worth it only if you are a lover of "vintage" and if you get a room with a balcony. But 90% of the rooms are without balconies. If the description says that the room has a balcony, it most likely means a shared balcony where the neighbors come to smoke.

Filthiest men's toilets I've ever seen. Not sure they've had a thorough cleaning since Stalin was around. There's one sit-down toilet in the second building.

Loved this place. Perfect location, right on the river and middle of the tourist district. Room was basic but comfortable, has a nice desk for working. Good wifi but coverage depends on the room. Wonderful balcony overlooking the river, great for working or just relaxing. The staff is a group of kindly women, though they speak no English at all. I ended up extending 4 nights I loved the place so much. Even in July, room never felt hot.

Toilets are awful: no light, no water, cannot close the door. Another toilet was pure awfulness and extremely dirty. Some windows cannot be closed and curtains don't cover windows so privacy is pretty much low.

Good bed, cool architecture, helpful staffs though no English is spoken.

Great sanatorium with Soviet artifacts) Rooms with decorations from different eras. Wonderful kind staff, thanks to them. The location is awesome - the sanatorium is right on the river, a few minutes to the spring with mineral water, a couple more minutes and you're in the main park of Borjomi with a gorgeous forest, the same river and sulphur pools.

Shower was a long way from my room (500m, through many rooms and one floor down). Showers and toilets are in terrible condition. The whole place seems to not have been renovated ever and the building is very old. Prepare for mold, holes in doors, failing locks, walls loosing paint etc. Only one electric socket in a room for 4 people and it doesn't seem to be safe. There is a nice baclony, but all the furniture on it haven't been cleaned for months. You sit once and your clothes are black from dust.

Cheap, central location

Slice of the past! Very unique. Very friendly hosts.

Stayed in June 2022

shared bathroom little iffy, but the mid-range room looked nice with showers and all

The most kind, familiar and understanding staff. I was treated both as a guest and as a friend. Spacious and private rooms, some with sink and a workdesk. all set in a theatrical environment of a forgotten past. also big balcony with view over the river and bridges.
