Every now and then a hostel earns its place on a shortlist by simply doing the basics very well, Love Dubrovnik Hostel, in Ploce, is one of those. Geographically speaking it's barely a stroll from the centre of Dubrovnik, and the strong location rating in guest reviews backs that up. On the comfort side things are modest and the read from guests has been uneven, no fireworks, just the basics handled. On the social side of things, an outdoor terrace that earns its keep on warmer days is what most guests end up mentioning. With well over 1,500 reviews on the books and a solid average, the reception from guests does most of the talking here. Reputation has held up across enough stays to mean something. Expect to pay something in the region of €61 a night, a strong-value entry on the board, especially when stacked against nearby alternatives. All told, Love Dubrovnik Hostel reads as one of those Dubrovnik addresses worth lining up against the obvious choices before booking.
