Guest Ratings & Reviews
Lobagola was a splendid choice for our stay in Zagreb. The friendly hosts made us feel welcomed right from the start, and the cleanliness of the rooms was impressive. Breakfast was a highlight with its delicious spread. However, finding the B&B can be a bit tricky without a navigation aid, and parking might require some planning.
I wanted to love my stay, but it wasn't quite what I expected. The location has its challenges, especially with parking and access. While the staff was accommodating, the room was cramped and there were some significant issues with amenities. Overall, it may appeal to younger travelers but didn't suit my family's needs.
My stay at Lobogola was overall fantastic, with a wonderful mix of comfort and helpfulness from the staff. I loved the clean, beautifully decorated rooms and the amazing breakfast options that really set the tone for the day. The location was convenient for getting around Zagreb, but I did encounter some minor inconveniences with late check-in. Overall, it's a delightful place I would revisit without hesitation.
We had a lovely experience staying at Lobagola. The staff went above and beyond to make sure we felt at home, and we truly enjoyed our cozy, clean room. However, the noise from the communal areas made mornings a bit hectic, especially with shared bathrooms. The proximity to attractions was fantastic, but be prepared for some stairs when bringing up luggage.
