Hostel Nina

Mostar


This popular homestay hostel is run by an obliging English-speaking woman whose husband is a former bridge-jumper who pioneered and still runs Hercegovina day tours (€30) and war tours sharing firsthand accounts of the siege (€15). There's a little patch of garden, a shared kitchen and free transfers from the bus and train stations.
