HÔTEL NEBODER
Hotel located 5 minutes walk from downtown offering spacious and comfortable rooms with vintage design.
Located 5 minutes walk from the city center, this hotel, which dates back to 1939, has long been requisitioned for international soldiers on mission. Restored in 2007, the tower, which is now classified as a national architectural heritage, would still require renovations (elevator, in particular). If the exterior is not very engaging, the rooms are spacious, with a vintage design in Formica. The best part is the magnificent view from the upper floors. On one side the city, the canal and the sea, on the other the mountain and the Trsat district.

NEHOTEL !!!! NEBIDER U RIJECI
We went to Rijeka solely for the concert at Pogon Kulture and wanted to book a hotel closest to it - this one being literally 50m away. With the benefit of a hindsight, it might not have been the brightest idea we had that day, and we really should have read some reviews before booking it. ;)
Upon entering, there was a slight whiff of old moist wood near the reception, but I let it slide by as it was a rainy day, and I thought I was imagining things. Another sign I chose to ignore were six clocks above the reception, displaying various time zones and literally none of them working, with just a second hand ticking in one place ever so slightly. After being handed the key on a keychain of the size and weight of a GMO modified carrot, we stepped into an industrially looking elevator. By any stretch of imagination, I am not talking about modern industrial design - it was a kind of an elevator you'd expect to see in a factory underground warehouse storage. The entire look-and-feel is a very 1984 ex-Yugoslavia with no money whatsoever spent on upkeep and maintenance in the meantime.
The room door on the fifth floor were wonky, you had to push it in order to be able to turn the key and unlock it, and it provided no more soundproofing than a curtain would (similar to the windows). One of the lights in the room wasn't working, the TV set was a tad bit bigger than a laptop display and it was cold as hell once we entered the room. On the bright side, the room was so small that the AC managed to heat it up rather quickly once it started heating after blowing cold air for about 10 minutes. The bathroom was actually a narrow hallway created by building a wall through the entire length of the room (but leaving 5cm of free space once it reached windows), and it gave a proper feeling of an abatoir with a full set of oldschool white glossy tiles put everywhere but the ceiling. Despite the room being advertised as an antiallergic one, my throat and nose started itching once I put my head to the pillow. It could have just been a coincidence, although I somehow doubt it. ;)
We didn't even make it to the breakfast as we received a message from the pair we travelled with, strongly advising us to pack and search food somewhere else. They went down to breakfast only to find nearly cold eggs, hideous coffee and literally two types of salami - one of which obviously went bad but was served on the table nevertheless.
If I were to try and find anything positive, it would be a relatively clean abatoir bathroom, a garage (albeit without a reservation option so you have to hope there will be a space available for you) and the immediate vicinity of a concert venue as the sole reason for us even considering the hotel. Oh, apart from that, it was waaaaay overpriced with all of the above premium comodities being offered at a mere 112,50€ price tag.
So, in short, you'd probably be better off by simply putting your seat down and catching some shuteye in your car.
