After visiting Hotel Alem this month only the best to people who work there and the location is also in a very peacefull part of Sarajevo. It is quite a bargin to sleep there and rooms are big and comfortable. Even that we got there very late a very friendly staff gave us all directions where to go and what to see in Sarajevo. 
Thank you for the good times we had there.

Nice place

I paid and stayed two nights (19-21May) in Hotel Alem.

First, the rooms, the cafeteria, and other facility were covered with dirt and dust, several dead spiders were found on my room floor...(did they ever clean up? the hotel management didnt seem to have a heart to run the hotel well..)

Second, the room, the corridor, the lobby were heavily 'smoked'...you are lucky if you are a heavy smoker coz you may enjoy cigarette virtually everywhere from pillow to blanket for FREE!

Third, I saw (with my own eyes!) hookers/prostitutes walking around corridor at night.I felt unsafe and so disturbed.

Last and the WORST, on my second day, after checking out , I asked the frontdesk if I may leave my backpack there for me to pick up later that evening...the staff said okay. When I returned, another staff said, ''you cannot go! you cannot get back your luggage until paying an extra 20euro!'' (the room price was only 50euro)
I asked why, the staff said because 'a girl' visited your room last night..I said NO! It didnt happen!! there must be a mistake for another room! The hotel alem frontdesk refused to let me get back my backpack. It is my own property! I said I would call the police/policija! Then, the hotel alem staff said you could pay 10euro, then you could go...the frontdesk was a big guy..twice as my weight..and the taxi was waiting for me outside for 10 minutes already. I paid 10 euro. 

What Hotel Alem had been doing were criminal acts-- 1)theft/robbery(deprived of my rights to access to my own property-backpack), and 2)blackmailing (taken my luaggage to demand money)

From what I had experienced--Hotel Alem was an unscrupulous merchant conducting criminal activities blackmailing and robbing guests.

I hope my experience may be shared with other travellers and make them more informed of my review to compare with other users's reviews before booking.

unsafe and unscrupulous hotel

We stayed in a spacious cleaned room in the newer part of the hotel. Staff was wery friendly and helpful! Breakfast was very good. Only had problems with warm water in the shower, it would constantly change to cold. Everything else was very good!

Nice little hotel!

We stayed here for a week just before the busy season.... 

Pros:
- lovely staff (very helpful and friendly)
- comfortable bed 
- daily room clean 
- great breakfasts + coffee
- supermarket 2 minute walk
- restaurant 2 minute walk 
- 20 minute walk to Sarajevo City Centre

Cons:
- room was dark 
- shower makes a mess (but is great at the same time)

A taxi from the hotel to the old town or city Centre will cost you about 5 marks which is extremely affordable!

Make sure to get an invoice from the hotel stating you have stayed there so you don't come into any hassles with border police. 



Lovely staff, comfortable room!

Room: Spacious and clean rooms, comfortable bed. Nice bathroom.
Brakfast: tasty (jam, butter, ham, cheese, milk, omlette, hotdog, yogurt, coffee, juice, musli), but I expected it to be more versatile
Flaw: It was a bit far from city center, we had to take cab (one ride to city center approximately 5km=2.5 eur)
