    Located in a convenient spot, just a short walk from the Old Town and Market Square, this hostel is perfect for exploring the city on foot. the staff were super friendly and accommodating, offering tea and coffee, as well as helpful advice on the best places to visit around the city. the rooms were clean and comfortable, with plenty of space to move around in.

    The beds could have been a bit more comfortable, which made it a bit difficult to sleep at night.

    The staff was helpful and welcoming. the hostel location was superb, just a few steps from the city center and a lovely park. They also offered free tea and coffee, which was a nice touch.

    The hostel was quite small and cramped, and the spiral staircase was difficult to navigate with luggage. the facilities were a bit outdated, and the air didn't feel very fresh.

    The location of this hotel is absolutely fantastic. It is so close to the main square and the old center of the city, making it incredibly convenient to explore all the attractions and amenities that Krakow has to offer. Additionally, the hotel is not far from the main square, so you won't have to worry about a long walk back after a day of sightseeing.

    All was ok.

    The hostel is well located, clean, and has a friendly staff. Vlada, in particular, was incredibly helpful during both check-in and check-out, going above and beyond to assist with my bags. Highly recommend staying here.

    Felt well taken care of and had no complaints whatsoever.

    The hostel was conveniently located near the main attractions of the city, which made it easy for us to visit them quickly. We could enjoy romantic walks in the nearby park, and we loved the instant coffee and tea that was available for free when we wanted to spend some time relaxing in the common area. , the bedding was so soft, and the shower had everything we needed to feel pampered.

    The hostel was a bit small and outdated. The facilities needed some improvements that would make the stay more comfortable.

    Affordable and convenient location near the city center. The room was comfortable, with a small TV and necessary amenities. Despite being close to the reception and bathroom, noise levels were manageable.
