    The beds were uncomfortable, needs new mattresses as they are worn out.

    Room for 4 is pretty spacious. The location is close to the train station and it’s 15 minute walk to the beach. Very nice receptionist lady. The bathroom is unisex but it’s individual shower and you can close the door. Free parking, dishes available in the kitchen, though didn’t use them. Pretty tidy.

    Convenient and good value for money for short stays

    1) The location itself is not the best one: the hostel is located basically on the parking lot with poor/no lighting at night, thus it could feel uncomfortable for single (female) travellers. 2) No towels and toiletries are provided (room with private bathroom). Although I do understand this is a hostel, at least towels should be provided considering the price (comparing to the average price of entire apartments in Gdynia). If not available, this should be clearly stated on Booking. 3) Dirty and poorly maintained shared kitchen: the hostel was almost empty (low season), but the kitchen was pretty dirty (walls, table, chairs, fridge...). It was quite surprising since the room, hostel´s entrance and hall were properly cleaned. 4) Uncomfortable and broken beds: it seems bad slats under the mattress were broken / require replacement.

    Definitely good value for money for Gdynia. Convenient location (the train station can be reached on foot in about 15 min.). Spacious triple room. Friendly receptionist and smooth check-in.

    Massive rooms and very good location (walking distance from main train station). We found it hard to find but once we did, everything went smooth. Very convenient self check in and out.

    There were no towels or smth in the room, also there were no shelves in the bathroom. Also, there was a creaky floor and bad soundproofing, we heard all neighbor's actions. But for a 1-night stay, it is a good place.

    Stuff is polite and professional.

    In general, it was ok.

    The ceilings are high hence, the echo is rather loud. More than that, the railway is close to the building that is why you will hear the whistles of trains and feel a slight vibration of the floor. The soundproof is practically absent that is why you can participate in the of your neighbors’ conversations. The window was only a skylight one that is why I couldn’t enjoy any view. Moreover, there were no blinders, so I had to become an early bird.

    I stayed in July 2022. In general, all was fine. The hostel is located conveniently: 15-minute walk from the railway station and from to the beach. There are some shops nearby; some of them work even on Sundays. The hostel is clean and the room I stayed in was spacious. The kitchen has everything necessary for cooking. Tea, coffee and sugar are available. You can use a hair-dryer, a washing machine and an iron.

    The room was with no windows, so it was very stiff inside. The hostel is very close to the railway so it's very noisy. Other guests were quite noisy too. I would't recommend to stay at this place.

    There is free coffee or tea at the kitchen. It's quite clean. The bathroom was ok too.

    There were EIGHT spiders in the bathroom. Some of them dead. Shower did not flush and sometimes neither did the toilet. There was no hand towel or kitchen towel. It was very loud in the night as trains are passing right by and there is a light right at the entrance door which blinds through the window during the night. For that amount of money (2700 PLN for 5 nights for 2 people) they could at least clean the bathroom or provide towels (which cost 10PLN to rent).

    Close to city center and the main station
