    The location of the hostel is excellent, right next to the beautiful old town of Krakow. The hostel is clean. My room had a comfortable double bed. I arrived quite late, before 10pm and had no problem getting the key from the smart box, the instructions were clear.

    No frills place. Cannot beat location and price. Bathrooms on the first floor are segregated, the one on the ground floor is not. Stayed in a room facing the main road and was able to sleep well despite the traffic. A lot of rooms on each floor so there can be a wait for the bathrooms in the morning. Would stay there again.

    It is VERY LOUD OUTSIDE and the noise gets in. That nice convenient tram runs through the night, outside your window (if assigned to a room by the entrance). Drunk and/or high people making a racket, these will be immediately outside if you're near the entrance. I don't speak Polish (my bad, sorry to any Polish people reading) but if I did, I'd have probably been privy to some enlightening conversations. No kitchen facilities. Your fridge is the window ledge outside your window if it's cold weather. No kettle in room. I didn't mind too much, but I'm a solo traveller and a night owl with a diet coke addiction and the ability to run on chocolate. I could charge my phone and lock my valuables in the room although if I carried anything expensive I'd use the station lockers.

    Very basic, it's literally just a bed in a room. There is nothing else in the room, at all. Oh there's a bedside light, and numerous sockets. Location is good, close to old town, in fact I could see the exterior of the old town (it's a very well defined compact physical centre of the city) from my window. Trams run outside, and there are e scooters available pretty much opposite (Bolt, Lime, dott) if you don't want to navigate public transport. Toilets and showers are available - in the communal area up a flight of stairs. They were clean. The building itself seems to be some form of repurposed office block or institution whereby the rooms have been gutted and beds placed in the empty spaces. Very, very cheap. A private space for pretty much bed in a dorm money. It's basically a hostel minus any facilities apart from a space to get cleaned up, and a bit of privacy vs using a dorm room.

    It was quite noisy but we brought ear plugs with us

    The location is fantastic, just opposite the park that surrounds the old town. It is also just a short walk to the train station. Near shops and restaurants. Excellent value for money. The hostel building used to be a bank so somewhat of a novelty. The room was clean and although it was a very cold weekend with temperatures below zero the room was always warm. Over the four days of our stay there were always plenty of toilet rolls in the bathrooms. Instructions for self-check-in were really easy to follow

    Cheap private room with shared bathroom near the center of Krakow, good value but dont expect luxury

    The shared bathroom situation, I don't know how many other people were using it, but by the morning there was no toilet paper left! Also there didn't seem to be any staff or security checking the doors, which might be a good idea, especially during high season.

    The building itself is pretty cool, its like a office building repurposed into a hotel/hostel. The room was plenty large enough, and even though my window faced the street I didn't notice any noise (with the window closed). Also the private room was nearly the same price as a dorm bed in a hostel, so you cant beat that.

    Make sure you've got a pair of ear plugs. I used my ear plugs over my stay, because the window was facing the Old City and trams were quite frequent and it was overall quite loud. And even inside of the building someone was constantly making noise. I wouldn't be able to sleep without my earplugs though. Luckily I had a great sleep and great stay.

    The value for money is great. You get a private room in the city centre for a cheap price. The room and the facilities are quite clean and nice, toilets and shower are comfortable.

    Not enough toilet paper during the night. Maybe someone could refill it? Coat hooks would also be very helpful in rooms

    First of all you get what you pay for:) So this Hostel has a great value. Basic rooms and shared toilets/ showers - enough for everyone. Late check out for additional 10€. Awesome location right next to the old town and walking distance to central train station

    The shared bathroom has less amount of toilets. Also they're not very clean which can be expected based on amount of people staying there. Many times there was no toilet paper owning to binder of people

    You get to live in your own separate room in the middle of Krakow main City. Everything is so close and can be reached in no time.

    Everything was fine except for one detail, and it ruined the experience: the bad smell of an “old flat.” There is a lot of unprocessed wooden furniture, and it stinks really badly. I had to keep the windows open for several hours to reduce the smell a bit - and yeah, it’s winter outside.

    Thin walls, you can basically hear everything outside the room. The hostel has 2 floors, our room was in the 1st while the showers were only on the 2nd floor. No kitchenette or even a kettle available.

    Great location in the old town district. The room was spacious with comfortable beds, we booked a 2 double bed room. Definitely Good value for money.
