Great budget stay in Krakow
Lovely, welcoming hostel in the Kazimierz district. Well situated for lots of good bars and restaurants. The hostel is clean, bright and comfortable and the comms before arrival to arrange airport transport and self check-in was top notch. Have stayed before and will stay again! Great value

An excellent hostel- actually much closer to a hotel. I had a wonderful stay. Great breakfast and very helpful staff. It was a bit of a walk to the Old Town, but the area was very quiet with restaurants and stores close by.

Beautiful hostel, friendly desk staff. However, noisy French party next to my room ruined my sleep.

Ich war vollauf zufrieden, es war extremst sauber und das Personal war derart freundlich! Als ich völlig übermüdet nach einer langen Nacht dort ankam, machten sie es sogar möglich, dass ich etwas früher Einchecken konnte. Das Zimmer war groß und schön! Matratzen jetzt nicht so der Knaller, ziemlich dünn, aber kann man mit leben wenn man nicht grad rückenprobleme o.ä. hat. Lage hat mir gut gefallen, weil es etwas außerhalb des ganzen Trubels ist u man aber innerhalb von 2 fussminuten in Kazimierz ist mit all seinen Cafés etc. Zum „Zentrum“ (Altstadt) ist es etwas weiter, ich bin alles gelaufen, aber es sind schon so 20 Minuten. Das einzige: ich würde Oropax mitbringen, die Wände sind extrem hellhörig. Alles in allem top!

Great stay!
I'm glad I stayed here in Krakow, this was in a good location (a short walk from the Old Town) and it was very clean and secure. I appreciated the free tea/coffee and nearby restaurants/shops, and helpful staff. Comfortable, good night sleep! One thing I would say is it's not a social place but if you're not looking for that, or if you're with friends/family, not a problem!

kanum, paris

Hôtel de charme accueillant et sympathique
Bien que mis dans la catégorie des auberges de jeunesse, cet établissement n'a rien à envier à des hôtels mieux classés, confort, calme, propreté... Seul inconvénient, le parking payant et très surveillé dans la rue devant l'hôtel équipé d' un horodateur non prévu pour des touristes temps de stationnement et moyen de paiement incompatible pour un non-polonais.
