The staff was incredibly helpful and friendly. Though it may be hard to find at first, it really is nice and comfy. The breakfast was simply amazing for the price we paid. You won't regret it.

The Hostel needs to be better sign posted, when we arrived at the building we had trouble hearing what level the hostel was located, and then as we started walking up the stairs it was so dark that we couldn't see any signs of the hostel and it took us about 20mins to find it in a building that was dark and not very inviting! The staff were nice when we saw them but they are not on sight all the time. The rooms were large and clean and comfortable.

Thank you very much for this comment. We will try to better sign post it and make it clear for everyone. All details about hostel location are available on the signboard located next to the main door to the building (flat № 64, 3rd floor). To turn on the lights on the corridors/stairway you need to use gleaming red switches located on the walls.

The hostel has a great location and the rooms, while small, are clean. The under-bed locker with lock is a nice extra. The toilets could have been a little cleaner and I found the kitchen area a little small, however this would not prevent me from booking this hostel again.

Thank you for your comment. Staff is around during our reception working hours, do you really need us around the clock?

Good place, friendly staff and healthy breakfast. The staff even gave us some money for the bus when we were just one coin short to get back to the airport. Only the floor is annoying; very squeaky wood which makes a lot of noise if people move around at night. Other then that: perfect place!

Lovely hostel, very helpful and friendly staff. Really nice cozy vibe. Just make sure you know exactly where in the building the hostel is, we got a bit lost in the corridors when we first arrived.

New hostel (less than a year old) so everything is in great shape (showers were excellent) despite being in a sketchy-looking building. Great location, free breakfast, big lockers in the rooms, and the staff was incredibly helpful (the owner would sit down with us at breakfast every day and provide tips for the day). The only criticism I have is that the staff tends to clear out after their "hours" so if you need anything, you need to call them (or wait until they're back the next day).

Cheap, great location, great staff, excellent value for money and the most impressive included breakfast I've seen yet at a hostel.

This was definitely the best hostel where I have ever stayed. Marcin (the owner) is a great host and the hostel itself is clean and very well located.

Great Hostel! I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at Fest Hostel. It is a charming place located near the old town, which is great location. They offer tea and coffee anytime of the day which was superb. The beds were very comfortable and the owner was very helpful in giving suggestions and directions of how to get places. I would stay here again!

The Hostel is excelent. When I entered I was a little afraid of what the hostel would be, but since I opened the door and spent some hours there, all my doubts vanished. Very secure and the hostel owners are very friendly and eager to help you at all times. Thank you for the nice stay and all the tips! The best of luck!! Julio.

When I first entered the building where the hostel was located, I felt a bit scared too...but it turned out to be a funny experience, once I found out that the hostel was a really good one! Good location, clean rooms and facilities, good breakfast, big lockers, and the owner was so friendly and helpful! I had a really nice stay here. Thank you.
