Amazing hostel, great location. The staff was very friendly and so helpful all the time. They had cool events like vodka tasting and free sangria. Rooms were nice, lots of showers and bathrooms. Great balcony for smoking. They have an acoustic guitar you can play too! Definitely stay here if your in krakow.

Amazing! We ended up coming into Poland a night earlier than expected and they were able to accomodate our needs! It was a wonderful place to stay having travelled for 60 hours before our arrival. Staff were incredibly friendly and it was a cozy and "home-y" atmosphere! We would definitely come back!

Yola, who was at reception when we arrived was fantastic from start to finish! She had great energy and was always ready to help. The whole place was just fantastic from start to finish. What a great crew! In fact, the tours in general were amazing in Krakow, and everyone really seemed to know where to go, how to get there and who to talk to.

The hostel is really well located. The staff it's really helpful. It's a really clean place. The only thing that I didn't like was th duche, they were small, but still, not a big problem. But still a good place to rest. It wasn't an excited place at the time we were there.

One of the best hostels I've ever been to. Really good atmosphere and fun activities on top of the price, no complaints about the toilets or dorms. Location just beside Main Market Square in the centre of town. If I had to pick a downside it would be that it's a third floor with only staris, but that seems minor compared to the rest of advantages.

Everything was just great! Great staff, good location, awesome events! The only "but" I'd say was the heating system, it was a little bit cold on the rooms! But not really a problem taking the other great stuff into considaration!

The staff was very kind. The other residents we had were pretty loud, so if you want to go out and have fun this is definitely the place to be. But, if you have to wake up at 6 AM the next morning, their quiet hours aren't enforced effectively. The facilities were very nice and the hostel was quite close to the Krakow City Center. It was a good place to stay!

The hostel is right off the main market square and a club is located underneath the hostel so there is always loud music until 4am. That noise wasn't a big deal and can be drowned out with earplugs. It is a small hostel so you can hear everything. There was supposed to be quiet hours between 11pm and 6am but that did not occur. Each night loud drunk people came in and were extremely loud. The staff was apologetic but didn't try to stop it the next night.

Hostel staff are wicked, and there were free activities or foods every night, from vodka tastings to pizza nights to a chocolate fondue fountain. Couldn't ask for more

This hostel is a party for hard clubbers. Noisy at night, unclean bathrooms, and creepy drunkards in the halls included. I would not recommend it if you are looking for a place to sleep. Other than that, the staff was nice, but pretty useless.

I haven´t seen the waffels everybody was talking about...that´s a pity the activities they organise are very nice, but unfortunately they were not well-visited, maybe because it was winter? about the cleaniness...i saw quite soms mold in the bathrooms
