The location of the hostle was excellent. It was in the middle of the main street and a short walk to the old town as well as to main station. Still I was not feeling very nice in that hostle. The rooms were not very cosy and I have seen better beds before. The breakfast was very good and included only for people staying in a private room. The facilities were ok but somehow I am not sure, if I will choose this hostle again, when coming back to Warsaw.

We stayed in the "Amsterdam" Room, a private room with a sink. It was very "romantic" which was a bit awkward since it was me and my sister. Wished there was an ensuite room, but the bathroom was right down the hall. Also, there is no elevator in the building the hostel is in, and it is on the 4th floor of the building. It is on a very safe, and lively street, so great location. Be prepared for a lot of "smilies" on the signs within the hostel.

Excellent hostel, one of the best I've been to in terms of location and cleanliness. The staff helped me several times with what to see in the city and also with train bookings. Recommended!

bis darauf, dass es durch einen Seiteneingang zu erreichen war und kein schild in di richtung deutete, war es gut. Allerdings gab es ein paar treppen zu besteigen, doch auch das wurde mit humor genommen. Nettes personal, hilfsbereit und man fühlt sich wohl. morgens wird man von einem waffelduft geweckt- wie zuhause. herrlich. gutes hostel- gern wieder.

on arrival it would be good if the staff sat down and told you places to go and see and what the main attra tions are. felt like they werent really bothered and didnt particularly want to be there. the lockers are not big enough for a standard travel back pack/suitcase. the hostel was clean enough. an idea would be to maybe organise some night activities so people cna get to know eachother?? the location was great and close to the main train station.

The rooms were clean and all beds had locker associated. However, I didn't like that even though I paid a deposit for my key they expected me to turn it into front desk every time I left the hostel. I like to have my locker keys with me. Not left with someone I don't know. What's the point of a deposit?? Liked the atmosphere and the staff. Very helpful. I liked the city themes for the decor. Decent hostel. No elevator though and on top floor.

Nice Location, and hey a cab to anywhere nearby shouldn't break the bank too much. the secret garden bars across the road are great for socialising and meeting the student life of Warsaw. The kitchen is great and showers work so... all good!

The place was perfectly fine and was on a main shopping street, walking distance from the sites to see. The showers were not a problem at all and it was a chill place. The front desk people are nice and the kitchen/living area looks nice, like an apartment flat, but I never used it.

this is a really cosy, well staffed and well-located hostel. 2 small points: it can be hit and miss getting a hot shower, which is kind of important in poland. also, the advertised 8-bed dorm (sydney room) is another 10-bed room, so just book the other one.

This was a really great place to stay in. A lot of stairs, but after a couple of Vodkas you don't notice anymore :D
