One night stay.
Clean room. Good location. Close to old town. Shower and sink in room was good.
Staff was very helpful as I left my luggage on the premises before and after checking in.
Laundry/washer availability was great.
Breakfast provided was very generous.
Maybe add more outlets closer to beds so guests can charge their electronics.

Liked the convenient location for the Old Town, and the fact that friendly staff were on site 24 hours a day. Even though it was so close to the centre, there was very little noise. Continental breakfast, included in the price, had plenty of choice, including very nice soft cheese.
The only tiny drawback was that breakfast was served on the third floor and there were no lifts. This would not suit people with certain mobility issues.

You get what you expect; it is a simple dorm, filled with people who rather spend money on having fun than on sleeping. But for that, I believe this is the best of the lot.

Hotel asequible si no eres un viajero exigente
Hotel muy centrico, correcto, si no eres muy exigente. Desayuno justito para un tentenpie. Aseos limpios y habitaciones correctas. Personal joven amable, habla ingles y aguno en buen castellano. A mis hijos les he parecido muy bien a mi me ha faltado algunas comodidades pero por 25€ x dia esta ok.

He visitado Cracovia y me a parecido una bonita ciudad, donde todavía se constata la influencia del comunismo . La visita los campos de Auschwich y Birquenaw son la constatación del horror en estado puro y un recordatorio para gereraciones futuras de algo que no puede suceder de nuevo.

Ottimo rapporto qualità prezzo
Ho soggiornato in questo hotel con 3 amici, la posizione é perfetta per girare la città e il rapporto qualità prezzo è ottimo. Note negative sono la colazione scarsa e la pulizia della camera.
Lo consiglio per ragazzi che vogliono spendere poco

Good for party people
Stayed there 2 nights in a private room. Great location with great deal. Room was clean and very quiet at first night. I really like it, but the 2nd night was just terrible!!! The people from next door was so loudly singing and dancing after midnight but no one from the hotel didn’t do anything. I called the hotel but no one answered. They finally calmed down but they or other group started making noise at 3am... the wall is very thin so could hear all of them just disgusting
