If you need a calm environment to sleep I would definately NOT recommend this Hostel for a trip in summer as you have to open the windows to get fresh air and ad as the hostel is situated in front of a Tram station that is frequented by trains every 5 minutes or so from early in the morning til midnight or so.

I enjoyed the low prices and accommodating staff; however, my complaint is with regard to the additional services and the unclear description for the airport transportation. Even though the website said “round trip” I was only provided with one-way trip and was later charged 5times more than regular price (fee $25). I do not appreciate this and would have preferred a written fee on the website.

Super comfortable

Very comfortable and relaxed spot. Beds were awesome. Like sleeping on a cloud. Staff was super nice and friendly. The people staying there were nice. Definitely seemed like more remote workers and Polish people who were in town between stints working abroad vs. tourists and young partiers. Which I personally preferred as I was looking for a calm & comfortable base from which to explore vs. a party hostel. Close to the airport bus in a section of town just outside of the old town. Felt like a more real and less touristy part of krakow while still being within easy reach of all the tourist stuff.

Nice quiet hostel about 5 minutes walk from Market Square. Facilities were good (although I didnt make use of the kitchen area). Beds were comfy and the locker was a nice addition. This was my first ever solo travel trip - would consider this a great hostel to start in.

Quality in the price - 1/5 stars

I was in an 8 bed dorm and there were far too many beds for the space. 2 bunks were stacked in front of another on either side. There was a tiny path in the middle where you could walk. Furthermore the lockers could only fit a small backpack so everyone’s massive backpacks were in the path and you were tripping to get to your bed. There was a heatwave and most other rooms got a fan but mines was too small to even fit a fan! Bed was very uncomfortable and came out with a bad back after 3 days. The bathrooms are strange as they have a window everyone can see into if you’re coming out of the shower if people are hanging out on the balcony, some blindes are needed! The staff were lovely but considering the price, it was adequate for sleeping If you’re willing to overlook the problems.

New hostel, give it a go!

The hostel is new, just a few minutes walk into the old town, easy access from the train station too. very powerful shower, tho the shower cube is a bit small. room is spacious but mattress and pillow are the cheapest of quality. air circulation in bedroom isn't good so u have to open the window at night which mean bad traffic noise :( overall it was a ice stay
