Great place to stay when on a budget! It is easy to navigate and get about when exploring Kraków's old town. I came for just a couple of nights as a light traveller stopping off briefly on part of a longer journey. For my purposes, this hostel was perfect and ideal! Because the hostel is staffed for limited hours, I wouldn't recommend if you have high standards for cleaning. Guests are expected to respect the property and tidy after themselves, so I recommend bringing slippers, both as a means of keeping it clean, and in the case of sharing the dorm with people wearing dirty shoes! It is cleaned daily, and the staff lady was very friendly. Facilities are basic. There is one toilet and one shower, and one small kitchen area. One thing to be aware of is that the hostel is located on the second floor of a townhouse, so I wouldn't recommend if you bring heavy luggage or have mobility issues. Tldr: Fantastic budget hostel for short visits!

Dieses Hostel war das Übelste, in dem ich jemals übernachtet habe. Im Badezimmer und in der Küche war vor Dreck kein Durchkommen. Die betten waren nicht sauber und wurden nicht frisch bezogen, wenn ein Gast gegangen war. Es gab kein Frühstück und keinen Aufenthaltsraum. Nie Wieder !!!

Oroligt mef stökiga gäster som nog var gästarbetare. Smutsigt bullrigt ingen kaffebryggare enligt inventarier. Gammal mat och andra rester i gemensamma köket. Stannade bara en natt av tre

Hostel's only pro: its good location. The rest are only "cons"; but hey, for the price, you should obviously not expect too much, so be warned!
