06 October 2010 Daniiel would recommend this property

Liked: Where to begin...the price is amazing. Not only is it cheap but you get FREE breakfast (which is not crap - Nesquik is included!) and a free welcome drinks.The location is outstanding, better than most of the expensive upmarket places around town,The facilities are pretty good, nothing to complain about as they are well maintained.There is always something on in the evening and the staff are more than helpful in recommending somewhere to eat/drinkThe staff were my personal highlight - extremely welcoming and friendly, they did their best to make EVERYONE feel welcome, not cliquey like other hostels I have stayed in. Sabina has her shisha out most nights which she offers around for free and she really created a fun atmosphere in the bar. The fancy dress is amazing - I wore costumes ranging from a wedding dress to spider man and danced for hours like a mental, and then she came out with us after! Top place, I would recommend this place to everyone!

Disliked: Not a single thing.

12 September 2010 Laura would recommend this property

Liked: The staff were really friendly and it was a short walk to both the bus/train station and the old town, very good location. Also the price was really good.

Disliked: I did not dislike anything particularly about the hsotel. But was deliberately awoken on the first two nights by other guests, who obviously had been sampling the delights of the alcohol on offer. So I was really tired for the first two days of my trip.

01 September 2010 Raphael would recommend this property

Liked: This is the best hostel I stayed at during my hole month in europe, go there if you go to Krakow!!!! The location is pretty good, about 7 to 10 minutes of walk from the main market square. You have also free breakfast, free table football, free pool table, cheap beer and vodka at the bar (opened 24h by the way!!), the place is clean, the kitchen weel equiped. They also have the best staff ever! Aaron is a great bartender and that kind of guy who will take you to the best restaurants and clubs (if he is not working 22hs a day!!). He showed me the best places to go and was really helpfull. Asia (pronunced Asha) is also very nice, always smiling and gets you deals on everything. This hostel should be rated 100%!!!!!

08 April 2010 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: This was my first hostel experience and I really enjoyed my stay. Friendly staff, relaxed atmosphere, brilliant facilities and at a reasonable price. The 24 hour breakfast and bar was a huge plus. I found that this hostel was catered more towards stag do's and large groups of party goers, so if your looking for quiet hostel look somewhere else!
