The only negative thing we experienced was the train passing by every five minutes or so it seemed. Everything else was just great. The staff was friendly. And there were never too many people living there at the same time. We highly recommend it.

Seemed like a great place for meeting other backpackers, but as a couple it felt a little too noisy. Be aware that it's located right next to the railway.

Helpful staff and a nice location. Passing trains did wake me during the night. This was the only negative.

This is by far one of the best hostels I've stayed in, the hostel is communist themed - complete with Lenin quotes on the bunks and communist murals on the walls - strange, but hilarious! All of the staff were really nice and helpful as they were keen to recommend places they liked in Krakow as well as the usual tourist sights and even took us out a few times (as well, one of the girls I travelled with lost her passport on the way to Krakow and really helped out with that). The bar and organised events make this hostel a good place to socialise and meet other travellers, and the rooms were clean and spacious with comfortable beds and secure lockers.

-- free drink when you arrive from the bar -- free coffee -- free wireless -- free laundry it really seemed like the hostel wasn't in it for the money but for the guests. anything that you would really need or that would really make your stay worthwhile, they provided for free -- because they know you need it. other things they charged for, but it was very minimal and relatively close to cost. just made it feel a lot more like home.

This has been my favourite hostel so far on my travels. Cool decor, friendly people, great staff, big shower in my female dorm, lots of hot water. I attended the sunday bbq and got free dinner and 3 free vodka shots! The staff are lovely, very helpful and the hostel itself is so close to the jewish quarter and not too far from the centre of town, i'm coming back!
