Liked: Very clean, well maintained. Very quiet neighborhood. Not quite in the city center, but a short tram ride away.

Disliked: A bit chilly in the rooms even with heating all the way up. Wifi worked well in the common area but not so much in my room.

Liked: The owner, Aga, is such a sweetheart - she's very helpful and informative as a hostel-manager, but will also just chill with you in the kitchen and chat over a cup of tea. The hostel itself has a very home-y feel, the rooms are cozy, and the small breakfast each morning is wonderful. Definitely my favorite hostel.

Disliked: You do have to take a short tram ride to reach the city center, but it's nice that the hostel is in a quieter area of the city.

Liked: The hostel (It´s actually more like a mixture between a hostel and a B&B) is very clean. The staff is very friendly and very helpful. I stayed in a single room which has got lots of charme and even its own balcony. There is easy access to the old town centre by tram. (It takes about 10 minutes. Or you can also walk, which takes about 20 minutes. I actually walked most of the time to the old town because it is really a nice riverside walk.) All in all, I can absolutely recommend this hostel, especially for those who want to get a good night´s sleep.

Liked: The owner for starters was absolutely lovely, welcoming and generous. The breakfast was by far the best we've had after 2 months of travelling and the dorm we stayed in was beautifully decorated and cosy. In general the whole hostel was like a home from home and i couldn't fault the place.

Disliked: i didnt. it's not dead central - you couldn't walk from the train station - but by no means should that stop anyone booking as the tram is very quick and easy to use.

Liked: Wonderful welcome, clean and well equipped room with excellent bathroom. Brilliant breakfasts. Staff friendly and helpful, went that extra mile to make our stay good in every way.

Disliked: The only (very minor) point is that it is slightly out of the centre of the city, however it is very close to the tram service which is frequent and cheap

Liked: The staff, particularly Aga, were amazing. She out of her way to help. And they have free delicious pizza on Sunday nights.

Disliked: The distance made walking a chore to get into and back from the city - at least 30 minutes - and the buses were fairly useless unless you wanted to spend tons of time waiting.

Liked: This is definitely the best hostel in Krakow. It's true that it's a little far from the city center, but it's in a beautiful house on a gorgeous street full of flowering gardens. The staff is incredibly nice and helpful, the building is secure (there's free luggage storage and even your own locked drawer in the dorm room), and the hostel was impeccably clean during my stay -- the staff cleans every morning, and very thoroughly.I've stayed in a lot of hostels in Poland and in Europe, and this is by far the one at which I've had the best experience.

Disliked: Customer left no negative feedback.

Liked: A great little hostel. Its small and cozy allowing you to get to know other travellers. The hosts were a wealth of knowledge. Its close to the city but not within so you get a quiet nights rest but its quite easy to get out to pubs and clubs.

Disliked: Trent left no negative feedback.
