Liked: Lovely freindly staff, and the value for money on facilities was amazing--free bedlinen, free internet, free brekky! And all for about €12! I´d stay again like a shot of I went back to Krakow...and speaking of shots, I even got a free shot of raspberry vodka after brekky to fight off the -15deg temperature. Awesome stuff!

Disliked: My 10 bed dorm came directly off the common space, and has 2 glass panels in the door. There were a dozen French teenagers partying in there until the wee hours, which made sleeping kinda tricky...

Liked: What an amazing hostel. Certainly one of the very best I have ever stayed in (and have been to well over 100 so far). They go out of their way to help you have a good time and the staff always have a smile on their faces. Slavek, the owner, is a top guy - really pleasant and down to earth. I wont even bother to look at other hostels if I come to Krakow again. It is just a shame the rest of the hostels cant model themselves on this one!

Liked: Slawek and his staff are always ready to help you in everything you might need!!!Amazing place, felt like home! Great breakfast, great welcome drink! There`s a small bar in the hostel where you can enjoy a good beer and some drinks and chat!When I come back to Poland, already know where to stay!

Disliked: The only thing that is missing is a landry, but that`s even good, because we found a laundry/pub nearby, where you can drink some beers while your clothes are being washed!!!

Liked: Staff were amazing. So much local knowledge. The hostel felt like a home and you knew everyone staying there. Spontaneous group outings were always amzing thanks to Slawek and other staff. By far the best hoatel we've stayed at in Europe. Not a party hostel in itself, but the atosphere is definately condusive to a night out after the staff have dished out the local vodka.

Disliked: Ball-y sheets the only complaint. Minor!

Liked: Really nice,friendly and helpful people manage this hostel, the right place to meet people,to share experience,and to start visiting Krakow, a surprising city. Common bathrooms were cleaned everyday,free wi-fi,free use of the kitchen (they also offered us biscuits,during a rainy afternoon,spent in the common room)

Disliked: Nothing to complain with. You could find this place too much noisy (at any hour of the night) if other guests are going to have fun,shouting in the corridor...
