    Good location had its downsides: people coming back from partying all night were screaming at the street, so I couldn't sleep. I could have closed the window, but I like having fresh air in the room at night. So next time I will definitely book the room facing the yard. Because the walls were so thick, I couldn't hear the neighbours at all, although the place was almost full. I'm very happy with this stay and plan to come back.

    The location of this hostel is amazing: just 2 steps from the Market square and 3 steps from a major tram node. The room was clean and had everything we needed. The common area/kitchen was comfy, sunny and well equipped. Bathrooms were very clean and there was enough of them for everyone. The man at the reception was very helpful and made sure the place is very well cleaned and ordered.

    Wifi was rather weak. Sometimes, it was a bit chilly in the room. It would have been good if they provided towels.

    The location was super, just around the corner from main square and 2 minutes from tram station. Super market Zabka was on opposite street. The whole area beautifully decorated , common bathrooms/toilets clean. We stayed in room (#13), on the 2nd floor. Spacious common kitchen/ sitting room, though we didn't use it. We could leave our luggage for some hours prior check in. The man at reception was very helpful.

    the thing is, i stayed only one night and very spontaneously. for such reason i had no towels with me and… there were no towels in the hostel! maybe you could ask for them, but i didn’t get such information. i barely could take a normal shower because of that. also, it was a bit hard to find it from outside in the dark. i lacked a mirror in the room, maybe. the bathroom is shared, so i didn’t want to go there just to do a makeup or to brush my hair. i also lacked maybe wi-fi information on the second floor. cause if you forgot to connect on the reception, you’ll have to come back to get the password. in general, i don’t think that for this money cleanliness and good location is enough…

    it was very very clean and i can say safe. the receptionist was such a sweet guy, helped me to carry my bags and was in general very friendly. the smell in the whole accommodation was very pleasant (like a pancake). the sound isolation is awesome. the location is awesome if you visit the city for walking around

    The hostel was nice and the staff were pleasant, but I was the only guest at the time so had to give estimates of when I’d be back etc so the owner knew when to be back for me which was a bit frustrating when I was travelling without a specific plan!

    There wasn’t sockets near the beds but still there were enough sockets.

    I was in a only women room and it wasn’t fully booked so it was comfortable. The room was okay and the bathroom was clean and multiple toilets and showers. I didn’t have any problems using them.

    However bed was not very confortable and bathroom a bit dirty.

    The Hotel, with entrance at the first floor of a building, with french style decoration gives you the impression of entering a motel from the 80s. Ambiant was good and personnal was very nice and helping (especially since I am not native speaker).

    Shared bathrooms and restrooms weren’t clean, but maybe the other guest are not keeping it clean. I could hear the sound from other rooms.

    The location is really great and also (maybe) the owner was really nice. For one night OK.

    It could be more clean. Good deep clean once a week would make this place perfect. For example doors to our room from both sides were almost grey/black (orginallny they supposed to be white) the could easly avoid it by cleaning it once for a while. The beds were really hard to sleep.

    Good location, friendly staff
