I really liked the position, you could fall asleep by hearing the river. It was so peaceful and lovely. I liked the terraces and the staff. Breakfast was good, a bit crowded if you arrive early.

I really liked my stay. I thought the automatic contactless lockers were okay, but a guy had a problem where his locker was stuck at night and none from the hostel was there. Mine did not have any problems though.

This place is amazing so as the owner of this place she makes you feel comfortable and the hostel is extremely clean and organized just in the heart of center and 5 mins away to train station. They have a clean kitchen with good breakfast and they have a huge TV room and good two big balconies so chill out there. I would highly recommend this place so far this is the best in Poland.

Themed rooms were nice. I like the TV/game room. It was a nice place to chill. Receptionists were generally helpful and nice. The balconies were nice, but it was too cold to use them.

I heard the breakfast was "good," but it was just bread, jam and cereal (and instant coffee or tea). I would call that the bare minimum. If they offered scrambled eggs, cheese or meat, that would be "good" in my opinion.

It's a great hostel, it's not the first time I've stayed here, everything is fine. The staff is very friendly and speaks English. The location is very convenient in a quiet place, close to shops, restaurants, museums and the central station. Spacious kitchen and place to relax, breakfast is good, has many options. I recommend this hostel for a stay.

As for me the only disadvantage is a rather late breakfast time, as for me the beginning at 8:30 is very late, but for those who like to sleep for a long time it will not be a problem) Otherwise, everything is very good.

Very nice hostel, staying for the second time The hostel is located in the old town, 10 minutes from the central station, there are many shops nearby. The location is very nice and quiet, the hostel is also very vibe. It has several terraces. The shower and toilet are in the rooms, which are very cozy, and the bathroom has everything you need, a big plus is that there are towels. Every morning from 8:30 to 10:30, the kitchen has breakfast for all guests of the hostel, which is conveniently packaged in personal containers. I really liked the breakfast with its large assortment and quality. The kitchen is large, bright, and comfortable, and there is also an entertainment area combined with the kitchen. I would also add that the staff at this hostel speaks English. I recommend this hostel for visiting.

I would recommend three points to improve the eye 1. Change the time of breakfast, because the start at 8:30 is very late, at least make it from 7:30 as in many hostels. 2. Add curtains to the beds so that you can close them and not disturb other residents. 3. For some reason, the socket near my bed did not work, although other sockets in the room worked.

Amazing location, so close to everything. Room was luminous with big window. Staff was nice. I would definitely recommend for a solo traveller, it felt safe and was near everything I wanted to see.

Room somewhat lacked in cleanliness and could be updated. The bath was quite awkward in shape so I had to sit to shower but this wasn’t an issue for me. The breakfast is free which is great but there are limited options, good for budget travellers! Keep in mind for some rooms you will need to go up a few flights of stairs and this may be an issue for some.

The hostel felt very personal. For example, the reception staff would walk each guest to their room and show them everything around. The hostel is located in a very peaceful and quite area and can be easily reached from the train station. The roomm was nice and spacious and the bathroom clean at all times. The facilities also included a lovely terrace facing the river.

The beds lacked privacy because there were no curtains. Also the door and the lockers played a tune when opening, which caused a lot of disturbance to people in the room. For example, if someone was returning to bed late at night or leaving early in the morning, it was almost impossible to not wake up your neighbours. In addition, there were some spiders and spider web around the room.

The hostel was clean and well taken care of, there is an outdoor area with tables and chairs where you can sit and relax or eat your breakfast. The breakfast is pre portioned and includes sliced meat, cheese and vegetables. There is also cereal and toast with butter, jam, etc. I stayed in a 4 room dorm and the bunk beds were nice and built into the wall with your room key card locking your cabinet. I enjoyed my stay, the staff was also quite nice and helpful. :)

I would say the only thing is that it was a hot in the room as there is no air conditioning and as a result there was little air movement.
