Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
It was a great stay, however I wish I had curtains on the beds, so when someone who is sleeping does not get woke by inconsiderate guests (flicking on the lights was uncool at 2am)
This was not worth the cheap price. Only one shower for everyone so we waited very long. Bathroom garbages overflowing and garbage on the counters for days. Rooms have zero ventilation so it gets very hot so you have no choice but to leave the window open, but the bus stop is right in front of the windows so it is extremely noisy. All night. There was not one point where it quieted down a bit. Even with the window open it still got very hot, and it's not even summer yet. Floors are the squeakiest loudest floors I've ever heard and walls are so thin you hear every little thing.
The place is very clean. Location is strategic. If I come to Krakow Poland again; I will stay here.

Limited comfort
Ended up with great people in the dorm. The hostel could, however, improve a lot of things. The bunkbeds felt like they would collapse when the one on top moved around. Limited space to change clothes etc, only possible in the bathrooms/toilets. 2 bathrooms with toilets and one singel toilet for all 8 rooms eith 6 beds in each. Worth the stay, yes. Staying more nights than 1, no.
