I liked the quirky layout and decor of the hostel as well as inclusion of breakfast. Plenty of stairs to climb so not for people with mobility problems.

Przyjazny hostel, czysty i oryginalnie urządzony.
Lokalizacja hostelu wspaniale ułatwia zwiedzanie miasta, a jednocześnie jest usytuowany w spokojnym miejscu. Pokój rodzinny sprawdził się znakomicie.

нормальный хостел
Нормальный хостел, с большим общим пространством. Номер для двоих сделан в бывшей подъездной лестнице дома-хрущевки. Необычно, идея хорошая, но реализация не лучшая.

Ładny wystrój i życzliwa obsługa. Niekrępująca atmosfera. Dość cicho i spokojnie nocą, można się wyspać.
