I had a good stay overall. The hotel is clean and the rooms are comfortable with modern amenities. The staff was friendly and went out of their way to help, which I truly appreciated. On the downside, the breakfast could have offered more variety, and there was some noise from a barking dog outside my room, but it didn't ruin my experience.

I had a lovely stay at the hotel, which was very clean and featured modern amenities. The room was comfortable and quiet, with a nice balcony, but there was some noise from a barking dog outside. The staff was extremely friendly and went above and beyond to assist us. The location was perfect for my needs, close to the Physics Faculty and convenient for other attractions. Although the breakfast was varied and delicious, I wish there had been more traditional options. Overall, it offered great value for money.

The hotel offers a straightforward stay with basic yet clean rooms, but I found the atmosphere a bit outdated. The staff was genuinely friendly and went out of their way to assist me with various needs. While the location is convenient for business, it's a bit removed from the main attractions of Krakow. The breakfast was enjoyable, with fresh options, but the dining choices could be expanded for a better experience.

While the hotel is not right in the city center, public transport made it easy to access the old town of Krakow. It was convenient enough for my business trip needs, but might not be the best choice for those wanting to explore the city thoroughly.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The location was quite convenient with good public transport options to get into the city, but I found the rooms could use some improvement in cleanliness and odor. The staff, however, were exceptional and made my stay much more enjoyable. The breakfast was plentiful and delicious, making for a nice start to my day.

I had a decent stay overall. The rooms were clean and comfortable, but they felt a bit cramped for five people. On the plus side, the location was great for my needs and the staff were extremely helpful at all times. However, it could have been better if the dining options were more varied, and I did notice some noise from a barking dog outside. For a last-minute booking, the price was reasonable though.

I had a decent stay at this hotel, which is located a little outside the center, but with good transport links, it was easy to get to the old town. The rooms were spacious and clean, and the staff was friendly and kind. However, during peak tourist times, the hotel felt a bit crowded, and the dining options left a lot to be desired with limited variety. Overall, it was a fair value for money.

The hotel has some great perks like a friendly staff and a convenient location near the Physics Faculty, which was perfect for my needs. The rooms are clean, and having a private balcony was a big plus. However, the rooms felt a bit cramped for three people, especially when the hotel was full of tourists. While the hotel isn’t in the city center, public transport makes it easy to explore the area.
