    Someone had forgotten to send us entrance codes but the good thing was that they sent them immediately to email once we called the property. Despite looking like call center with lot of 0000’s in a number - answer was quick.

    Public parking is on the street, we got space almost opposite to entrance. And it is free after 20:00 and on Sundays.

    The shower door is a bit poorly isolated and there was some good amount of water on the bathroom floor after taking shower. Not a big deal though and could be solved with a spare towel

    Well equipped, clean and quiet apartment. Very close (literally 5 minutes) to the central train station. Easy self check-in and check-out. Fresh bathroom and actually everything else

    The location was great, very convenient if you are entering the city via bus, it is walking distance which was a bonus. The apartment was more spacious than anticipated, we were 2 couples and each had a very comfortable room with clean bedding and towels. The bathroom had all the amenities needed.

    Too hot and we could not control the heating as it was central. Toilet area was a bit small and also the bed was attached to the wall from the one side so it was not very convenient. Overall we had a good impression and would choose this again if we come back to krakow

    Very close to main station and city center. Tidy apartment with small kitchen

    Place was immaculate, could not fault it. Location was amazing was within a 5-10 minute walking reach of all facilities and the main square.Would recommend this to anyone looking for a central stay whilst in Krakow. Didn’t get any pics of the room but absolutely good vibes all round!

    I’ve stayed at this hotel a few times and loved it but this time i got another room that had a tiny bathroom, no toiletries, no couch and a smaller bed. There were also some nasty stains on the wall and the wifi didn’t work. Beside that it’s a great room for 2 people. I would be able to overlook the other bad things if the wifi worked.

    Place looks nice. Big space. Super close to everything

    As said, it is not very big (27m2), and almost half of the size is taken up by a long hallway. So not a place where you hang out for long. Cleanliness was good enough, but not excellent.

    A small appartment, but on a really great location. Just 3 min from the main train station (with direct connection to airport) on one side and the old town on the other. Small kitchen so you can make your own breakfast (also possible to have breakfast delivered). Bed and bathroom are good. Appartment is on 3rd floor, an elevator is available.

    Apartment size is quite small but if you are looking for a place to put your head its not a big deal.

    The location is close to the old city, the train station and the market. It is also very quite. The netflix in the tv was a life saver at the end of each day. The basic breakfest is ok. Not too fancy but it allowed us to prepare sandviches for later on in the day.
