Good Bye Lenin Revolution Krakow - Hostel

Remember this review is based on a budget traveler. Price and Location is the reason we booked this place. We (me and my partner) managed to book a room with a private bathroom and we got a massive room with 4 single beds and I wasn't complaining about space :). This room was all for ourselves. Hot and very fast shower only you have to hold the shower. Breakfast minimal but you can get full - Toast, cereal, tea, coffee, chocolate spread, jams, ham, and salad. The kitchen staff was good. Luggage storage if you want to drop your bags and go out in town after checkout. The location is only 6 mins walk from the old town. There are good cheap eats around with a Carrefour(supermarket) next to the hostel so you will not go hungry. Try the kebab place called Kebab Pasja on Karmelica road only 2 mins from the hostel. This kebab was for only 12 zloty (less than 3 quid) and I couldn't finish it and it was delicious. Good bars/pubs in the old town to eat and drink and if you are a footy fan you can go to the Bull Pub. Beer prices are reasonable compared to the British pound.

Remember, if you are on a budget this is the best place for you because of location, price and you get free breakfast. However, the cons: 1 - The hostel building is old derelict from outside. You enter the building and open the door and there is that pungent smell of smoke and god knows what. Disgusting. 2 - One fo the staff at the reception was really nice and another one was like she didn't want you there, as if we disturbed her Facebook or Instagram scrolling. She was a bit rude and no quality of customer engagement. Poor attitude. 3 - Room was big with private bathroom but the shower was hanging on the knob, toilet felt like wont clean no matter how much you flush. 4 - Kitchen is on 3rd floor and it had some smell. My girlfriend didnt want to go for breakfast there as it is dark and dingy. . But 2nd day we did go for breakfast and it was ok.
