Solid Krakow Stay

convenient locationgenerous assortmentcomfortable bed
I found the location quite convenient for accessing the main square and various transport options. Breakfast included a generous assortment of choices. I especially appreciated the variety. The room was spacious, and the beds were comfortable for a restful sleep.
I did notice the room still used a traditional key instead of a card. The bathroom could benefit from some updates. I found the shower quite small.

Okay Stay, Some Issues

cute staffgreat breakfasteasy accessnoisy roomloud fridgethin curtains
The staff was totally cute. Breakfast was great! I didn't spend much time in the room. The location has easy access to many restaurants and bars! I would defo stay again.
The room was very noisy because it faced the main street! The whole building vibrated when a tram went past. It happened often! The fridge in the room was also too loud and the curtains were thin. It didn't cover the window!
