2-Star Hotels in Lesser Poland, Poland

Let's start with address; difficult to find even people living there could not find it easily. The entrance is disguised by some lady selling various objects.(see photo) You have to be mind reader to find your room and bed as receptionist doesn't move her ass to show, instead mentions the wrong door with a punch code(it is obvious that it happened before as the code is still on the punch pad). The correct pad is actually on the handle of the next door that you need magnifier to find it ,if it is your first time. Then writes down 1/1/1/ which is supposed to be 1st door,1st bed and 1st locker. Skip this hostel if you are light and early sleeper as the tram line passes next door and it turns is quite curvy so the nise is quite annoying and happenes periodically. There is also noise from wooden floor and bed brames each time you move, Basically you have tiptoe to in order to make less noise. However, the major drawback is the bathroom cailities rather the lack of it only one bathroom for so many guests. I had to wait more than one hour and eventually gave up. On the plus side, it has great location only few minutes to the old town centre. It also is quite clean. For the price you pay which is about half the average hotel, next time I would definitely stay in a hotel. It is your choice.

Tram / Bus station is right outside the hotel. 3 mins walk to Carrefour convenience shop. Room for 4 is very spacious. Walking distance to nearby attraction, I.e: Weawel tower, old town and etc.

Check in was easy and quick with a friendly receptionist. They let us check in slightly earlier which was great. The room is basic, but is pretty much what I expected. One of the sheets had a large brown stain on, the cleaner was in the hallway so we asked her to change it and she did straight away which was good. We asked at reception later on that day (different receptionist) for another pillow as the one they supplied was super thin and was just told NO! Super rude! Was a 'little bit' far from the main square, however with Bolt being Really really cheap, just £2.50 to get into the main square we didnt mind at all. We were there 3 nights and the room wasn't cleaned or towels changed within that time. Breakfast was a sandwich from a local Deli, a biscuit, a yoghurt pot and an apple with a bottle of water, which you collected from reception. There was a kitchen at the end of the corridor where you could make tea and coffee, which they supplied free of charge. Over all definitely worth the money, would have liked an extra pillow, and perhaps one change of towel would have been nice.

The location was great. A fairly short walk to the old town. There is no front desk or any visible service, except the cleaner in the morning. Although the room looked nice and was quite large and had clothes hangars and a desk, it had a big problem. There was a window above the door and the hall night flickered all night. A few seconds on, a few seconds off. Even with my sleep mask, the constantly changing light was very noticeable and made it impossible to get a good night's sleep. I noticed that my room was the only one in my part of the accommodation with such a window, so I guess the other rooms would be better. They should really cover the window up. Even if they fixed the flickering, it would still be annoying to have the light go on whenever other guests go to the hall to use the bathroom or for coming in and out. The other issue was the internet. It was useable for what I needed during the trip, but it lagged at times, and I don't think it would have been suitable for a work conference call.

The hotel is easily accessible from the bus stop by a single tram or bus. You can explore the area around the hotel on foot, and for further excursions, there are bus, tram, and metro stations nearby. I was very satisfied with the breakfast, which had plenty of fruit. It was also a nice touch that leftover snacks were left in the living room for guests to enjoy. There was even a freezer, which was great for storing ice cream and frozen foods. The only downside was the unreliable Wi-Fi in the room; I often had to switch to a different room's network, which was a hassle.

Cheap room, 6 bed room, is a house that is divided into a hostel. I don't reset the floor all the time. I'm quite crowded. But it's cheap enough, forgive me. There is a convenience store next door, 20 minutes walk into town. Bathrooms are shared downstairs and upstairs. Just the overall score.

Location excellent. My flight was delayed and arrived midnight and I took the 902 bus to the city centre and stopped at stefana batorego which was just 10mins walk to hostel deco. Krakow is so safe that even walking at 1am did not pose any problems nor felt unsafe. The room itself was clean but warm (no fan or ac) in the summer. No shampoo provided in the shower so we had to keep pumping soap from the hand soap dispenser beside the bathroom sink, inconvenient. Prepare to deposit some money (euro or pln) if u need towels but they return the money to u anyway. The night receptionist she was lovely and very accommodating whilst the day male receptionist was quieter. Overall good enough stay, price was great, so will come back but bring toiletries. No elevator so you'll need to carry your luggage through the stairs.

I had a good stay at Lorf Hostel & Coffee in Krakow. The flexible self check-in was convenient for arriving late, and the location is great, within easy reach of the train station and the city centre. The very low price also makes it an excellent choice for budget travellers without sacrificing convenience. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for affordable and practical accommodation in Krakow for a night or two.

When I booked the reservation there seemed no choice for a single gender room. I thought maybe they will arrange so in fact, but I actually got a mixed gender room. This should not be blamed on the hostel of course because I did not confirm that when I checked in. So this is an advice for the future clients that if you want a single gender room, make sure to ask for one when checking in. Otherwise you may get a stinky room after waking up. Overall it’s a nice place. It’s within walkable distance to all attractions (for me). The view on the street was also very nice!

Extremely close to the train station, making travel convenient and safe. No noise issues at all when sleeping. The room was small but clean. The hotel lobby offers hot water, iced water, and even sparkling water! It's also not far to walk to the old town.
