10-15 min walk to the old town. Also the tram stop is only 100 m. or so. In a silent location. Clean rooms. Very friendly and smiling staff. Totally contented, highly recommended!

Freedom Hostel, Krakow
Lovely hostel, basic but very good value. Interesting site as it was built on a former Gestapo prison and so has an informative museum in the basement which is free of charge to enter.

Great price and good area!
Everything you want from a hostel and great that they have twin rooms, clean rooms and a good bathroom. The beds a little on the hard side but thats all i would could complain about given the price is very good. Located only 10-15 mins straight walk from the old town centre with trams and ubers being extremely cheap its in a great location with shops and resturaunts in the area (smack burger is amazing)

Great clean hostel
The room was big and very clean, with private bath. The bath included soap but not towels (you could rent them for a price). Each single bed had its own lamp, which was a nice touch. No phone, no alarm clock. I am not sure about wireless because we did not use it. Parking is free in the streets nearby, and I had no problem finding a spot. The hostel is right outside the center of town and you can walk to it in 10 minutes. Breakfast was included. The kitchen is big and it has everything needed for cooking. The place is very quiet. We slept with our windows opened because of the heat (no AC) and there was complete quiet outside too. Also, with the windows opened the room cooled during the night, so we slept well. But the windows have very light curtains and so the light is very strong early in the morning. We used sleeping masks. My recommendation to the managers would be to add some heavy curtains. Overall we got more than our money's worth.

Die Zimmer befinden sich im 4. Stock des Gebäudes. Das Zimmer ist für den Preis angemessen. Das Personal war immer freundlich. Negativ ist, dass das Gebäude dröhnte bzw. leicht wackelte, wenn schwerere Fahrzeuge an der Straße vorbei fahren (z.B. Busse).
