Good value for the price
I stayed in a six bed dorm and I am satisfied with the overall experience. It is everything you would expect from a hostel but with a few things that elevated the experience: 1. Clean shared bathrooms. Unlike the smelly and dark bathrooms I experienced in other hostels, the bathrooms here are modern, bright and cleaned every day 2. Common room with comfy sofa, TV and game consoles (I have not used them so I can't vouch if they work). 3. "Cafeteria" - Located one floor below the reception, I believe only open at day time. What I can say for sure is, in case you have not been impressed by the shared bathrooms outside of your room, the toilets here are as clean as the others and with stunning lighting. 4. Locker room for luggage - Next to the cafeteria, there are plenty of storage spaces. Not sure if you need to pay extra for it. 5. Garden - place to sit outdoor and hang your washing (important for later). There are also bike racks! 6. Towel can be borrowed free of charge, the catch is you need to leave a deposit (cash only) and will be fully refunded when you return it. 7. Convenient location - Multiple bus and tram stations within 10 minutes of walking Here are some minor complaints : 1. Room can be hot in the summer. However, it is uncommon for Polish buildings with AC or electric fans anyway. 2. Luggage space in the shared dorm is quite limited and inevitably will take up some common space 3. Washing machine is available but no dryer is available.

Safe, quiet and pleasant
Not very central but about 20mins walk away from centre or train station. Quiet and safe area. Staff friendly and helpful on a 24/7 reception desk. Towels on refundable cash deposit. Bit battered on closer inspection but clean in our bedroom and shared bathroom. Shared kitchen not so clean but very nice to have the option of that. Shared garden very pleasant. The biggest problem was not enough sockets in the room, only 2 for a 4-bed room - please put some more in! Could improve the shared bathrooms: lack of bath mat or hand towels and more shelves/hooks needed. Overall happy with stay and would come back :)

From helping us out with a short-notice extra night because I'd gotten my dates mixed up, to ringing around to help us organise bike hire and an endless amount of knowledge on local attractions and opportunities, the staff the Hostel Deco were friendly, astute and flexible. We thoroughly enjoyed the quaint attic-room "pidgeon coop" which was quiet and had lovely views from the 5th floor. You do need to be prepared to deal with stairs - 110 to our room, but well worth it.

awesome original Art Deco housing!!
Extremely authentic Art Deco place with lots of original furniture from the 1930s. Loved the room, it was spacious and nicely decorated with film posters of 'Metropolis'. Shared bathroom was clean, although we had run out of toilet paper. Unfortunately they don't provide towles. The shared kitchen is actually way too small considering the amount of rooms they have. Fridge was totally full. In walking distance to Old Town.

Not a happy camper on this property
This is one of those I regret booking for 7 nights. I only stayed one night and it's because I arrived very late. If I arrived early I would have tried to find another place to stay. The room does not look, feel, and smell clean. I felt grossed out. It smelled dirty, old and not fresh, even the bed. I feel like taking a shower after sleeping in it, and of course I did. Also, I was put on the 5th floor. No elevator. I had to go up and down the stairs for some issues during my check in. The good thing though, the staff were good. The one who checked me in helped me with my luggage to the 5th floor. The manager was considerate about how I feel about my stay and gave me a partial refund for the remaining nights except for 2 nights since their cancellation policy is 48 hours, I think. However, he only gave me the amount that would have been due to them. The rest of the payment, hotels.com kept even though the manager cancelled my last 5 nights. I tried contacting hotels.com about it and also the manager did but I never got a responsefrom hotels.com about it. Hotels.com got a big commission for the number of days that the property agreed to cancel for me (5 nights) So, hotels.com, please give my money back for the 5 nights commission and tax.

Love staying at Hostel Deco!
Originally booked for a week, and ended up adding an extra 4 nights. Very clean and friendly. The front desk staff is awesome and they are there 24 hours a day. I know because i was up drinking really late one night in the common room and went out to chat with the front desk person after everyone else fell asleep. The bed is really comfy. I do wish it could be a bit wider, but it is definitely long enough and im 2 meters tall so that's saying something. Bathrooms super clean. the place has a nice backyard, and there are several places to eat, buy snacks, and beers.

Great no frills accommodation for budget stay
My friend and I wanted a base to explore Krakow from. This couldn't have worked out better, we had a late flight so wouldn't be checking in until midnight. I sent a message in advance and they confirmed that they have a 24hr check in so that would be fine... they then offered to arrange a transfer for us! The guy who picked us up was great, he told us some of the things we should see while we were there and it only took us about 20 min to get to the hostel. We paid for our room on arrival and were able to put a deposit down for towels too. They also have lockers for luggage so when we had to check out at 11 on our last day we got one of these too so we didn't have to hang around the place. (They also arranged our transfer back to the airport). The room was fine we had a double which was a huge space, but very basic. Would be nice with a bit of updating - decent wardrobe to hang clothes if you wanted, a MIRROR would be great but like I say it was a base for us. We shared a bathroom with two other rooms - 1 toilet, shower and sink. Again it was fine, we were out and about most of the time so just needed showers in between and never had a problem with getting in. The hostel is about 15-20 min walk from the main square, but there's shops local so you can grab bits for the room as you need. We had a great time and will definitely go again, I would stay there again with friends as it was secure, clean and the staff were really helpful.

Very nice place, clean, big rooms and comfortable. The only problem is that they don't have enough plugs in the room. Only 2 for 8 persons... But everything else it's perfect. I recommend to stay here. And I hope my comment will make the hostel add more connections or something.
