The Secret Garden Hostel

Asuimme Kazimiersin alueella olevassa huoneistossa. Se oli hyvällä paikalla ja oikein kodikas.

Naapurin pubista kuului meteliä perjantaina ja lauantaina, mutta muuten oli melko rauhallista.

Got a double room all to myself for a great price. Very clean with adequate storage. Nice decor throughout.

It was a 20ish minute walk from the main square. It is closer I think to other attractions maybe, that I didn't see, but these things don't matter much if you're travelling with others but as a solo traveller I didn't like having to walk residential streets at night despite it being fairly well lit.

For the price I was pleasantly surprised. The bed was comfy and I was more than happy with my room and toilet facilities. Considering it was a 'shared bathroom' I barely shared it. I was on the ground floor and each room had a bathroom opposite. Others could use them but because there was so many I never had to wait. It was also super convenient it being opposite my room. The room was super cute and I loved that even though its a hostel, I was able to have the option of a private room. The service off the staff before hand were great too as I had messaged them twice with questions and I had a helpful response super quick both times

Considering the reviews of this place were so great I was expecting a lot. I booked a hostel because I was alone and wanted those hostel benefits of meeting people and being able to book tours. There were some recommendations on the walls but the staff weren't very helpful once I was there. When I checked in I was looked at like I was doing something wrong, she said she didn't know what I was on about which made me feel like there was a problem with my booking. When she actually looked at the computer she said it was there. I'm not sure if she got confused with something else first since she didn't even look at the computer. But the staff barely smiled and said a word. I wasn't made to feel very welcome, I didn't want to sit in the kitchen as I didn't feel comfortable with anything. I was a nervous traveller at the beginning and I was hoping a friendly hostel would help that. Don't get me wrong the service wasn't bad, when I did ask for help I did receive it like with buying bus tickets but it just wasn't a friendly service. I don't think I had one greeting/smile

quiet, central location
