The hotel was lovely, clean, and spacious, great for relaxing after a day of walking. The service was extremely helpful, offering quick fixes and plenty of information about historical tours in Krakow. The location, although ideal for some being close to the Jewish district, felt slightly far from the Old Town center. The dining options were limited, with room for improvement in the selection. Overall, a comfortable stay with friendly service and a convenient location.

The hotel's location is brilliant, right at the edge of the fabulous Jewish quarter, close to Kaziemierz Jewish district and a short distance from the city center. The rooms, however, can get stuffy despite having various radiators, and the cleanliness is questionable. The hotel provides helpful information for historical tours in Kracow and offers convenient services. The dining experience is lacking in variety and quality. Overall, a great location with some room for improvement in room cleanliness and dining options.

I had a wonderful stay at the hotel! The rooms were relatively small but functional, and mine was located towards the rear of the hotel, offering a peaceful environment. The room itself was large, comfortable, and clean, with a good shower. The location was perfect for exploring Kraków, just a short walk from the Jewish Quarter Kazimierz and easy access to the old town. The service was exceptional, with staff members who doubled as concierge assisting me with transportation and providing a lovely breakfast spread. The hotel dining experience was delightful, offering a nice variety of options in the buffet. While the location was excellent, being close to top restaurants in Krakow, I did encounter some unwelcome interactions with the Ukranian mafia in the area. Despite this, I enjoyed being in the lively Jewish Quarter. Overall, the facilities were great, making my stay comfortable and convenient.

The hotel is conveniently located near the Jewish Quarter Kazimierz, offering a quiet stay despite overlooking the street with double glazed windows. The rooms could be improved in terms of light in the morning and lack of wardrobe. On the positive side, the air conditioning worked well. The service was a mix of friendly and unhelpful experiences, with some staff showing a negative attitude. The hotel's location is excellent for exploring the city, being close to both the Jewish Quarter and the old town, although the surrounding area lacks amenities. The dining experience had its ups and downs with limited options for breakfast but new sheets provided consistently. Overall, the facilities were satisfactory with room for enhancement.

The hotel used to be like large apartments that felt cramped and noisy, a bit of a waste of space. However, the location is superb, right in between the Jewish quarter and old town with easy access to main attractions. The dining experience was enjoyable, especially with wood-fired pizzas, but the room size was a drawback.
