    The hostel was reasonably priced and located in the center, making it convenient to explore the city. The room was clean and the beds were comfortable, providing a good night's sleep. Additionally, the staff was helpful and friendly, ensuring a pleasant stay.

    the bathroom was not cleaned during my two-night stay, which was quite unpleasant. Moreover, there was no mirror in the room, making it inconvenient to get ready and occupy the shared bathroom.

    Great budget option with friendly staff, 24-hour reception, and a comfy common room. Convenient location near the center and Wavel Castle. Good view through the window. Nice restaurants and cafes nearby.

    The location is unbeatable! The staff were friendly and the room was clean and large enough for the two of us. We arrived on a night train one morning and left on a night train the next day and they were kind enough to hold our bags both days so that we didn't have to lug them around the city.

    Wifi did not work and they didn't seem to know how, or to be too concerned about fixing it

    Great location. We could reach the city center on foot. Rooms were clean and enough comfortable. Interesting design. Staff helpful and friendly.

    Old building that should be renovated from inside. Reception on the third floor that was strange at the beginning. Poor breakfast.

    The location of the hostel is excellent, situated between Kazimierz and the old town. There is a market open 24/7 right next to the entrance door, and there is a nice coffee bar across the street. The rooms are clean and spacious, and there is a balcony where you can enjoy the morning sky. The staff responds quickly to any needs and the hostel has all the necessary facilities for breakfast and lunch. I highly recommend this hostel for its great location and value for money.

    Our room was very clean and new for this price! The window opened to the back-side (not to the street), so it was also quiet there!

    Great location in Kazimierz, close to bars, pubs, and the old town. Clean room with private bathroom and fresh towels. Well run hostel with large rooms in the heart of Krakow's Jewush Quarter. Excellent staff, fluent English, and affordable price.

    Gave us an extra bed for free, to accommodate 8 single people when there were only 6 singles and one double bed on the listing.

    The shower door was hard to unlock after you locked it. Needs a better shower enclosure. Needs more than 1 key for a group of 8 people.

    I recently stayed at Tara and had a fantastic experience. The location in Kazimierz is perfect for groups wanting to explore the vibrant nightlife and local restaurants. It's also a short walk to the old town and other attractions. The price was incredibly affordable, making it great for budget travelers. The staff was friendly, helpful, and spoke English fluently. a great base to relax and sleep while exploring the city.

    Strongly recommend this hotel.

    I loved how the hostel was conveniently located near lively cafes, bars, and restaurants. The free WiFi and helpful staff were a nice touch.

    Oh, but the fire extinguisher in the room really ruined the decor. Such a shame.
