Staff are nice and helpful. Comfortable bed but shower could be improved due to broken handle. Location is good and close to the river for a walk.

I had a great stay at this hostel. The entrance to the hostel seemed a bit dodge to start with but once inside it really is a beautiful hostel. The living area was great, the kitchen has everything you needed. Tea and coffee were complimentary all day and the breakfast in the morning was also included, the selection was small but enough, a few cereals, breads, cheeses, meats, fruits, spreads, biscuits etc. the rooms were clean as were the bathrooms. I stopped in the female only dorm which has it's own private bathroom. The staff were helpful. It's only a 10 minute walk from the old town and right next the the river. Less than a minute walk from multiple bus stops, making getting there from the airport super easy, just one bus ride away. I would happily stop there again. The only down side was the WiFi was a little bit temperamental, each room had it's own, I had to connect to most of the rooms WiFi just to get constant access. Also I had one night with no warm water for a shower but other than that great.

Surprisingly it was better then I ever thought it would be. Clean, totally renovated, spacious, quiet and excellent value. Own bathroom and lounge. Breakfast included. Don't be fooled by the entrance as it has graffiti on the street door. Makes it easy to find. Highly recommended for all ages. Easy walk to the old city. Staff are very friendly and willing to please. R and B from Australia.

I had a very nice experience at Ginger Hostel! It's located in a good area, close to the center but not so close that it's loud. The staff is super friendly, the hostel is super clean and the breakfast and snacks are super yum. The mattresses aren't the most comfortable ever tho.

My one complain is that the hostel is allegedly +18 and on my last night we got a group of like 50 students who were clearly underage teenagers, they were super loud and messy, it made the rest of the guest feel uncomfortable because they kind of just took over

Spotless

Spotless and looks brand new! I've stayed in 4th floor 8 male dormitory.
I booked this hostel for a night coz the apartment that i've rented for a week was not available on my arrival date. I've planned to check in very late night (about midnight), so all I have to do is to go to sleep straight away.
However, upon entry to the premise, I was so gobsmacked how clean and comfortable Ginger Hostel is! OMG, the layout of the dormitory is well positioned to maintain good space. The bed bunk, and lockers are sturdy, and mattress is comfortable to sleep on. The overall lightings and interior designs are neatly finished and made it cozy to live in. The staffs are approachable. The buffet breakfast has passed my standard; it has great continental menu compared to other hostels. The toilets and showers are \"VERY\" clean and have a proper air fresheners. I must say that toilets and wash basins are properly installed and sturdy. Location wise; there's no visible signage of hostel's name outside the building, but there's a big number '10' at the gate, but i wont penalise this as a point down, coz you normally look for the 'ADDRESS' if you go to search for a place. Good thing is, it has a big grocery store infront of the building, and the location is so close to the centre.

Nice place to stay

This hostel is a little out of the old town, but in a fantastic position to easily catch the public buses to the airport and the salt mine and walk anywhere in old Kraków with ease. The staff were so friendly and very helpful and the breakfasts were good. The facilities are clean and modern. One thing that is missing is a laundry facility however. Enjoyed my stay!

Cute but difficult

Difficult to tell which building it is because there isn’t any signage with their name to confirm you’re in the right place (currently a big green door- hopefully that helps). Also once in the building the apartment doesn’t have a proper sign either (sloppily painted “ws” on door). It probably would have been easier to find if my emails had gone through but they didn’t pop up in my emails until the next morning. Once inside, the room was much smaller than I thought it would be. Barely enough room to get around the bed.
Reception was difficult to reach (they said their phones went down when I was trying to locate apartment so I had to sit outside for an hour continuously calling back) and then I was given the wrong room code so at midnight had to sit outside again trying to find the proper one (called reception but they close and are not reachable, even by hotels.com, as I phoned them as well).

Good news: space is clean and beds are comfy. Location is conveniently placed between two metro stations at 3-4minute walks away.
