Great deal for the price.

For the price, a great deal. One problem in the summer is that there is no airconditioning, but with windows open there was enough cool air to sleep. Some people might not like to sleep with windows open (no screen, but iron bars across windows) onto a street, but it did not bother me.

Quiet, comfy and central.

We stayed there for 4 nights. Location is really good! Near the town centre and on a small, back street. Veru peaceful and quiet. Beds were comfy and the room was big.Balcony was a lovely bonus. We had a private shower too. Considering how cheap it was, I must say it exceeded out expectations :)
The only disappointment was breakfast. Just cereal and milk were left by the time we got to the kitchen. Anyways, we would definitely stay there again.

Hotel is about 15 min walk to old down. Great restaurant around the hotel. The hotel is quite old but very clean. No air conditioning but with slovenia weather it is not a big issue unless you come in middle of summer.

Fab location, friendly hostel with interior design

My frien and I stayed for 3 nights. It took us a little while but it really wasn't hard to find its location, just as someone mentioned before it was like 5 mins walking distance away from the Main Street (where the bus stops). You are pretty much surrounded with shops. The building might not look good but once you get in their interior design is lovely. We had two single beds twin room so that was alright. Room was in good sized. Even though we all had to share the common room area like the kitchen and bathroom but that wasn't a big problem as people would normally use it in different times. People there who served us were very kind. Most of them can understand good-basic English so no problem in communication. It wasn't just you heaters who stayed there, there were also adults and even old couples too just for anyone's info,

Good staff but irresponsible guests

Hostel was under renovations so that explains some of the negatives. Front reception staff were excellent both at check in and on check out? Offered maps gave directions and put luggage up so I could sight see. Now the negatives. Some of the other guests needed some hotel edicite. Woke up to a girl talking loudly while walking down the hall at 1:15 am. Another was running up and down the hall with the floor tiles clicking cause they were wooden and not glued down. 7am the dry cleanest downstairs starts pressing linens. Not a great night sleep.

Good hotel with benefits from the nearby hostel.

This hotel is linked to the nearby hostel of a similar name. We checked in at the hostel and the staff were incredibly helpful and gave great advice on where to go. The hotel was good. The room was a decent size and had all the necessary facilities. Breakfast was served right near our room and was also good. There was access to a kitchenette with tea/coffee all day. Really liked this hotel!!

In a very good location, although I would have preferred a more private bathroom, but everything is fine.

Nice Hotel

It was a nice stay in Helvetia. It was only a short walk to the centre of Warsaw. The room was cool even though it was 30*C outside. The receptionist was very friendly. The only critisism would be that the cleaner never came during our stay. This was probably because of the holidays. We didn't mind it that much, but it would have been nice to tell us before hand.

Boa estadia

Boa localização.. poucas quadras da cidade velha. Equipe atenciosa. Quarto bem confortável. O que nao gostei foi do ralo do chuveiro que não dava conta e formava uma piscina no box..um tanto nojento acumular água suja. O banheiro tb nao tinha tapete pra quando sai do chuveiro. Não tem travesseiro extra. Wifi instável.

고마운 곳

위치는 약간 중심에서 떨어진 듯하나 주요 구경거리의 시작점이라 좋은 편임.
2박 후 버스 출발시각의 변경으로 일찍 출발하는 우리에게
미리 정해진 시간 보다 1시간이나 일찍 식사를 할 수 있도록 배려해 주어 고마웠음

호스텔의 위치는 바르사바 중심에 있지만, 시골 여관 같음

이 호스텔을 찾아 갔을 때는 제가 바르사바 공항에서 처음 가는 길을 물어보면서 폴란드 시민의 도움을 많이 받았습니다. 그래서 폴란드 시민에 대한 첫 인상이 저에게 꽤 괜찮은 것으로 남아 있었지요. 하지만 막상 호스텔에 들어갔을 때 제가 만났던 호스텔의 직원은 매우 고압적이었습니다. 그곳의 결재 방식이 일반적으로 호탤을 떠날 때(check out) 결재하는 방식과는 달라서 호탤을 투숙(check in) 할 때 결재하는 것인지를 알지 못하고 갔는데, 저는 한국에서 익스피디아을 통해서 이미 결재를 하고 왔다고 생각하고 호스탤 직원이 하는 말을 이해하지 못했습니다. 그러면서 그 직원이 위압적으로 소리를 치고 손짓 발짓하는 것에 저는 몹시 혼란스러웠습니다. 그 때 제가 한편으로는 불쾌하고 다른 한편으로는 황당해서 무턱대고 핸드폰에 찍혀있던 폴란드의 한국 영사관에 전화를 걸었습니다. 그렇게 한국 영사관 사람들과 대화를 하면서 저는 점차 진정을 하였고- 한국에서 익스피디아 사이트를 이용해서 이 호스탤에 예약을 하였는데, 제가 그 예약을 할 때 결재도 같이 했었던 것으로 생각을 하였습니다. 결과적으로 이것은 저의 착오였습니다. - 밤 11시 10분에야 그 호스텔에서 준 열쇠로 지정된 방을 찾아 갈수 있었습니다. 그 날 밤은 그렇게 힘들게 짐을 풀고 찜찜한 마음으로 잠자리에 들었던 기억이 납니다.
