I came to the hostel in the midst of a frigid winter, so it was pretty much empty. I stayed in the large eighteen-person dorm; it was occupied by a couple, but they left after the first day or so. The hostel was very clean and everyone was very nice and helpful. The showers might have been a tad cold,... more

Among the best hostels I've stayed at in Europe. Not even a block off of the main square, it was convenient, very clean, and well suited for younger people backpacking through Europe. Rooms were divided into male and female only and were narrow but squeaky clean with nice wooden bunk beds. Breakfast is very B&B style around a kitchen table... more

Mama's hostel in Krakow's Main Square has a great location, being about 30 seconds walk from the main square itself. The rooms were always clean and warm enough, although a little on the small side compared to other hostels I've stayed in. The staff too were extremely friendly. They often joined in the festivities with other travellers, providing free alcohol... more

The hostel is a giant apartment, which is great for meeting other travelers. The first part of the hostel is the reception with a living room with free computer,... more

Facilitates (kitchen, bathrooms etc) were spot on and there were lockers to keep your valuables secure. Obviously it is... more

The hostel is clean and comfortable. The... more

Mom and I stayed here in early April. I booked our spots via e-mail with very prompt, friendly correspondence from the desk staff. The bedrooms look newly remodeled, with big lockers. The hostel is in a very old building very close to the square. You have to climb several flights of stairs to get to Mama's, which is to my... more
