  Great location

  29 Oct 2024

  I have a bit mixed feelings after my stay in Tatamka. I must definitely admit that the location is very good, close to almost everywhere. The apartment is also well-equipped and relatively clean. However, something that bothered me immediately after entering the apartment was the smell. It's supposed to be a smoking ban, but the smell of cigarettes immediately hits your nose. The apartment needed to be ventilated immediately.When it comes to the surroundings, there is practically everything you need at hand. Right after leaving the apartment, there are a lot of shops, cafes, etc. The price is also affordable. Just improve the cleaning and, above all, do not allow smoking in the rooms, because it may be a big problem for, for example, a family with children.

  Never again in Poland

  07 Jul 2024

  Impossible to sleep due to polish ɓehaving like animals outside, 24/7 strong noises on the street, always woke up with headache if I managed to sleep 4h. One night I even had to find another staying. Unfortunately all other places were occupied because of the concerts or I would have left immediately.Price was really high just because of the concerts, I paid 80 euro for a night, for 30 eur I had found a nice air bnb with private room but unfortunately just for 1 night was available. Scam.The hostel itself is clean and equipped, very spacious (I was in the top floors).The very first time I saw it wanted to leave because it looked soviet from outside and that's not the best start. Also as soon as I went through the stairs saw a man without shirt stinking of alcohol, seemed like a street thug, so I wasn't feeling safe. The climate became better when other people from the concert came and felt more without weirdos.Overall the hostel itself was nice but if you can't sleep it defeats the purpose of being there, just not worth. Will choose an air bnb next time and book in advance, to avoid lack of free spots like this time.Won't come back again. If you see street is noisy, insulate the windows. It seems many polish are uncivilized here and make noises on the street 24/7. I have been in bigger cities and never seen this

  Excelent facilities for a solo traveler. Dorms are pretty, clean, modern and spacious. The bed also comes with a little nightstand and a reading light!Good security system and handy 24h service. Easy check in and out. Shared showers are private with locks and a loundry soap is only 1€.

  A good stay at a "short walk" to many :)

  14 Mar 2023

  The stay on the basement level was generally a good one in an 8-bed dorm room spacious enough to move around (with also a "long table" in the middle), and yes the bathroom (ensuite) came with like a nice-sized area of sinks & mirrors; and the "common area" on the main floor is also a pretty nice hangout area (although just in the dining room of that area briefly during my 2-night stay).And as for the convenience of food & some other essentials, there's a "small-but-well-stocked" grocery shop just across the street, then to the right and just about a 5-minute walk is a Vietnamese restaurant (for my "main meals" with a "nice variety" of delicious items to choose from), then about another 5-minute walk after that restaurant is a McDonald's (for breakfasts during my stay). And also not having to walk too far from this hostel by going the same way to the McDonald's as just mentioned followed by a right turn and for about another 15-minute walk is a straight way to the Castle Square & the Royal Castle (a "great interior" of both a palace & a museum for a worthwhile visit).

  Political hostel, not all the nationalities are welcome

  03 Jan 2023

  Too much politics... I understand that we need to help refugees. However the manager turned this hostel from hospitality business into political propaganda means. Some receptionists wear badges with one country flag, etc.. The only thing the hostel did not yet is painting its building into the one country flag colors. People come here from multiple countries, they might have different political views.. That's why the business should stay out of politics.When I asked the reception lady why does she wear a badge with a flag of one country, she told me a lot of bad things about my motherland. Interestingly, she has never been in Ukraine or in Russia personally. I am ok that business should help war refugees. However I am not ok with staff making political propaganda. People come here from different countries and the business should stay out of politics.I spoke with guests from Ukraine in the hostel and they were much more polite than the receptionist .Though I need to admit: most other administrators at the reception overall were nice and friendly.
