Awesome, super friendly staff who went out of their way to be really helpful and accommodating. Clean, basic room which was always a comfortable temperature. TV room with a full bookshelf and free wifi throughout. Breakfast was tasty and substantial. Great location in Kazimierz - 5 mins walk to some of Krakow's best restaurants (most of the best restaurants seem... More

Although the main hostel building is a little way from the city (and a fair walk from the station), the Szeroka St apartment we stayed in was ideal - right in the heart of Kazimierz. Checking in was hassle-free and the woman on reception was really nice. Thankfully the apartment was ready early as my partner was in the middle... More

I was absolutely shocked when I got to the hostel it was so clean and well decorated! It was like a dream. On the days I was hung over, I'd chill out in the room , connect to the WIFI and turn on the TV, to watch David Attenborough in Polski. I was so comfortable that the reception staff saw... More

The Secret Garden has a main building, not in the main area of Kazimierz but about a ten-to-fifteen minute walk away. We stayed at their apartment, which is right on Szeroka behind the Ulica Krokodyli (Crocodile Street) bar, a cozy little place for a beer. The apartment is a 1-bedroom with a kitchen and living room, at around $60/night! Cheap!... More

For my first visit to Krakow and looking for clean affordable bed I found this on TA it was extremely good value (2 nights 153pln incl. breakfast0 I found the hostel without any difficultly and used only public transport to get there. The locals directed me there in minutes. The reception staff were all very welcoming and helpful and efficient,... More

This place was great. It seems to be a bit out of the way, a couple of tram stops south of downtown, but being 100 yards from tram stops and trusty bus 109 (I think - been a bit since I was there) makes it convenient. The neighborhood is quiet at night. Trusty bus 109 goes to the salt mine,... More

We stayed in the apartment on Szerowka street, whilst our friends had a double room with bathroom in the hostel. We were all very satisfied. The apartment, whilst only with basic furnishings, had all the mod cons one could need and was in a beautiful location in the Jewish quarter (10 mins walk from the hostel). It was clean, sizeable,...

Didnt know what to expect not having stayed in a hostel before but this little gem was excellent, clean, fresh and staff couldnt be more helpful even did breakfast early for me before my pick up so I wouldnt go hungry, great base to explore a surprisingly beautiful city. More

Well first I have to say Secret Garden is the best hostel I have ever stayed. I paid around $29 on expedia for a single room, which is essentially a triple room for single use. Room has sufficient space, but very spartan. For this price, I guess nobody will expect luxury furnitures? It's clean, very clean, better than most hotels... More
