Central & lively location but the room itself was clean, safe, and quiet. Spacious room with 3 single beds, a small table, and closet space for clothing. I got the room facing the courtyard instead of any room facing the street. Location was great, very easy to get to the main town square in Krakow, buses, train station, Muzeum Narodowe, etc. I liked the nice light wood interior decoration. Receptionist was always nice & helpful, allowed me to store baggage.

There was no breakfast but was given a McDonald's voucher. Not a problem, I ate elsewhere. There was a really good authentic Polish kitchen called Przypiecek nearby two streets over with many different kinds of pierogi, cold beet soup, potato pancakes, bigos, etc. Many Polish people were eating there (as opposed to tourists) and the food was very good.

The location is everything here! The hostel is 5 minutes walk from the main square located on one of the main streets leading there. There are a lot of restaurants and fast foods around. The receptionist was very friendly. The hostel and the rooms are older, but for this price in very city center? If you are more of the city explorer and you leave in the morning and come back in the evening, this hostel is definitely for you. Also, very female-solo-travelers-friendly.

The furniture in the rooms is little old fashioned, my room would deserve a new shower, but these are small things, totally recommend.

Very good location, right in the center, on a quiet, well-lit street, access to the building is very easy. I liked the idea of ​​having codes on the doors, so you don't have to worry about the keys. Also a good idea is breakfast, offered at McDonald's on the ground floor of the building. The common spaces very clean. although the room had a shared bathroom, the bathroom was only shared by 2 rooms, which is very nice. Very kind staff. The location is very clean, quiet. The room was clean, enough heat, clean bedding. It is a good choice for a city break in Krakow.

I liked the fact that breakfast was included, even though it's McDonalds which I don't particularly enjoy. Still, the cafe was next to the hostel, so it was very nice not to have to go too far. I also liked the fact that my bathroom was right in front of my room. Plus, I arrived at around 3 a.m. and was able to check myself in very easily, using the codes provided by the staff beforehand. The location itself is amazing, too. I also appreciated the fact that the receptionist was eager to keep my bags for hours while I was away during the day. I am very grateful.

The only problem was that the shower cabin was clogged when I was there (I had a one-night stay). The receptionist said that they didn't have anything to do with that. One of the previous guests must have done something to cause that.

The location in the Old City was great. Walking distance to most of the city. The room had a great view over the street and city wall. Room was basic but comfortable. Shower was very powerful. I thought I had paid for a single room, but what I got was a room for four all to myself. So, it was bigger than anticipated. Wifi was reliable and fast.

McDonalds was the breakfast, and not available until 8am, which was too late for me. Also not really interested in McDonalds for breakfast when I could have had something Polish. At 2 o'clock each morning, there was a really loud noise like a street sweeper or similar. Never worked out what it was, but it woke me.

Great location, between the train station and the main square! The staff was very friendly. The room was very spacious and could see that was recently renovated. Breakfast was included but in McDonald's not a fan of it but it was actually not too bad.

The only problem was that the shower cubicle was blocked and the door to the cubicle was broken, you couldn't close it all the way, for me it wasn't a big problem because I was only there for one night. The room could have been a little warmer.

The position of the Hostel Brana is in the very centre of the city, just about 10 minutes walk from the main train station and less than 5 minutes from the main square. Although it is on a busy street it isn't that noisy in the night, anyway I travel with earplugs. The staff was very friendly. Neutral - breakfast is via voucher for breakfast menu in McDonald next door. It is nice once or twice but 4 days in row it may be a bit repetitive and well, not very healthy. Room was quite hot.

The temperature of the water is fixed and it is just on the verge of just starting to be warm in the shower. There is no tap in the shower but only a press button, which is very annoying and impractical. The shower head is fixed high on the wall which is annoying and impractical. The bed was too soft for my taste but it is a matter of habit. There is a convertible couch in the room which would be nice but it was trying to unfold to bed when I was sitting on it and leaning on the back of it.

First time in a hostel, and I loved it! I stayed in a single room with private bathroom. - The location is perfect - The look inside of hostel is very nice - The Breakfast in the McDonald's is ok, but the McDonald's could have more choices (Not Brama Hostel fault) - The room is comfortable and they gift us with tea in the room - The staff at the hostel is very kind and helpful

- When I arrived the bathroom was not very well clean, I report it, and the next day they clean again and this time was perfect (they immediately offer me to switch room but I prefer to stay and wait to the be clean) - They have dark curtains in the room, but a little of light enters anyway by morning - The flush button of the toilet should be fixed

This hostel accommodates groups as well as single tourists, like myself. The place is full of charm; Kind receptionists. Lovely spacious room on the 3rd floor (no lift) with double bed. White bedding and beautiful white embroided towels provided. Wooden flooring. Nice table with kettle, coffee and tea selection. Large wardrobe. Bedsides and side lamps with sockets on both sides. Large modern bathroom, some toiletries, hot water 24/7. TV ; everything clean and working. Waking up service was not available. There is no age limit for quests.

25 PLN/25zl/£5 Vouchers for breakfast at McDonald as I was expecting in house continental breakfast.

This hostel is very central, only 5-10 minutes walking from the central railway and coach station. The main sights of Cracow are to be reached very easily, within 5-20 walking-minutes away. The room was clean, big, with water-cattle for tea or coffee making. The breakfast was in the neighbouring building at McDonalds. The bed was comfortable and there was no irritating noise. The staff was friendly with good command of English.

There is no lift in this building. I was placed in the third floor. If you have difficulties to carry your luggage up to your room or have serious moving problems, you should book somewhere else.
