7.8Verified guest“This place is amazing! The location is unbeatable, with easy access to Gdynia, Sopot, and Gdansk via frequent and cheap public transport. The nearby park and cathedral are stunning, and the beaches are just a tram or bus ride away. A grocery store is only 200m away, and a car rental is next door. The hostel is well-equipped with a shared kitchen and a mini kitchenette on each floor, plus two fridges. Spotless everywhere, and the large balcony adds to the cozy vibe. Strong Wi-Fi throughout sealed the deal. I can't say enough good things about my stay!”
7.8Verified guest“As a family, we loved the convenient location, with frequent and affordable public transport to explore the Tri-City. Tram and bus stops within 500 meters made getting around easy. The park and Oliwa Cathedral, just 1–2 km away, were perfect for outdoor time. The 20 km of sandy beaches were easily reachable by tram or bus, and not too far to walk. A convenience store 200 meters away, open 7 days a week, was handy. A car rental next door was convenient, even if we didn't need it. The hostel had a shared kitchen and a small kitchenette on our floor, with two fridges. The spacious balcony and cleanliness were highlights.”
7.8Verified guest“Great value, easy access from the airport, key code entry, and comfortable rooms. Cozy atmosphere and friendly staff. Lovely garden and well-equipped kitchen. Allowed early check-in and hanging out after checkout.”
