Smart2Stay U Jakuba

I had everything I needed in my room, which had three beds and a large balcony facing the courtyard. The location suits me well, with shops nearby. There’s a little kitchenette on the third floor, enough for heating or cooking food. Ms. Anna, the hostess, was welcoming and very nice, and the staff were polite. I felt comfortable throughout, and the neighbors were nice too. I recommend this hostel.

The place is usually tidy, and Lidl and Biedronka are close by. There’s also a small parking lot on site for 20 zlotys a day, and the airport is nearby, so planes are constantly taking off. The kitchenette is the frustrating part: it has a stocked refrigerator, kettle, and microwave, but no stove. The bed costs the same regardless of how many beds are in the room: 60 zlotys a night or 850 zlotys a month as of August 2022. If you leave early, you don’t get the remaining money back.

The rooms are simple but clean, and the price and location are good. I’d recommend it.

I paid in euros, but they converted the money at a rate of 3.5. For a bed costing 50 euros per night, I got just 95 zlotys back and was given a bill for 80 zlotys. The rest of my money was gone.
