“Not recommended”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 June 2010

Stayed at Kadetus as passing through Krakow on holiday. Booked a twin and got a double. The room we had (no. 3) was right next to the kitchen and the walls are very thin. On the first night we were awake until after midnight with people eating and cooking right next to our room, and then they started again from 5:30am. The bed was uncomfortable and slept terribly for the 3 nights we were there. The desk staff were rude and unhelpful and definitely unfriendly. Although we were asked to leave the key at reception when we left the building there was no real security - we saw four different desk staff during our time and only the one that checked us in would have known we were actually in room 3 - you could walk in off the street and ask for the key and they would hand it to you. It was also dirty in the room which had floorboards which may be swept but never mopped - if you walked around barefoot you feet went black. The location is actually pretty good. Apart from being a walk with a bag from the station we didn't use any public transport and could easily walk back and forth from the town centre. We booked because the reviews on Trip Advisor were actually ok but I was very disappointed and so glad to be checking out.

“Happy days in Kadetus Hostel”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 November 2009

We had a great stay in Kadetus Hostel. We stayed in Joker Room, it was simple and clean, the breakfast was various and tasty. The Staff is very helpful and friendly. The hostel itself is cosy, the furniture is new and the kitchen is useful if you wanna cook a soup on a cold day in October :)
I can recommend this cheap hostel to everyone.
Have fun in Kadetus!

“Great, great hostel”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 October 2009

Not much of a hostel visitor. But this was truly great. Very friendly, large room, very close to the Old Town (within 5 min. walking distance), and lovely huge, free breakfast (brunch-style). And cheap. So very, very recommendable.

“Nice hostel in Krakow”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 September 2009

I stayed in this hostel 1 night in April in a double room ensuite and I am very statisfied with our staying here. The room was spacious with a big LCD TV and a good bathroom. Breakfast was good (I just didn't like to wash the dishes). It definitely worth the money. Diogo Costa - Portugal

“Good value at the Kadetus”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 September 2009

person found this review helpful

Kadetus hostel is about a 10 min walk from the main square and 30min walk with luggage to the train station.
A clean and spacious hostel run by friendly staff. Our room was big with large ensuite bathroom. No air conditioning but a fan was supplied. The outside street was relatively quiet apart from when the trams started to run early am. Once the windows were shut over you didn't really hear them.
Breakfast consisted of breads, cheese, meats and juice set at a communal table where there was not always enough a room.
On arrival a personalised pack was made up with maps and tourist information leaflets and a pen. A nice touch. An additional bonus was free internet usage on the 2 computers set in the communal kitchen/lounge area.
Kadetus was a pleasantly quiet hostel in which I would use again.
