Roller Hostel 

From the airport, an inexpensive and fairly short journey by train to Krakow Glowny, the main train station, where you find yourself in an enormous shopping mall. Less than 10 minutes walk willl take you to the Roller Hostel. I attach a photo of our twin room (7) but there are already many photos here which show the other rooms and the exterior of the building which is sandwiched between an atmospheric bar with cheap beer and good music on one side, and a reasonably priced supermarket on the other. The hostel is just outside the city wall and a pleasant walk of less than 10 minutes takes you to the city centre. The reception is on the second floor, along with a large kitchen (oven, microwave and fridge)/eating/relaxing area with TV and games. Coffee for the percolator, or instant, and tea are free, with milk in the comunal fridge. Cooking equipment, crockery and cutlery are on site. This was spotlessly clean, as was every part of the hostel we saw. Our room was large and the beds were comfortable. A large radiator provided ample warmth. We had a TV (which we didn't watch) a wardrobe, 2 small tables and a small sofa. Our provate bathroom was perfectly fine. Our large window overlooked the rear of the hotel and we had no problem with noise. WiFi was free and good. I cannot speak highly enough of the staff who not only perfomed the usual duties with efficiency and helpfulness, but who went that extra mile when they found my glasses after I left the hostel. They telephoned me in Riga, where I had moved on to, and then not only did they post them to me in the UK, but they bought a smart glasses case for them. That is real customer care!
