    The quadruple room at Orion was cozy and comfortable, with a private bathroom equipped with a refreshing shower. The separate bedroom provided a sense of privacy, and the living room was a great space to relax and unwind. As a laid-back guest, I really enjoyed the homely atmosphere of the room.

    Personally, I found that the lack of a hairdryer in the private bathroom was a minor inconvenience. However, I understand that others may not find it to be a problem.

    I had an amazing stay at this hotel. The location was superb, situated between a relaxing riverside promenade and a vibrant neighborhood filled with nightlife. The cleanliness of the rooms, kitchen, and bathroom was great. The staff, especially the reception lady, was friendly, helpful, and made me feel welcome. The hotel facilities were great, with personal sockets near almost every bed, big lockers, and a well-equipped kitchen with a large fridge, toaster.

    Didn't dislike anything about the hotel.

    The quadruple room was perfect for our family with two small kids. It had a private bathroom with a shower, which was really convenient. The apartment was spacious, with a separate bedroom and a living room. The bathroom was equipped with a shower and a hairdryer, making our stay even more comfortable. We loved that the apartment had a living room where we could relax after a long day of exploring Krakow.

    Personally, I would have liked if the apartment had more than one bathroom.

    The room was clean and spacious, providing a cozy and relaxing atmosphere. The location was ideal, with easy access to both the river promenade and the vibrant nightlife of Kazimierz. Despite a few minor issues, such as slow wifi and limited kitchen amenities, the overall experience was positive. The great location and cleanliness of Orion made it a good choice for a short-term stay. I would highly recommend this accommodation for anyone looking for a convenient and pleasant stay in Krakow.

    Cleanliness: The place was cleaned daily, making it feel fresh and hygienic throughout my stay. It was like having a cleaning fairy who waved their wand and made everything sparkle.

    Minor renovations.

    The location of the hotel was excellent, with easy access to popular tourist destinations in the city. The price of the stay was very affordable and offered good value for money.- A friendly and kind owner made the experience more pleasant.

    The lack of Wifi and network connection in the room was inconvenient. Having to go to the small kitchen to access Wifi was not ideal, especially when there were limited spaces to sit and work.

    The location was fire - we were just a stone's throw away from the Schindler Factory Museum and St Mary's Basilica, two must-visit spots. The vibe of the place was cool and modern, with clean rooms and super comfy beds. Plus, the staff was chill and helpful.

    If I had to pick one thing, it would be that Orion could have had more activities for us party-loving teenagers. Don't get me wrong, we had a blast exploring Krakow, but it would've been even more lit if the hostel organized some cool events or parties for us to get to know other young travelers.

    We had a great stay at a budget-friendly hostel in a central location. the room had everything we needed, including a nice bathroom. the beds were comfortable and even had individual electric sockets. the kitchen was a bonus, and the receptionist was incredibly friendly and helpful. We would definitely choose this place again for our next visit. Cons: No lockers needed as the hostel provides private lockers with keys.
