The room was mid-size but absolutely satisfactory for one or two travellers. The atmosphere and the ambience of the property was outstanding as it was chilled out and quite calm.

The window of my room was overlooking Szewska Street, one of the busiest streets in Krakow Old Town Centre. The noises were heard from the street but only when the window was open. When it was closed, the frames and panes successfully stopped the sounds and noises from outside. The property (the owner told me that after my check in) had also got some rooms overlooking the courtyard, so if you want some peace and quiet, you may book those rooms. I did not mind the noise as I enjoyed the street view. The owner was extremely helpful and friendly. Also the cleaning staff did their best.

Location 2 mins from the square. Mini market opposite and cafe and food places on same street including subway, McDonald's and burger king. Also a fab pierogi place a few doors up. The hotel has character and Konrad and the staff are very tentative and having use of the kitchen and free drinks was helpful. As a solo traveller it is a great place to go. Planning on returning next year.

It is a little dated, but it's an excellent price if you want to be in the action. I could hear a DJ in one of the garden/underground bars at night, you dont get to be in the action and it be totally quiet. Some things in the bathroom have broken over the years but I imagine can't be replaced and a refurb would push up the price so all in all....you get what you pay for. Konrad and the team make up for those things lacking with the cleanliness and helpful nature with tips of the local area.

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at Golden Lion Guest Rooms Szewska 19. The host was exceptionally kind, providing me with all the necessary information during check-in. The room itself was perfect for a solo traveler - clean, well-sized, and reasonably priced. One of the highlights of the facility is its two kitchens, allowing guests to prepare their meals as they please. While having more cutlery would be a welcome addition, what was provided was sufficient for my needs. The location couldn't have been better; just a few steps from the main square. However, it's worth noting that the area can get quite noisy at night, typical of the vibrant Krakow city center. Nonetheless, this is beyond the control of the host, and I came prepared with earplugs. In conclusion, my stay offered excellent value for money, and despite the minor inconvenience of noise, I would highly recommend Golden Lion Guest Rooms Szewska 19 to fellow travelers.

The WiFi frequently had poor connectivity. I attempted to improve the signal by walking around the room and my floor with my phone or laptop, but to no avail. Perhaps the connection was better on the first floor. However, I managed to find a café near the main square, Green Caffe Nero, which offered excellent internet and served good coffee. It's a great alternative for anyone needing a reliable workspace.

The gentleman on the reception gave us good advice. The location is perfect if you want to be in a central spot. The room was very comfortable. It is not that bad, but you should know the place is old, but it was very well decorated and maintained. Only if you want to be somewhere quiet, select a room that doesn't face the central road on Fridays, Saturdays or holidays, because too many people are passing through. But, maybe you are into that noise...

The guest house has all you need, towels, hair dryer and has a kitchen where you can use the stuff and provide different types of coffee which was nice. The staff are very friendly and this nice man called Conrad has a lot of information about Cracow which supported us in planning for things to do.

The only thing I did not like was there seems to be no sound proofing. The hotel is sat in a popular street in the old town which is fabulous. However this means that it is busy all hours of the night (at least it seems on Friday- Sunday when we visited). So the street were noisy and you could hear other residents loudly. One person in our block put opera on loudly but I couldn’t quite tell if it was outside or inside because depending where you were in the room, you could hear noises from all directions. I did manage to sleep though and occasionally woken up, but if your a light sleeper/ have trouble sleeping in general you might want to pick a quieter spot.

The administrator was wonderful, very friendly and helpful! Everything was clean and nice. The place is really close to the centre. Enjoyed the stay there a lot!

Well, it's completely my personal thing, but it was really noisy outside till late at night and starting early in the morning the trash trucks were already there making lots of noise. The other thing is that I didn't see any breakfast (though the place claims itself "bed and breakfast"). Well, maybe it was somewhere, but I didn't see. 😆

This place is very centrally located in the old town. It's absolutely perfect if you only have a few days to explore Krakow. It's great that there is a kitchen you can use. The host is also exceptionally friendly, and the information provided in advance and during the stay is very good! For those of us who like to bring our dogs along, it's also a big plus that the place is pet-friendly. You have to walk a bit to properly walk the dogs, but it's perfectly fine.

If there's anything we could have wished for, it would be air conditioning in the rooms.

Room was in the hotel exactly in the city center and the kitchen with tea, coffee, plates, cups, fridge was available. The Receptionist was very nice and helpful. The price corresponds to the condition of the room

it was spacious but dark, and we were warned about this from the administration by text message... for 1 night it was ok.

Perfect position right 50 meters from the main square. Nice staff, very gentle and always available. Konrad is a Great Host Apartment was big for our family of four people. Really comfortable

Everything perfect except the noise at night on the street. But is not their fault.

Staff were really friendly, great communication from start to finish, even messaging within 5 minutes of checking out to say we left something behind. Great location, just what you need for somewhere cheap to stay right in the centre.

I can't really fault the place for the price you pay, dont expect luxury, and everything will be ok, the only improvement for me is a couple more plug sockets.
