My room was spacious and very clean, equipped with a comfortable bed, a kettle, and a well-stocked mini bar. The bathroom had a good walk-in shower and plenty of fluffy towels. Although the low bed and unusual duvet arrangement made it seem lumpy, it was surprisingly comfortable overall.

My stay at Great Polonia Krakow Old Town had its highs and lows. The location was fantastic, just a short walk to the main square, but I struggled with a few issues during my visit. The room was spacious and generally clean, yet the carpet was in dire need of replacement. My experience was marred by noise from outside, which disrupted my sleep, but the staff were quite welcoming and helpful throughout my stay.
