Average hotel
I have stayed at this hotel before. This time the room was run down, bathroom tiles cracked, sharp under foot as grout also had cone out. Wallpaper ripped and hanging off the walls. Had requested a shower but got a bath. Moved rooms the next day and was given another room with a bath. Moved again. No apology as such. Very noisy as they had some sort of conference and many people.

Nice clean hotel.
Bed was comfy. Room was very clean. Staff was friendly and helpful. Long wait for check in and to get ice from bar when a party is booked. Breakfast was excellent, except eggs were cold and runny. Pool could have been a little warmer and it was next door. One of the Pool guys needs to stay out of ladies changing room, and give women some time to change and rushing us out before 10 p.m. Store was close by but everything thing else was at least 20 minutes away by bus. Only restaurant in area is the hotel's with a limited menu.

Reasonable location for driving, probably a bit far from city centre if not. Fairly expensive and paid parking. Reasonable facilities and shares some facilities with the next door Best Western.

The location was great, convenient to #130 bus to the old city of Krakow. The breakfasts were fantastic! The beds were not comfortable, hard as a rock and no mattress pad,and a rubber sheet instead, which wadterriblely uncomfortable. The directions to the hotel on gps only showed it as Best Weatern Premier.

A Ok hotel with friendly staff.
In general, my experience was Ok. The room was clean but the shampoo bottle was empty and I had to request one, one minute after I checked in. The trash was not gone daily. People were so nice an really willing to help. However, I would recommend to the reception team that they improve their English a bit for an easier communication.
