Review

I have booked the apartment Upon check in it was all self check in I didn’t like this where was the human to human interaction. They personal was the but not good morning or good day. We wanted to check in early which was 25zl price was ok. Around £5 and better for us we didn’t have to walk around with our things. I have called and ask some questions on the day of arrival around 9 am given the name been given all the explanation. He was thinking I have booked a room in the hostel I have informed him it’s not true I’ve booked a private bathroom and kitchen which he then told me it’s an apartment funny enough not in the same building and 10 mins walk from where we were. The apartment itself was cold no one put heating on.there was only 2 towels provided free of charge however there was 3 of us arriving. No hand towel was provided.overall the his was my first time with (hostels and apartments) next time for sure I will be staying in the hotel as I find this for myself an unappealing experience

The check-in was confusing, and the guy at the front desk just told me "your room is X and the key is on the bed, to check out, bring your bed linen and leave the key at the front desk" and that was all the communications I had w/ the front desk during my whole stay (6 days), actually I barely crossed paths with them. So I guess if you plan get some support or advice for/around the city, you can't expect it from the front desk Despite that, the stay was nice, clean, no weird smells and quiet, so good place for a rest, specially if you just need the hostel as a place to sleep. Must say is not very well illuminated, the aura is kind of dark but enough to not reach the creepy-unsecure line. The bed was comfy enough and the linen was clean, you keep the key with you as it was the one of your own place and the front door works with a pincode that changes at least once a week and they send you an email with the new code.

Thin walls, lazy staff

Staff is so lazy they don't even put sheets on the bed for you. I've never been to a hotel or hostel where you put the sheets on the bed yourself and there's no room service to remove sheets from your room. I had a private room, and the walls were so thin that I was woken up twice at 3am by the neighbor's alarm

It is a very small hostel, so don't expect the massive social areas you would normally see. Beds are comfortable, there is a 20 zlotys key deposit but you get it back. Worth it for the price, very clean.

Exceptional value close to old town

The hostel is quite spacious and quiet. It appears to be fairly new. An exceptional value so close to the old town. There's a restaurant called Chata nearby which is also good.

The male desk clerk is a scammer and harasser!

The male desk clerk has serious and dishonest issues! He tried to scam me into giving him more money! He said that my multi-day stay required me to check out at 10 am each day then check back in at 2 pm...leaving my stuff in the luggage room for 4 hours per day. He said if I did not do this, I would have to pay more money! He showed me the registration paper where it states that check out is at 10 and check in is at 2. He said I had to do this every day or else pay extra. I explained that check in is at 2 on the first day and check out at 10 on the last day...not every day. He kept insisting angrily that I would have to pay him extra. He even came in my room at 10 am one day and violently shook my bed to wake me up, having ignored his colleague’s note about my multi-day booking. When I called hotels.com about the clerk’s harassment and scam, hotels.com rep called the guy who then claimed he didn’t speak English! The hostel needs to fire this guy and look into his mental state. Otherwise, it’s a nice hostel and the female clerk is absolutely lovely and efficient.

The staff were very nice and helpful, the facilities were clean enough and it is a very good location for old town. However, a club is immediately outside the windows of the hostel on one side and we were woken up every night by shouting, music and drunk people crying. We would shut the windows to at least block some noise out but the rooms get extremely hot which further made sleeping difficult. There was no mention of this on the advert and the club sometimes stays open until past 8 in the morning so just bear this in mind if you’re planning on staying at Lorf.

C’est ok surtout en hiver mais pas pour l’été!

Un bon Hostel mais malheureusement il n’y a pas de climatisation et les chambres sont trop chaudes! Il faut installer la climatisation car il faisait trop chaud et lourd dans les chambres. En revanche, j’ai bien aimé l’emplacement et le personnel aussi!!
