Ok hostel, nxt to Macdonald.
4 Beds dorm are more inconvenient then 6 bed dorm though paying more. Most 4 Bd dorm have no privacy curtain and head lights and it is inside the 6 Bed dorm, sharing the same one tiolet. Staff on 25-Sep when checkin was friendly and helpful but staff on 26=Sep was unfriendly and feeling annoyed, sitting there looking pretty and only smile to her hand phone. Not too customer oriented.
Breakfast was not well laid, like no breakfast. Condition below average.

We enjoyed our stay at Top Hostel as it is at a very convenient place straight in the main street of Zakopane. Although the room was pretty small.

We had a double private room and the only difference between ut and a hotel is the fact that it cost 5Zl per towel. Katya (reception desk) was most helpful in assisting us with laundry. She was very pleasant and spoke English. On the negative side, our room was in the front and we could hear all the street noise as the windows are not insulated. Also, the only furniture in the room was a bed with no place to sit or put your luggage.

Top hostel is walkable from the bus station and right in the center of town. It's very clean. Most of the doors are left unlocked but the town feels really safe and they have lockers (deposit needed). The breakfast is very basic. The staff is really friendly, although not helpful/ knowledgable about activities in the area...but it's easy to meet other travelers and share info.

Great location & price.
Me and my friends were well amazed when entered our room. We booked en suite room for three. Very clean ,comfortable, great size and clean. Staff is amazing, they speak great English and go out of their role to help. They know what customer service is. I will stay again and would Recommend to anyone. Only one thing I did not like it was breakfast, very basic. There is a fridge so you can buy your own food and put it there. Shop is just across the street. Hotel is located on the main street Krupowki. Stay there if you looking for cheap ,good place ;-)

lokalizacja bardzo dobra jeżeli nie przeszkadza wam hałas z ulicy (do spania) . Pokoik mały ale czysty , obsługa bardzo miła . Jedynie co mi przeszkadzało to skrzypiący materac w łóżku i brak tv w pokoju .

Dobry punkt do wypraw
Pokój z podwójnym wygodnym łóżkiem szerokości około 1,6 m.
Czysto zarówno w pokoju jak i w łazience z prysznicem.
Obsługa to wydawanie i odbieranie klucza oraz uzupełnienie braków w kuchni.
Położenie Hotelu w środku Krupówek znacznie ułatwia powroty z nocnych imprez.

Asuin 2yötä jaetussa 4hengen huoneessa. Olin yläsängyssä ja tunsin syyllisyyttä mennä yöllä vessaan ensin herättäen meidän huoneen ja seuraavaksi 12hengen huoneen jossa wc sijaitsi. Isolla porukalla suihkun lämmin vesi loppuu kesken. Lämmittää 60l kerrallaan per suihku. Todella hyvä aamupala (leipä puuro murot maito omenoita jugurttia juustoa kinkkua kurkkua tomaattia hilloja suklaalevite kahvi tee) ja ihana henkilökunta

Good location
Very central location, small room and a very busy street with some noise from restaurants but not too disturbing (also, ear plugs are available in the reception!). Breakfast consist of corn flakes and white bread for toast so not really worth it - we went out for breakfast which is available in many of the restaurants close by.
