It is a great place to stay if you want your own room, to drop off your stuff for the day, and a quiet place to sleep.

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.

Disliked: Room comfort
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.

Boa opção de hostel. Voltaria quando necessário.
Dentro da categoria do hostel, foi boa a experiência. Hostel bem localizado, fácil acesso à estação, ao centro e a comércio. Banheiros bem limpos, apesar de compartilhados. Cama confortável e quarto bem iluminado. A corresia de guarda malas do hostel é diferencial. Wi-fi muito boa. Recepção se comunicou bem em inglês. Contras: não há sempre alguém na portaria, portanto, eles fornecem uma senha de acesso à porta principal, contudo quando chegamos não tínhamos esse acesso e ficamos um tempo aguardando contato do lado de fora (mas depois com o acesso fluiu muito bem). A parede que separa o quarto era bem fina, portanto dava pra ouvir muito os quartos ao lado (e eles nos ouvirem).
