The location of the Hostel is the biggest selling point, right by the riverside with a short walk to the Old Town, it was a prime spot for everything we wanted to see and do in Gdansk. Unfortunately the positives don't extend much further, and you will struggle to get a decent nights sleep, especially if you are a light sleeper. The bunk bed was the creakiest bed i've ever known, and the walls are paper thin so you can hear

Rigtig godt for pengene, vi havde bestilt privat værelse og var positiv overrasket over at se vi også havde eget toilet og bad 😊 Det ligger rigtig godt placeret i byen med nedgang til floden og få minutters gang fra den gamle bydel. Der var dog ingen social aktiviteter på dette hostel 😊

Centralt och prisvärt vandrarhem

Centralt vandrarhem med hjälpsam personal i dygnet-runt-receptionen. Ett stort kök (där bl.a. spis, mikrovågsugn, filterkaffebryggare och vattenkokare finns) och sällskapsrum hittar man i källaren. I rummen finns rejäla förvaringsskåp, som öppnas/låses med nyckelkortet. Madrassen var bekväm, men personalen hade inte dammsugit den innan de la på ett nytt lakan. När jag drog av sängkläderna (som en skylt bad mig att göra innan jag checkade ut), så yrde det av smutspartiklar i rummet. Bortsett från det var min vistelse riktigt trevlig.

Wouldn’t stay here again

Cons: The kitchen closes at 10 or 11pm, they don’t even let you get anything out of the fridge after then. The housekeepers threw away my soap and shampoo, I left it in the shared bathroom that was only shared with one other (empty) room. The Wi-Fi dropped every 5 minutes. The hot water didn’t work one day of my 4 day stay. The shower was super rusty. They have super sheer curtains on the windows, had to put up a blanket and a towel to sleep in after 5am. The cost to rent a towel is 5zloty, I could’ve just bought one for that much. Pros: it’s in a good area.

Not recommended

As mentioned in other reviews, rooms are very small and there's no space. Mattresses are very thin and worn and you will feel the metal underneath. Beds squak a lot and are very noisy all night. So it's impossible to have a good sleep here. The location is good. The man at the reception is angry and rude and does not make you feel welcome. The girl is nice.

Czysto, miła obsługa, mega duże szafki z blokadami, takie, że można w nich całą walizkę/plecak schować. Brakowało mi tylko zamykanych łazienek z umywalką, były tylko prysznice zamykane, a umywalki już nie zamykane przy ubikacji i nie było przy nich miejsca, żeby coś swojego postawić/powiesić (np. kosmetyczkę).

Amazing location with a view of Motlawa river

The stay at La Guitarra was good. I travelled with 2 of my friends and stayed for 5 nights at the hotel in a 4 beds room without attached bathroom. Location is well connected to main attractions. Bathrooms are cleaned regularly. Staff is friendly. Hostel also offers a very good view of the Motlawa river. Our stay was as good as we expected within our budget.

Jättebra läge! Personalen var ganska upptagna och hade inte tid för frågor angående området runtomkring och vissa gäster var lite högljudda på kvällen. Annars väldigt fint, sköna sängar och helt okej frukost men inte mycket för veganer, vi köpte egen sojadryck till frukostflingorna.

Location is great, less than 15 mins leisure stroll next to the river, to the main square area, and to the main bus station. Each bed had a huge locker for use, which was great. Staff was helpful, especially when my delayed luggage was sent to the hostel, the attentive staff (didn't manage to get the name, but really tall male) remembered to keep it because I had mentioned something before leaving in the morning! Really thankful for such attention to details!
