About this place MAINSTATION HOSTEL Gdańsk

Mainstation Hostel is a budget hostel on Podwale Grodzkie, beside Gdańsk Główny railway station. It is a mainstream hostel listed here as gay-friendly, not a gay venue. The selling point is location: trains, trams and the airport link are on the doorstep, and the Main Town's historic streets are about ten minutes on foot. Reviews are mixed, at 3.8 from around 140, so read recent ones on cleanliness and noise. Station-side streets can be loud at night. Gdańsk's gay scene is small; check the city page for the current bar or party nights.

The plus is the location, right at the train station, close to the Old Town. And that's it. The minus is starting with the building and the stairwell. The stench is filthy... It smells terrible. Another minus is that the windows can't even be closed; they're old wooden and useless. The room itself was generally clean and not smelly. You can see that the cleaning ladies take care of everything. The bathrooms were also generally clean, but then there were the awful windows, with water pouring out of the shower all over the bathroom... It's a shame the owner photoshopped the photos, because the difference is huge. We took this one because it was quite cheap and close to the train station, but never again.

The location is the best thing about this hostel. My room was already occupied, so I had to call the host to give me a different room. For the cheap price it is okay.
