Easy to find. Close to old city and other landmarks. Near tram, bus and metro station. Friendly staff. Clean. I recommend it. I would stay here for sure! The only problem that I had was when I got at the hostel of my first day all my belongings where gone. Nothing was in the room. When I asked at first they did not know anything but after the looked at one “special” room; all of my belongings were in a plastic bag. The housekeeping took everything because somehow thought that I did checkout but I just checked in the night before. The same thing happen to my roomate.

Great vibe
Great atmosphere in a hostel (lovely rooms, activities for guests, super helpful reception) + so interesting people! Loved late evening discussions with a guest from US about WWII.

In particular, Dominika was informative, helpful, amiable and friendly. She could not have done a better job throughout my stay, would recommend the hostel solely on her customer service alone. The hostel is located centrally, close to the shops and bars which was convenient as I came in and out during the day. So, all in all, a nice stay.

Good facilities, central location
Big hostel, lots on offer, soundproofed rooms is good with comfy bed areas with universal plugs and a light. My locker wasn’t very secure, hard to secure. Mixed rooms. Had to ask for the code to get back in that night, it wasn’t offered, and no one was around when I tried to check out very early in the morning, had to ring the hostel and hang around until someone turned up. For a cheap bed in a central location I’d recommend this hostel

Nice hostel. More suitable for young people, less for couples or families. The main problem was that sometimes we barely got hot water in the shower.

The hostel is located in a great area, very close to a metro station (5mins walk) & only 1 stop away from the Centrum train station. The room is clean & decent size though I booked one with a private bathroom so I can't speak for the dorms. Each room is named and decorated with a different theme which I found very cute & adorable. I'd stayed in a Room of Cats (?) so it's decorated with little cat paw prints as well as a cat sitting on a lounge chair that is hanging from the wall. Just be aware that you'll have to climb several flights of stairs to get to the hostel so be prepared & travel light.

Clean and friendly
Right near the subway line as well as a number of shops and cafe's to purchase food. I was able to find it really easily, though the path to get there was a little dark. The rooms were a decent size (considering you are sharing with strangers) and lockers were available to put belongings. The beds were very comfortable, probably the most comfortable I've stayed in at a hostel. Staff was friendly and helpful, they had luggage storage which they managed so you could ensure your personals were safe.

great location staff and hostel. would definitely recommend. may seem like a party hostel but after 11 it is very quite. comfortable and long beds fit for taller people like myself. downside is the kitchen is extremely small.

Not so good for a senior traveler
For a senior traveler there are some negatives....first off three flights of stairs to the reception desk....no elevator. The place is funky, which is OK, but it did not have the feel of being well cared for. The first night a drunken lad came back to the room at 3:00 am turned on the lights, made a whole lot of racket, with absolutely no regard for anyone else in the room....know this is not the fault of the hostel, but the place kinda' appeals to this type of visitor. The front staff was very friendly and helpful and booked me into another room, which was fine. There was a kitchen which was OK, but no windows and again kinda' felt unclear..... The hostel is good for a young traveler, but I would not recommend for a senior or family traveling.....

Has The Potential To Be So Much Better!
Oki Doki is a medium sized hostel in the centre of Warsaw. The facilitates are relatively clean but need some need updating especially the bathrooms and toilets. The 4 bed room I stayed in was a bit small and needed some cosmetic work. There is a small bar and kitchen. The hostel is on multiple floors which makes socialising as a solo traveller a bit difficult. I'm not quite sure what demographic the hostel is trying to cater for as it seems have everyone from drunk and randy college students to older more seasoned travellers and even families with children. This does cause some problems as some people see the hostel as a party hostel while other are hoping for a calm based from which to explore the city. I think the management need to decide what it wants the hostel to be and implement policies to achieve this. The main positive of Oki Doki is the staff. They try to regularly organise hostel activities and foster a friendly atmosphere. They are calm, patient and are willing to give you advice, information or just listen to your rants. As Ilona did. She gave me advice on where to go out and then on my return endure my rant on Trump & Brexit at 4am and never complained. As my title says Oki Doki it is an average hostel that has the potential to be so much better!

2 days in Warsaw
Stayed here for 2 nights. The girl at the reception desk was extremely helpful and pointed out lots of places to go for sight seeing, eating, and night life. The room was big, and the showers were clean. Very close to the Old Town (20 min) and the area with a lot of bars (10-15 min). Would stay here again!

Oki Doki ? . . . . . . . . maybe not
Colourful, unique, quirky and quite chaotic hostel that frankly, was overpriced for a dormitory style establishment. Admittedly, I`m probably not Hostel material but I engaged the Oki Doki thinking budget and don`t really think the saving was justified. Staff are all young, some very helpful, others not so to a point of being distracted, more aware of each other rather than guests. Bar service and breakfast service was poor as was the breakfast itself. Served in the bar, the access to the scant offerings was awkward and downright dangerous. Again, you could tolerate the shortfalls if it were cheaper but I doubt I`d bother repeat on my next visit to Warsaw.

nice hostel
Good hostel in a good location, staff were really friendly and helpful at recommending restaurants and places to visit. Room was clean and quiet, breakfast was good. Very good standard for a hostel. Only complaint would be the mattress... Way too soft and sunken in and gave me back pains.. But overall great and would recommend to others.

千萬不要被騙
衝著好評價訂房,但很慶幸我只訂了2晚,因為一進房間就想離開。 除了該建築老舊,沒電梯又有非常多階梯外,房間的設施也很老,老到儘管它是桃花色,還是會讓人害怕。椅子跟床都有明顯污漬。浴室的水壓不穩,洗手會突然噴滿身,但洗澡的水壓卻是一直維持狠微弱,水也不夠熱。

We are really sorry to hear that you didn't enjoy your stay. All our rooms are unique, designed by different varsovian artist, and they all have different styles. There is however often a possibility to switch rooms, if its that important for the guest. We do have a few stairs to the reception and the rooms, but we are always happy to help with the heavy luggage. Hope you still emjoyed your time in Warsaw!

立地良しです
3度目の利用です。 こちらを利用させていただくのは、ワルシャワからバスや飛行機を利用して他国や他都市へ周遊する時です。 6人部屋のロッカーには大きめのスーツケースも入るため、こちらにスーツケースを置いておき、リュックだけで他へ移動するのにとても便利です。 メトロ2線が通っている駅から近いのもポイントです。 各ベッドにライトとコンセントがあり、ベッド半分程のカーテンも付いています。 部屋に洗面台もあります。 トイレとシャワーは部屋の外です。脱衣スペースもあるので利用しやすいですが、お湯が出るまでにかなり時間がかかる(時間がかかってもお湯は必ずやって来ると、注意書きもされています)時がありますし、水圧弱めです。 ゴールデンウイーク頃に利用した時は寒くなかったのであまり気になりませんでしたが、冬は服を脱ぐ前にお湯が出るから確認する事をお勧めします。 また、今回クリスマスを挟んでの予約だったのですが、24.25はホステル自体を閉めると1ヶ月ほど前に連絡が来ました。その間、旧市街にある系列のホステルを案内しますとの事。 私はその期間ポーランドにはいない予定でしたので、系列店にも動かず、チェックアウトもせず、そのままクリスマス後に戻って来てそのまま同じベッドを使いました。(その旨は事前にメールのやり取りで伝え済み) ポーランドを出る前に1泊したのでベッドを使っていましたが、帰って来た時には掃除もされていました。 土曜日のカラオケナイト?のイベントの日は凄く盛り上がっていてうるさかったです。 階段がないのがネックですね。

We are really happy you were staying at our hostel for the third time and you enjoyed it! We do have karaoke on Saturday nights and events for our guests every day, but from 11 pm there is a night silence at the hostel not to distrub the guests, who would like to have a quiet sleep. Hope you'll come to visit us again :)

여기에 제일 단점은 엘레베이터가 없다는 것입니다. 여기 스태프들도 아는건지 계단에 올라올때마다 조금남았으니 힘내세요! 라는 문구가 적혀있어 그거에 힘내서 겨우 올라왔습니다ㅋㅋㅋ 혼성4인실 도미토리 이용했는데 화장실이 하나고 샤워실이 3개밖에 없어서 시간눈치싸움 봐야합니다(3층에 방이 몇개나 있는데 여자 샤워실이 고작3개) 4층이 셀프키친이라 자기가 해먹고 싶은거 해드실수 있습니다 조식은 5000원정도만 내면 먹을수 있다고 했습니다. (저는 시간 놓쳐서 먹진 못했습니다.) 문화과학궁전까진 도보 7분정도 올드타운까진 한 도보 15분 걸리는 위치입니다. 여기서 제일 좋은 점을 꼽으라면 스탭입니다 진짜 완전 친절!!! 아침시간 놓쳤다니 아침 먹기 좋은 맛집도 알려주고, 제가 곤란한일 있었을때 자신들의 일처럼 도와줬습니다.(특히 여자 스탭이 완전 친절!!)
