A suitable location for accommodation

Who decides to stay in the eastern part of the Polish should not have any problems with finding suitable accommodation. Some of the western and central part, it seems that the east is cold and bears roaming the streets. It is the same Polish and everywhere. Who does not believe this should immediately go to this place. Accommodation can invent the Internet. It will be difficult to decide where to go, but because the world is hundreds of kilometers east. We know the main cities like Rzeszow, Lublin and Bialystok, but these cities are dozens. Each has something interesting to offer. If we wanted to start our journey from top to bottom of the map is not enough we vacation. Certainly nature, that there is will be an attraction for young and old. The man at some time needs to get some rest and relax in total silence. Nature Reserves that are there are perfect. As we are lucky that we can meet any animal, which never live we have not seen. Accommodation in the East is very high. You can safely choose something suitable for everyone. Hotels, motels, guesthouses, campsites and even camping. This is precisely the east Polish. If we talk about hotels and places for accommodation in Krakow's for sure I can safely recommend the rooms at ul. Grodzka or the Old Town.

Hostels and hotels ?

At various mountain trails now very often seen backpackers hostels. With the holiday in the mountains, it is always worth before embarking on a tour view a list of such facilities. First of all, except that they support tourism, it provides rest and refuge even in the event of adverse weather facilities. Hostels are obliged to ensure accommodation of every tourist. In addition, it also places the information, rental outfits tourist or duty office of emergency services. Stopping the accommodation in such places has a lot of advantages. One of the biggest is their preferred location. Many shelters are located at the main tourist routes. They are so right places and at rest as well as output in the area. I mentioned this version of accommodation because the southern Polish easiest and cheapest for this type of place. However, it is good to see the page booking.com and there opt for something specific. Why is that? And because ... I organized this year for yourself and your friends accommodation in Krakow's Old Town to be anywhere near. And, at the beginning we considered whether it is to be guest house, hotel, hostel or apartment. But in the end we decided on a small apartment and we are very proud of this choice - because the perfect location is sometimes essential.

The boarding house a few words

If a city does not have the hotel very often can be there to meet pensions. We can say that this is a building very similar to the economy hotel. Very often such a building is inconspicuous from the outside, but inside you might be surprised what you see. Some hotels that have four or more stars have no such furnishing. Today, if you want to get a client you have to go out in front of his requirements. If someone goes to the pension he would like not only to relax but also to have some treatments that will allow him to feel even better. Spa, health and beauty salon in such facilities is essential and no one should come as no surprise. Someone asks about the price and here, unfortunately, is sometimes different. If cheap accommodation it will be for the additional services you will have to pay a lot. Nothing is for free and if you want a man to feel better, because it must also feel less money in their pockets. Definitely worth a visit such places because they are very comfortable. Once I was going to go to the guesthouse and so it did. Indeed, I was fascinated with the amount of interest which I was accused. The room in which I was stylishly decorated as most of the apartments by what I felt comfortable. Part of guest rooms occupied large spaces with what I learned in one of the mountainous B - by what you were made to feel at home. Most often they are found in the regions more spas, but it all depends on the demand in this region for such pensions. Man how comfortable the island are immediately feels better and has a greater zest for life.

Pucheroki

Pucheroki (puchery, pueri, from Latin. Puer means boy) is a custom celebrated on Palm Sunday in Krakow and its surroundings.

My first hitchhiking

My first trip hitchhiking took place at Woodstock but I was a little scared that we do not know who will go or what might happen. The next such trip was from Krakow to Warsaw. I was not afraid even then the drivers and the whole situation, only that no one will take me and get discouraged. As it turned out all sat in my head and fears were unjustified. Warsaw I arrived very quickly and then have to domciu. The holiday let in the old town in Krakow stayed overnight one night after which he went hitchhiking to Warsaw where he spent another night in the luxury apartment the next day I came home. A much more appreciate the many transports travel  accommodation in the apartments because I can count on the great atmosphere of the place and certainly more than in the standard location for example. vacation flats  in centre. Okay but autostopie .. Why?Why go hitchhiking? 
• It is because hitch-hiking is an adventure. It's the cheapest and easiest way to experience something different in life.
 • Certainly economy. Rideshare is usually free and you can do without a large sum of money to go anywhere. If the journey is expected to be several zł it is worth to play well with BlaBlaCar. 
• You begin to love life. You begin to appreciate the beautiful moments of happiness need little, and driving a car delight in views of the window. You get a simple human kindness and you begin to believe, however, that this world is not so bad.
 • Do you recognize the people and is very much diverse people of great character and very quickly you find out whether you prefer to talk or say nothing. Although you bringing along to The Hitchhiker rather they belong to the bad apples. :)

Offers for every budget

When you prepare well, we will be able to really cheap sleep and not necessarily in dormitories or on the outskirts. Everything depends not so much on luck as on our creativity. 
Offers for every budget 
What is really cheap accommodation? For some, sleep yet cheap means sleep for free, for example, on a sandy beach, but also using Couchsurfing'u or the hospitality of friends. For other cheap accommodation are those below 50 zł for two people. We find here a fairly wide range of many resorts, private accommodation or hostels (in many places it is connected with the need to sleep in a dormitory room with a shared bathroom). Still others believe that cheap accommodation it is less than 150 zł for two. It seems that the largest group of people, because it is the most common price offered on any type of booking accommodation websites or hrs. 
Where to find accommodation 
The most popular and best-known reservation system is booking accommodation. com. The truth is that comparing different services accommodations notice that the rates on booking.com are slightly more expensive than others. However, we can count here on a really good specials such as "secret deals" booking, for registered - where you actually get is sometimes occasions for 50 percent. the nominal price or even for the 70 percent. less. And we like it! Similarly, it was like I mentioned in an earlier entry that looked for the old town apartments, but the hotels in the old town repelled me only by the amount of people which are constantly around and shook her, but after a day attraction man wants to relax. Hence, the decision on  luxury apartment Street. Grodzka where I really total peace and quiet and the price went like in a hotel.Very sensible promotions and discount prices also appear on other sites on the HRS or Trivago.

Topography trip

And now we go smoothly in topography and geography. It is very important in our view to have a basic knowledge about the city or land where you are traveling. First !!! First, locate the airport or central train station in the city. Relatively bus, but he will be close to the station. Secondly - if the city has a subway system - find out where there are major interchange stations or ... end stations of the line.- But why? Believe me, from now on you should look for such accommodation, that were either close to the main railway stations or at the end subway station. This will greatly facilitate your sightseeing around the city will save a lot of time and money. Besides hotels and economy hotel located  from the city center, but next to the metro can be half cheaper than those in the center. And while you can from them to get to the center for minor eg. In 20 minutes. A similar situation I had was during his stay in Krakow. The last time I was there and then a train when I was a few years old and completely not remember the topography of the city. The first thing a planned apartament in the old town, but after a while I realized that the rent a room in the old town is almost suicide not only price but also in terms of congestion. That's why I decided to choose a cheap apartment near the center of where exactly know how far I have to train where I have various monuments and by the way I enjoyed the quiet. Hotel in the center is perfect for business travel where you need to be close to the venue, close to the train, etc. However, taking a trip where we focus on hiking accommodation slightly outside the Old Town is a great option.
