A couple of years ago, Mr. Jan Grzebski, a railway worker, actually did wake from a 19 year coma, and he was amazed to find that the red flag had been removed. But one place where the Soviet banner is still riding high is at this tongue-in-cheek hostel, right on the Royal Way. Backpackers are onto a winner here, as you're slap bang in the centre of town, on the recently repaved Grodzka street. Travellers can expect better quality beds than you'd find in a bona fide Soviet era hostel. Plus the hot water and electricity actually work. That said, there's plenty of retro art for wry travellers to savour.
