CUMA Youth Hostel

Szczecin


Everything is pleasant about this place, with simple but bright rooms, located in a leafy neighbourhood. There’s a laundry for guest use, and out in the well-kept garden there are concrete table-tennis tables. It’s 2km northwest of the centre; take tram 3 from the station to Plac Rodła and change for the westbound tram 1 to the ‘Piotra Skargi’ stop.
