Personal comments
Krakow is full of different dance clubs, cafes, and restaurants. The city center "the rynek" was my favorite part of the city, it was beautiful. It is a central city in Poland so it was easy for us at anytime to travel to other places either by train or bus.

Housing
Type of housing: Piast
Arranged by:
If returning, I would choose: Same
Why?
Piast is great because all the students attending the program live in the building. No A/C or luxuries considered mandatory at home, but who needs them with Krakow to explore. Bar downstairs is regular meeting place for all students.

Krakow is an educated city and thus people knew English for the most part. You can get by without knowing Polish. To really learn the language, be sure to hang out with Polish speaking people and/or frequent the downtown area on your own to practice usage.
