During 5th edition of CONFidence you have a unique chance to stay at the coolest spot in the city – Hackers’ Squad. It is a place where hacking never stops!
We decided to rent the whole hostel (or even group of hostels if it’s necessary) and turn it into the real hacking space – a place to sleep, to party and to hack - only for CONFidence attendees. While registering you can choose to stay in Hackers’ Squad for 14 EUR/night. It is not only cheap, but also convenient (the Hackers’ Squad is located in a walkable distance from the conference center) way to stay in Krakow during CONFidence.
