Since we all seem to be piling on about logistics here...
There seem to be several dorms. For those of use staying in them, how/when are we going to be notified of where exactly we are booked? This wasn't part of the registration confirmation.
Same Question
and are there any advice on taking taxi to downtown in the Airport?

An additional suggestion for anyone who might need to go to a pharmacy is to speak with a staff person in your hotel before going into the pharmacy, have them write down the polish words for your symptoms or
the
medication you desire, over the counter drugs are sold through the pharmacist so you will need to clearly communicate your ailments.
That is good to know. I usually assume pharmacists will speak English, almost anywhere in the world, due to the high level of education required for the job. I don't know (and can't find - I just looked) the statistics, but the proportion of university graduates in the world that speak English to at least a modest standard is very high.
so I can tell you from personal experience that pharmacists here do not necessarily speak English, German or French. However I have found a pharmacy, on Szeroka which does speak some English
