Worth weighing

3 to weigh
  • Set back from the centre — Krupowki Street is about 2.1 km away, so you'll need transport or a longer walk to reach the main dining and shopping area.
  • Limited room count — With only six rooms, availability can be tight, particularly during peak seasons.
  • No on-site dining — There's no restaurant, so you'll rely on your kitchenette or head out to nearby eateries like Nocna Miejscowka.

“The balcony was a real highlight of the apartment — a lovely spot to unwind. It made a great base for hikes up Giewont Mountain, and having free parking on-site was a big plus. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here.”
