Apartament Jaglana Gdańsk

Apartament Jaglana Gdańsk Overview

When I first walked into Apartament Jaglana Gdańsk, the aroma of fresh bread from a nearby bakery hit me—yeah, that’s the kind of subtle, everyday smell that says “you’re home.” The lobby feels like the living room of a friend’s house: warm light, a few potted plants, and a sofa that actually invites you to collapse into it after a day of exploring. The staff were quick to greet me, and the check‑in was surprisingly smooth—no long lines, just a friendly “Welcome to Gdańsk!” and a digital key that you swipe onto your phone. Parking is a piece of cake; there’s a small, free spot just a block away, so you don’t have to chase the city’s parking lots. (I was worried about the usual parking chaos, but it turned out to be a breeze.)

The apartment itself is a neat 4‑star space, but it’s the little touches that make it feel like more than just a place to sleep. The bed—soft, with a mattress that’s just the right firmness—makes you actually want to stay in your pajamas all day. I found a tiny espresso machine in the kitchen that works like a charm, and the fridge is stocked with local pastries and a bottle of Gdańsk’s famous amber wine. I mean, you can’t go wrong with that! The view from the balcony? Just the street buzz of Jagiellonia Avenue, with the occasional gull swooping down. It’s not a postcard scene, but it’s real, and that’s exactly what you want when you’re trying to get a feel for the city. The sound of traffic is loud enough to keep you awake at night, but the building’s walls are surprisingly soundproof—nice, because you don’t want to hear every honk while you’re trying to get some sleep.

When you’re ready to explore, the location is a sweet spot. Just a 10‑minute walk brings you to the Old Town, where the cobblestones and historic grain warehouses feel like stepping into a storybook. I liked how close the Apartament Jaglana Gdańsk is to the Prądnica River—just a stroll away, and you can sit by the water and watch the boats drift by. For lunch, I hit a small café on Zdobywczy Street where they serve pierogi that literally melt in your mouth. If you’re into art, the Gdańsk Shipyard museum is a quick tram ride away, and there’s a hidden mural on the side of the building across the street that’s totally worth a selfie. The only minor gripe: the Wi‑Fi is a bit spotty during peak tourist season, so if you’re a digital nomad, you might want a backup plan. But honestly, the vibe of the hotel, the easy parking, and the genuine friendliness of the staff make it a standout choice. It’s not just a place to stay; it’s a place you’ll remember because it feels like a slice of everyday life in Gdańsk, wrapped in the comfort of a well‑thought‑out 4‑star experience.

Reviews of Apartament Jaglana Gdańsk

• Viktor from Ukraine – 22 May 2025 (8/10)

  Все отлично)

• Huntingwhale from Canada – 7 May 2025 (8/10)

  Easy instructions, and easy key box. No issues at all with checking in. The location is perfect; close enough to the old town and tram station, but also away from the noise of the crowds. The kitchen is fully almost fully stocked. The unit has a beautiful bathroom and overall renovations. Really enjoyed the time here and if you can ignore what I said in the "cons" section, you will have a good time.
  
  What could be improved: Cleanliness was a bit of an issue. As other reviewers said, there is a strange smell as soon as you walk in. It is likely some kind of water leakage underneath the flooring that is making the smell. It does not go away and laughable that it's suggested to be from the cleaning. The place is also full of silverfish bugs. We stayed for a week and I probably killed 10-15 a day. They are nonstop in the bedroom, so we switched to sleeping in the living room after a few nights and it was a bit better. They are bred in moist conditions and that is another reason I believe there is some kind of leak underneath the flooring that needs to be looked at. Hopefully the owner believes that and actually investiages it, instead of making an aggressive comment like he did towards other guests in their reviews who mention it. I am not saying that to be rude; I had a great stay and recommend the place, but the owner should lift a few of the vinyl floorboards right when you enter and see what is going on.

• Hallgeir from Norway – 18 April 2025 (9/10)

  Spacious apartment with river view from 7th floor. Two Elevators next to door. Well equipped appartment. Relaxing balcony. Good value for the money. Serviceminded key arrangement.
  
  What could be improved: Kitchen oven makes smoke. The building should have been better soundproofed.

• Dainius from Norway – 27 February 2025 (2/10)

  Just good location.
  
  What could be improved: We had a very bad experience in this apartment. There was a strong smell immediately upon arrival. The apartment was not cleaned, or cleaned very poorly. The bedding seemed dirty, too few blankets. We stayed with 4 people and only received two blankets. The sofa is worn, the shower is not cleaned, the glass is dirty. The sink immediately clogs.
  The floors are dirty.
  The host speaks English with difficulty. The wrong address is given on the booking page. We do not recommend this.

• Michał from Poland – 24 February 2025 (9/10)

• Nicusor from Norway – 2 December 2024 (9/10)

  I was very satisfied with the apartment, very clean, close to the center, many shops around, very good price! I want to come back.

• Maryna from Poland – 25 November 2024 (9/10)

  Great location and very pleasant host. He was responsive and nice. Large bright appartment.
  
  What could be improved: You should be patient if the appartment is not very clean and bring some sugar, tea and coffee with you.

• Vzdarsky from Czech Republic – 29 October 2024 (8/10)

  Super location. 5 minutes from the downtown. Modern property. Spacious. Easy check in. Fast Wifi, big modern Smart TV. Nice bathroom.
  
  What could be improved: Broken double bed, caving in the middle, missing the middle support pole/mount. Unfortunately, I didn't find out until last night. Would have appreciated shower gel, dishwasher tablets and a couple of filters and some coffee.

• Tati from United Kingdom – 12 September 2024 (7/10)

  Self check-in was easy, perfect location for exploring Gdansk, right next to the river, shops and cafes. New building with lift. It was good to have a balcony.
  
  What could be improved: The bed was uncomfortable and creaked with every movement. Unfortunately, the towels and bedding seemed worn out and didn't smell fresh, so we had to wash them ourselves before use. The apartment lacked basic essentials such as coffee and washing powder, which was inconvenient. Being located on the top floor with no air conditioning made it unbearably hot, and the fan provided little relief. This could be a great place if the towels, bedding, and mattress were replaced, and ideally, air conditioning was installed.
