Apartament w cichej okolicy 5 minut od centrum Overview

Apartament w cichej okolicy 5 minut od centrum popped up on my radar when I was hunting for a place that felt like a quiet nest but still let me hop on a tram to the Old Town in a jiffy. The address, Długa Grobla 8/47, 80-754 Gdańsk, is tucked into a narrow street that blends old brick façades with a splash of modern signage. When I pulled up, the parking was surprisingly easy – a little lot tucked behind a bakery, and the staff at the front desk was already ready with a warm smile. The check‑in was almost instant; they handed me a key card and a quick map that marked the nearest tram stop, the coffee shop on Motława, and the tiny street market that’s a must‑visit for fresh pierogi.

I stepped into the apartment and was hit by that unmistakable Gdańsk scent – a mix of sea breeze, fresh bread, and a hint of diesel from the nearby bus lanes. The living area is surprisingly spacious, with a low‑profile sofa that’s perfect for a quick nap after a day of wandering. The decor is a lazy mix of mid‑century pieces and local art pieces, the kind that you only spot when you’re looking for them. The Wi‑Fi is fast enough to stream a movie on the couch, and the kitchen is equipped with everything from a kettle to an induction stove, so you can whip up a quick breakfast at 7 a.m. before the city wakes up. The noise level is a sweet spot – you can hear the distant hum of tram wheels and the occasional shout from a fisherman at the pier, but nothing that rattles your sleep. The windows face a quiet courtyard, where a few trees sway gently; it’s like having your own little green bubble in the city.

What really makes this place stand out is how it feels like a local’s home. The front desk staff, a couple of young Poles, told me about the best hidden bars in the city, and the next day I found myself in a tiny speakeasy behind a bookshop on Halińskiego Street. To get to the Old Town, you just hop on tram 1 from the stop right outside the apartment and it’s a five‑minute ride to the heart of the city – no need to wrestle with a GPS. When I walked back to the apartment on a rainy afternoon, the floor tiles were damp and the walls smelled faintly of wet stone, a sensory reminder that this place is right at the edge of the Motława River. It’s also worth mentioning that the apartment has a small balcony that offers a view of the street below – you can watch the locals doing their daily routines, the street musicians, and the occasional family with a stroller. The only minor critique I have is that the bathroom’s tile can get a little slippery after rain, so a cautionary step is wise during wet days.

In short, Apartament w cichej okolicy 5 minut od centrum feels like a secret spot that’s still close enough to all the action. If you’re looking for a place that lets you rest easy, yet keeps you in the loop of what Gdańsk’s streets are offering, this is the spot. I can honestly say that it’s been a home away from home for me, and I’ll be back next summer – or even next week if the city calls.

• Dimitar from Croatia – 8 November 2022 (9/10)

  Great apartment, spacious, really well equipped, clean, super kind and helpful owner, the location is about 8 minutes from the center which is great.
  
  What could be improved: The bed in the bedroom is really squeaky which can be annoying at night, and the bathtub should have a bigger protection against splashes of water when taking a shower, because everything is wet after you take a shower.

• Montsec from Spain – 31 October 2022 (7/10)

  It was big, close to the center, and clean.
  
  What could be improved: The bed was super uncomfortable. It was making sounds the whole night.
  The house wasn't that clean and the cooking area + cooking utensils either. But we didn't use them.

• Petra from Slovakia – 18 July 2022 (6/10)

  Apartment is really close to the city center, by walk is about 8 min to the main atractions. We came by car, so we booked this apartment mainly because of the location and the really good parking at this place (you have there your private parking place in the garage), so you don't have to worry about paying for parking in the city center. The fact that the apartment is located in a nice new building with good equipment was also a big advantage. In the parter were for example grocery store or bike rental.
  
  What could be improved: When we came to the apartment, there was no soap in the bathroom, no kitchen towel (just the napkins) and dirty kitchen sink full of water, because it was clogged. Also the cutlery was dirty. In the kitchen there is only one saucepot and one pan, so nothing extra, if you want to cook something normal. There are large windows, so if you want privacy, you have to close the curtains. But the curtain was broken in the living room, which fell every time and finally fell on me in such a way that it injured my leg to the blood. But the biggest problem was the bed. There is a small (only 140cm wide) terrible creaking cheap bed with a really bad soft mattress where you feel like you are on a trampoline. I don't tend to be oversensitive, but this was a disaster. Our backs hurt and it ruined our whole day. The other days we decided to sleep on the couch, which was more comfortable, but it was still a couch. I was frustrated that I was paying for something like this. Also the host was strange. After reservation I only received an automatic reply with information in Polish (so I must used translator to understand how to get into apartment) and when we were leaving, she ran into the bathroom, when I was !!on toilet!! and asked me to leave the apartment with not very friendly tone (it was exactly 10 am).
