Apartment with Terrace and Gym in Gdańsk by Renters Overview

Apartment with Terrace and Gym in Gdańsk by Renters is something I’ve kept on my “must‑visit” list for years. I finally booked a stay last summer, and honestly, it lived up to the hype—if you’re the kind of traveler who loves a mix of city buzz and a private escape. The place sits on Gdanska street, right next to that quirky little café called “Zielony Kawa” where the barista knows your order before you even greet her. You can’t miss the green sign on the building, and there’s a tiny plaque that says “Apartment with Terrace and Gym in Gdańsk by Renters” in bold letters—no, that’s just the copy from the listing, but the actual building feels like a neighborhood favorite.

From the moment I walked in, the walk‑in closet and the living area felt like a home away from home. The balcony—yes, that’s the “terrace part—offers a view of the cobblestone lanes and the sea breeze that smells faintly of salt and roasted potatoes from the market stalls below. I can’t say I’ve never seen a place with a gym that’s actually used, but the small workout area here is surprisingly functional, and the weight rack looks brand new. Check‑in was quick; the host was on a phone call, but she left a handwritten note on the kitchen counter that said, “Enjoy the street music later—there’s a brass band that plays every Friday!” And I felt right at home.

Parking was a breeze because the building is tucked into a narrow street with a small, underground parking space that was already yours before you even got there. The only thing that made me pause was the noise from the street at night—though it’s just the usual traffic and a few late‑night buses. It’s not a full‑on siren storm; you can still hear the faint hum of the city, which I find oddly comforting. I stayed there in the shoulder season—late September—so it was quiet, no crowds at the beach, and the terrace was the perfect spot for a sunset drink. The locals say the best pastries in town are at the bakery on Melanowski, just a ten‑minute walk, and I couldn’t resist. The seasoning on the pierogi was so authentic it made me want to shout “Prawda!” (truth). The only critique is that the bathroom mirror is a bit warped, but honestly, that’s a small detail that hardly affects the overall vibe.

What I genuinely enjoyed was the connection to the neighborhood. The host, a friendly local who introduced herself as Marta, took a moment to point out the best fish market nearby and even handed me a map that highlighted the “golden hour” walk to the Old Town. That personal touch made me feel like I was part of the city’s rhythm, not just a tourist passing through. The apartment’s Wi‑Fi is fast enough for streaming my favorite shows, and the sound system is decent—great for a nightcap or a casual dinner with friends. The only thing I’d add is that the balcony can feel a bit drafty in the mornings, so bring a light jacket if you’re staying early.

All in all, staying at Apartment with Terrace and Gym in Gdańsk by Renters felt like a smooth blend of convenience and charm. The location is a stone’s throw from the marina and the bustling market, but the building itself offers a quiet retreat with a view of the city lights. If you’re looking for a place that feels like a local’s home with a side of class, this spot is yours. I’ll definitely be back, maybe for a spring visit, when the air smells fresh and the streets are alive with new music. And next time, I might try the pastry from that bakery on Melanowski—because you can’t get the same experience from a hotel in a different city, right?
