Beautiful One Bedroom Apartment Zamkowa by Rent like home Overview

Beautiful One Bedroom Apartment Zamkowa by Rent like home sits on a quiet corner of the Żuraw street, right next to the cobbled lanes that lead to the old port. I remember stepping out of the building on a crisp September morning, the sea air mixing with the scent of freshly baked rye bread from the bakery across the street. The check‑in was a breeze—no long lines, just a friendly local manager who handed me a keycard and pointed out the best spots for a quick coffee (a little café called „Czekolada i Kawa” is just a three‑minute walk away, trust me, their latte is the real deal). The apartment itself looks like a slice of a Gdańsk apartment you’d see in a film, but it’s actually a whole lot more comfortable. The living area is spacious, with a sofa that creaks a bit when you sink into it, but that’s part of its charm. The walls are painted in soothing earth tones, and there’s a small balcony overlooking the alley where the street musicians sometimes play.

The room itself is a bright, airy sanctuary. The bed is a solid oak frame with a mattress that feels like a cloud but also supports you properly—no sinking or sagging, which is a relief after a long day of exploring. The window frames are wide, letting in the afternoon light and the sound of the city—honestly, you can hear the distant bells of the St. Mary’s Church, and the occasional chatter of locals in Polish. I found myself pulling the heavy curtains open at 9 a.m. to watch the sunrise over the water, which is a moment you don’t want to miss. The bathroom is surprisingly modern, with a walk‑in shower that has this cool, mineral‑rich water from a natural spring—well, at least it feels that way, and the tiles are easy to wipe clean after a day of wandering. The kitchenette is fully equipped; the fridge is compact but functional, and there’s a stove with a small oven—perfect for reheating leftovers or making a quick omelet if you’re hungry at 2 a.m. (which I did, after a midnight walk along the Motława River).

Parking is a bit of a puzzle. The building itself has a small underground parking space, but it’s often taken by locals, so you might end up parking on the street in the morning. I remember parking a little way down the block, where there are a couple of spots left, but you have to be prepared for the occasional parking fine if you’re not sure about the rules. The noise level is surprisingly low for a city, except on weekends when the nightclubs in the city center start up and you can hear the bass vibrating through the walls—though that’s far enough that the apartment’s insulation does a decent job. If you’re a light sleeper, you might want to bring earplugs, but honestly, it’s mostly just the city’s hum and the occasional train passing by.

When you’re ready to go out, the location is a dream. The Old Town is a stone’s throw away—just a ten‑minute walk. You’ll find the Royal Way, the bustling market, and the iconic amber shops. There’s also the Gdańsk Crane (Żuraw), a historic landmark that’s a must‑see, and you can even take a river cruise from the nearby pier. For a quieter day, head over to the Oliwa district—there’s a beautiful cathedral with a massive pipe organ, and the park is perfect for a leisurely stroll. The apartment’s address, 80-839 Gdańsk, Poland, places it right in the heart of the city, but you’ll feel like you’ve slipped into a hidden gem that locals swear by. I’d say, if you’re looking for a place that feels like a home, with a touch of Gdańsk’s historic vibe and all the practical comforts you need, Beautiful One Bedroom Apartment Zamkowa by Rent like home is the spot for you.
