City View Apartment Trzy Żagle with Balcony by Renters

City View Apartment Trzy Żagle with Balcony by Renters Overview

City View Apartment Trzy Żagle with Balcony by Renters sits on Olsztynska, a quiet slice of Gdańsk that feels like a secret corner of the city. From the moment I walked up the narrow stairs, the smell of freshly baked rye bread wafted from the bakery on Stary Rynek behind me, and the hum of the tram line on Staszic Street was a constant companion. Check‑in was a breeze—no long queues, just a friendly receptionist who handed me a keycard and a handwritten note telling me the best spots to grab a coffee near the Motława. Parking was surprisingly easy; a small underground lot just a block away offered covered spots, which is a lifesaver when the city gets crowded in July.

Inside, the apartment feels like a cozy loft with a generous balcony that spans the whole front. I swear the window frames are almost like a frame of a painting—clean, airy, and with a view that changes from a gentle river breeze in the mornings to a bustling harbor at dusk. The room is decorated in muted tones, but the little touches—a set of hand‑stitched cushions, a small terracotta pot of rosemary—make you feel like you’re staying in a local’s flat rather than a tourist hotel. The kitchenette is surprisingly well-equipped for a 4‑star place: a double‑sided stove, a French‑style espresso machine, and a fridge that actually feels spacious enough to hold a few extra jars of pickled herring from the local market. The bathroom? A sleek, glass‑lined shower that lets you see the outside view, which is perfect for morning routines.

What really makes this place stand out is the balcony. I spent the entire afternoon sipping a mug of strong Polish coffee, listening to the distant traffic on Gdańska Street and the chatter of people walking by on Olsztynska. The balcony’s wooden deck feels sturdy and warm beneath my feet, and the small garden plants add a pop of green that reminds you of the nearby Oliwa Park. It’s the kind of space where you can read a book, enjoy a quick snack, or simply watch the city’s life unfold—no noise from the street and a quiet that’s hard to find in other city accommodations. In winter, the balcony gets a blanket of snow that turns the whole view into a postcard, and in summer, the occasional breeze lifts the scent of pine from the old forest on the outskirts of the city.

Living in Gdańsk, I’ve seen my fair share of hotels, but City View Apartment Trzy Żagle with Balcony by Renters feels like a home that respects the city’s rhythm. The staff is approachable; they’re not the robotic kind you get at big chains but rather locals who know the best time to recommend a quiet lunch spot on Jagiellońska Street or a hidden gem of pierogi on the corner of Piłsudskiego. I didn’t have to ask twice about the nearest metro stop—the info board in the lobby was straightforward, and the staff even offered to drop me a little map (with a doodle of the best tram route to the beach). The noise level in the apartment is practically zero; the only sounds are your own footsteps and the occasional gull outside. For travelers who want to explore the city without needing a car, the location is perfect—just a short walk to the old port, the cathedral, and the bustling nightlife of the Gdańsk Old Town.

If you’re planning a trip, I’d recommend staying here during the shoulder seasons—late spring or early autumn—when the city is lively but not overrun, and the prices are slightly lower. Just be ready for the occasional rain in the evenings; a small umbrella and a raincoat will keep you dry on the cobblestones of the old town. In any case, City View Apartment Trzy Żagle with Balcony by Renters offers a genuine slice of Gdańsk life, a comfortable space, and a view that makes you want to stay a little longer. It’s the kind of place you’ll recommend to friends because it’s more than a room—it’s an experience.
