Długa Comfort Apartments

Długa Comfort Apartments Overview

Długa Comfort Apartments sits right on Długa 77/78, smack in the middle of Gdańsk’s bustling waterfront. I arrived on a humid August evening, and the first thing that struck me was the front desk’s friendly face—she handed me a digital key and a quick walk-through of the building’s security system like a local showing you the secret entrance to a speakeasy. The check‑in was quick, no long lines, and honestly, that was a relief after the usual airport chaos. The building itself is a sleek, modern block, but the lobby has this warm, wooden panel that feels like a cozy corner in a friend’s living room, not a corporate lobby. I was a bit surprised at the quiet inside; the street outside is busy, but the elevator doors almost close before the rush of pedestrians hits the sidewalk.

Walking out, I could hear the waves of the Motława River mixing with the distant hum of the city. A couple of blocks away, there’s a little pierogi stand—my go‑to for a quick bite that smells like fresh dumplings and a dash of smoked fish. If you’re looking for something more upscale, just a 10‑minute stroll brings you to the Royal Route, with its historic palaces and the bustling market at Stogi that’s full of colorful stalls selling everything from local cheeses to handmade lace. For a quieter afternoon, the park at Szeroka is a perfect escape: benches, a playground, and a small pond that reflects the sky. I found that the best time to walk in the Old Town is early in the morning or right after sunset—crowds thin out, and the cobblestones feel cool under your boots. In the evenings, the streetlights give the city a warm, almost nostalgic glow, especially along the old harbor where you can hear the faint sound of ferries.

The apartment itself is a well‑designed 1‑bedroom space, about 30 square meters—enough to feel spacious without feeling cluttered. The living area opens onto a balcony that offers a view of the river; I spent a whole evening just sipping coffee and watching the sunset over the wooden docks. The bed is a king‑size with memory foam sheets that hug you just right—though a bit too soft for my liking if you’re a firm sleeper. The bathroom is modern, with a rain shower that feels more like a spa than a hotel feature, and the towels are thick but not overly plush, which is the sweet spot for travelers who don’t want to weigh down luggage. Wi‑Fi is decent, but I noticed a hiccup during the night when the signal dropped for a few minutes—small glitch, but worth mentioning if you’re working. The kitchen is fully equipped: a stove, a dishwasher, and a coffee machine that brews like a barista’s. I found the fridge surprisingly well-sized for a one‑person stay; you can keep a few drinks and a small snack without feeling cramped.

Parking is a breeze; there’s a small underground lot that’s usually free for the first 30 minutes, and street parking is available on Długa and neighboring streets, though you have to watch for the daily meter cycle. Noise-wise, the apartment is surprisingly quiet—even with the street traffic outside—thanks to thick windows and a double‑glazed door. I did catch the occasional honk or the rhythmic clatter of a tram passing by, but it never disturbed my sleep. The only real critique? The elevator feels a bit sluggish when it’s crowded, but that’s a minor inconvenience compared to the overall experience.

Overall, Długa Comfort Apartments feels like a local’s home, not a tourist trap. It’s practical, comfortable, and you get a taste of everyday life in Gdańsk without sacrificing the small comforts you need. If you
