Flatbook – City Center Apartments Brabank with Parking Overview

I landed at Flatbook – City Center Apartments Brabank with Parking one bright morning in late September, the kind of time when Gdańsk is still a bit breezy but the streets are starting to buzz with tourists. The address, 2 Stara Stocznia, sits right on the edge of the Old Town’s cobblestones, which means you can step out of the building and—well—you’re basically in the middle of the action. A quick stroll takes you to the Motława River, where the Gdańsk Crane still stands proud, and you can see the colorful banners of the festivals that the city loves to throw. I was pleasantly surprised by the parking situation: there’s a small underground lot right across the street that’s free if you book a space in advance, and if you’re not a member, you can still find a spot in the nearby street parking—just be ready to deal with a few meters of distance to your apartment, which is easy if you’re carrying a bag. The check‑in was pretty smooth; the front desk staff handed me a keycard and a quick rundown of the Wi‑Fi password—no long lines, no fuss. I mean, you could have been at a five‑star hotel and actually had a quick chat with the concierge about the best pier to visit at sunset, but that’s not what this place is all about.

The apartment itself is a neat, two‑room layout with a kitchenette that’s surprisingly well‑equipped for a city center stay. The living area is cozy, with a sofa that’s just the right amount of plush to sink into after a day of walking. I found the linen to be soft, and the bathroom had a small but efficient shower—no fancy spa vibes, but it definitely met the needs. The real charm was the little touches: a stack of local maps on the coffee table, a small bottle of Gdańsk’s own vodka for quick toast, and a window that opens onto the street where you can hear the distant clink of glasses from the bars on Piwna Street. It’s the kind of sound that tells you you’re in the heart of the city, not just in a hotel. I did notice that early mornings, around 6 a.m., the street streetlights flicker and the traffic hums—nothing too loud, just the usual city rhythm. By 10 p.m., the noise level drops, and you can actually hear the faint whirring of the city’s electric trams in the distance, which is oddly comforting.

When I stepped out of the apartment, I took a leisurely walk down to the waterfront. Turns out, the area around the Pier (Długi Targ) is a hidden gem for brunch—there’s a little café that serves pierogi with a twist, and the owner will tell you the best spot to sit for the sunrise. If you’re up for a bit of a stroll, you can hop on the old tram line that runs straight to the Royal Castle in the Old Town; the ride itself is a little scenic, with the river reflecting the morning light. I also discovered a small street market on Złota Street that’s perfect for picking up fresh bread and a local cheese—something you don’t find in the big chain stores. Honestly, the best part of staying at Flatbook – City Center Apartments Brabank with Parking was the sense of being in a real neighborhood rather than a tourist trap. The locals are friendly, the streets are lively, and the apartment offered a quiet base after a day of exploration. If you’re planning a trip to Gdańsk and want to feel like you’re part of the city’s everyday life, this place checks every box—comfort, convenience, and a touch of the city’s soul.
