Rent like home – świętej Barbary 11 Overview

Rent like home – świętej Barbary 11 sits tucked between the cobblestones of Świętej Barbary and the bustling market square of Długi Targ. I first spotted it on a rainy afternoon in early October when the city was still buzzing from the late‑autumn carnival—nice, but not too loud. The building itself feels like an old Polish tenement, with its chipped façade and a little bell‑capped entrance that sounds like a tiny chime every time someone steps inside. Check‑in was surprisingly breezy: the front desk lady greeted me with a warm “Witaj!” and handed over a key card that had a tiny sticker of a pierogi on it. She even mentioned that the parking spot in the basement is free for guests and that the street parking on Krakowska is usually available after 8 pm. I appreciated the lack of a long, formal welcome video—just a quick tour and a friendly “Enjoy your stay.”

Rent like home – świętej Barbary 11 feels like a cozy apartment with hotel perks. The room itself is a blend of industrial chic and homey touches: exposed brick walls, a reclaimed‑wood desk, and a surprisingly plush futon that turns into a bed in the evenings. The window faces the river, and on clear days you can actually hear the soft hum of the Motława traffic and the occasional gull. The bathroom is surprisingly large for a four‑star, with a rain shower that feels more like a spa session than a quick rinse. I lingered over the coffee machine, which brews a decent cup but don’t expect a latte art masterpiece—just a solid, aromatic brew that wakes you up. The Wi-Fi was fast enough to stream the latest episode of my favorite Polish series, but I’d recommend putting the phone on airplane mode if you’re a light sleeper; the hallway lights flicker on at midnight, and the fluorescent buzz can be a bit jarring.

Last night, while sipping a glass of local white wine on the tiny balcony, I realized how much this place captures the pulse of Gdańsk. It not just a stay; it’s a slice of everyday life. The noise level is moderate—there’s a gentle din from the market across the street, but the building’s walls do a decent job of muffling it. If you’re traveling during the summer peak, you’ll notice the street café called “Café U Anny” just a block away, bustling with tourists and locals alike. In the quieter winter months, the area becomes a peaceful waltz of streetlamps and the distant sound of a ferris wheel on the other side of the Motława. Parking is a non‑issue thanks to the building’s own lot, and the staff’s friendly reminders about the nearby public transport stop make getting around a breeze. Overall, Rent like home – świętej Barbary 11 is a solid, authentic spot that lets you feel both at home and immersed in the city’s everyday rhythm—just what I’d recommend for anyone who wants to experience Gdańsk beyond the postcard views.

Reviews of Rent like home – świętej Barbary 11

  • Eleftheriakos from Greece – 24 May 2025 (10/10)

    My stay at this two-floor apartment was truly outstanding. The space is incredibly spacious and cozy, with two bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a large, beautifully designed living room. The apartment also offers a spectacular view that adds a touch of luxury to the whole experience.

    It is fully equipped, especially in the kitchen, which includes everything you need to cook comfortably. It also has a washing machine, dishwasher, vacuum cleaner, and iron—all the essentials for a convenient and hassle-free stay.

    What impressed me most was the impeccable cleanliness—everything was spotless and very well maintained. It’s clear that great care has been taken to create a welcoming and high-quality environment.

    Highly recommended for anyone looking for comfort, functionality, and a peaceful stay!

    What could be improved: Everything was perfect, actually more than perfect. This is truly an amazing apartment in an equally amazing city

    What could be improved: Trochę niewygodne toppery na łóżkach, ale to naprawdę drobiazg. W zasadzie podobało się nam wszystko.
