Spacious Family Apartment in Gdańsk by Renters Overview

I booked my stay at Spacious Family Apartment in Gdańsk by Renters after seeing that 9.2 rating, and honestly, it was a solid choice. The building sits on Marcin Dragana, 17F – a quiet, cobblestone street that’s just a stone’s throw from the old town’s bustling market square. The host sent a photo of the keyless entry lock, so I wasn’t scrambling with a suitcase at 8 am. The check‑in was smooth; the host, Marek, rang the doorbell in a friendly tone, and I got a quick tour of the apartment – no awkward hallway meetings, just a hand‑shaken “welcome.”

Walking out, the first thing you notice is the scent of fresh coffee from a nearby café on Jagiellońska, which spills into the open balcony. From there, you can hear the faint hum of tram lines 1, 4, and 5 – that’s the city’s heartbeat. The apartment itself is a little larger than a standard studio, with a living area that opens onto a balcony where you can smell the sea breezes coming from the Motława River. There’s a small kitchenette, fully equipped with a stove, fridge, and a vintage kettle that looks like it belongs in an old Polish kitchen. I mean, the kettle’s old‑school charm made the mornings feel like a local’s, not a tourist’s. The bed is a queen with a memory foam mattress; the linens are soft, and there’s a blanket that’s just the right weight for the winter chill.

Noise-wise, the apartment is surprisingly quiet. The only sounds you catch are the distant laughter of locals at the nearby bars or the occasional siren from a traffic intersection – nothing that wakes you up. If you’re a night owl, just keep the balcony door closed; you’ll still hear the gentle murmur of the river. Parking can be a hassle, but the host pointed out a small, public parking lot just under the street on Marcin Dragana – it’s free, but you have to be quick. The building itself has a small storage locker, which is a lifesaver if you’re traveling with a lot of luggage. The apartment also has a Wi‑Fi speed that’s fast enough for streaming, though the signal dips a bit when the tram passes over the building.

I stayed there in late October, so the city was buzzing with the autumn festival near the Old Town – the streets were lined with lanterns, and the air smelled of roasted chestnuts. The sun would

Hotels near me in Gdansk offer convenient access to the old town, where guests can easily walk to Neptune’s Fountain, St. Mary’s Church, and the famous Long Market.
