Categories

Cleanliness
1
Several guests praised a clean apartment and fresh bedding, but multiple reports of an unpleasant bathroom smell and a clogged sink/drain lowered the cleanliness impression.
Service
1
Communication was frequently described as quick and helpful (e.g., immediate code change), but there were failures in callback and a lack of follow-through on reported issues, yielding a mixed but overall slightly positive service sentiment.
Location
1
Consistently strong positive mentions: central position, close to Museum II World War, shops and Żabka, and generally described as 'very good' or 'great' location.
Room Quality
1
Apartment was described as spacious and well-equipped by some, but guests reported problems such as two separate mattresses creating an uncomfortable gap and a broken kettle, reducing room-quality scores.
Amenities
1
Amenities list is mixed: positives include dishwasher, coffee/tea, free parking and swivel TV, but notable negatives (no microwave, broken kettle, promised replacement not delivered) weighed heavily down the rating.
Value for Money
1
Multiple reviewers explicitly praised the price-to-quality ratio, calling the value excellent and highlighting positive cost-performance.
Food and Beverage
1
Minimal F&B offerings: guests appreciated provided tea/coffee and coffee capsules, but there is no full food service and offerings are limited, producing a slightly negative net sentiment.
Overall Experience
1
Overall impressions skew positive — many guests would return or recommend — but recurring operational and amenity issues (smell, plumbing, broken kettle, parking-to-apartment signage) tempered the experience.

Decisamente da rivedere
Pros:

Buona la posizione

Cons:

L'appartamento viene pubblicizzato come una struttura di 38 m², ma la realtà è ben diversa: a occhio e croce lo spazio effettivo si aggira a stento intorno ai 20 m.q. Le foto presenti sul sito si sono rivelate decisamente ingannevoli, chiaramente scattate con un obiettivo grandangolare per far sembrare gli ambienti ampi e ariosi. In realtà la sistemazione è molto sacrificata. Peccato, perché la correttezza sulla descrizione degli spazi è fondamentale per non creare false aspettative negli ospiti. Anche il terrazzo è estremamente piccolo e ci si sta a fatica in due.Inoltre non è insonorizzato bene, anche con la finestra chiusa in camera si sentono i rumori dalla strada. A questo si aggiunge un check-in automatico decisamente problematico. La struttura bombarda l'ospite di mail e messaggi pieni di informazioni, anziché essere chiari su cose importanti tipo il codice di accesso (che viene dato solo 15 minuti prima dell’orario di check in - check in che deve essere fatto su un altro sito della struttura) è fornito su 5 numeri quando in realtà lo zero serve solo ad attivare il citofono (l’abbiamo scoperto dopo un buon 10 minuti di imprecazioni). Inoltre, sul posto ci sono due numeri civici (tra cui il 40) e non era affatto chiaro quale fosse quello corretto. Tanta confusione per un servizio che dovrebbe essere immediato.

Hat alles gut gepasst.
Pros:

Die Lage ist gut, um die Stadt zu erkunden. In unmittelbarer Nähe sind zwei spannende Museen.
Großer Apartment-Komplex, Zugang erfolgt kontaktlos. Parkplatz in der Tiefgarage.

Cons:

Zu Beginn hat es mit dem Zugangscode nicht auf Anhieb geklappt. Nach einem Anruf konnte das aber geklärt werden.

Pros:

Apartment is run by a company and they have on call customer support that is quick to respond. Apartment was tiny but clean and modern and we could use both the bed and the couch for sleeping. It was in close walking distance to the city centre but outside of the touristy places so we felt like locals.

Cons:

The apartment had "building code" and "apartment code". It was not clear from the "building code" that i should first press first digit, then wait a bit and then put in the code. I was attempting to put it all together and was failing. The customer support was prompt to respond in WhatsApp chat so it was fine. The isntructions had a small note about how to lock the apartment when leaving and it was not working properly so I sent them a video and hopefully they will fix it. Because the locking sequence was not working, we simply carried a physical key with us around.

Pros:

Нам важно было, чтобы была парковка, это очень удобно, так как в Гданьске с парковками проблема. Квартира подходит для длительного проживания, в ней всё есть: плита, посуда, кофеварка, посудомойка, стиральная машина, фен. Всё очень даже чисто и аккуратно. До всех достопримечательностей идти 10-15 минут , даже здорово, прогуляться можно)))

Cons:

Можно было бы оставить пару капсул для стирки. Так как покупать ты не будешь, а стиральная машина есть))

Overall, the stay was significantly affected by poor sleeping conditions.
Pros:

The apartment was clean and the location was convenient.

Cons:

The property was advertised with a double bed, but in reality it consists of two separate beds that move apart during the night.

This made it very difficult to sleep properly, and both of us experienced back pain as a result.

We reported the issue during our stay, but no effective solution was provided. The compensation offered was minimal and did not reflect the inconvenience.
