CracWoW K8 No.1 Apartment Overview

Okay, so here’s the thing about CracWoW K8 No.1 Apartment – the name might sound a bit quirky (honestly, I chuckled when I first saw it), but don’t let that throw you off because this place absolutely delivers. I mean, you don’t get a 9.4 rating by accident, right? When I first walked in, I was genuinely surprised by how thoughtfully everything was put together. It’s technically a 3-star place, but it feels like someone actually cares about the details rather than just checking boxes on some corporate checklist.

The apartment setup is what really makes this work – you’re not crammed into some tiny hotel room where you can barely open your suitcase without hitting the bed. There’s actual space to spread out, and honestly, after a long day of exploring, having a proper living area where you can just… exist… makes such a difference. The kitchen situation is pretty solid too, which I know sounds boring but trust me, being able to make coffee exactly how you like it in the morning (or grab a late-night snack without paying hotel minibar prices) is clutch. The whole place has this lived-in comfort that you just don’t get with those sterile chain hotels – you know what I mean? Like someone’s grandmother decorated it with actual taste instead of some design committee.

What really impressed me though was how quiet everything stays, even during busier periods. I’m usually pretty sensitive to noise when I’m trying to sleep, but the soundproofing here is surprisingly good. Check-in was refreshingly straightforward too – none of that standing-around-the-lobby-for-twenty-minutes nonsense. The staff seems to actually know what they’re doing, which honestly shouldn’t be remarkable but… well, you’ve probably stayed in places where it is. Look, I’ll be straight with you – this isn’t going to be the fanciest place you’ve ever stayed, and if you’re expecting marble bathrooms and a concierge in a suit, you’re looking in the wrong spot. But if you want somewhere that feels more like borrowing a really nice friend’s apartment than staying in Generic Hotel Room #247, and you appreciate when the little things actually work properly, this place gets it right. That 9.4 rating isn’t just people being nice – it’s earned.

Reviews of CracWoW K8 No.1 Apartment

  • Rose from United Kingdom (10/10)

    The apartment was really clean and comfortable.
    We went as a group of 3 and were more than happy with the amount of space we each had.
    The bathroom is a little small as other reviews have mentioned but not a problem at all.
    The location is great, 5 ish minute walk into the main square. We were very impressed with how quiet the apartment was. We left at 5am one morning for an excursion and there were still loads of people making noise in the street but you couldn't hear a thing inside. There was a little bit of noise from apartment 2 when coming / going in the shared hall, but other than that, silence. It was also very warm, which we were grateful for as it was 1 degree outside.

  • Ionut from Romania (9/10)

    Excellent location just outside the center, in an old but nicely renovated apartment. There are plenty of places nearby to have breakfast, eat and have a drink. There is also a Carrefour Express next door.

  • Carol from United Kingdom (10/10)

    The apartment was big and spacious, with everything we needed. It was quiet although on a key route close to the trams. It was a short walk to the main square for the city. There is a grocery shop next door open 24 hours. There is a hairdryer which was not listed on facilities there is a bakery attached to the property so each morning you get a smell of baking which was lovely.

  • _gil from United Kingdom (6/10)
