Family Apartment in Downtown Cracow by Rent like home Overview

You know what struck me first about this place? It actually feels like someone’s home – not in that sterile “home away from home” way hotels always promise, but genuinely lived-in and comfortable. I mean, when you’re walking through Krakow’s Old Town dodging tour groups and street performers, finding a family apartment that doesn’t try to be something it’s not is honestly refreshing.

The location is pretty fantastic, though I should mention the address situation is a bit unclear on booking sites – you’ll get the exact details once you confirm. But trust me, being in downtown Cracow (and yes, they spell it the old way) puts you right where you want to be. I could hear the clip-clop of horse carriages heading to the Main Square in the mornings, which was charming until about 6 AM when the first tour groups started gathering. The apartment itself has that solid, old-building feel – thick walls that keep most of the street noise out, high ceilings that make the rooms feel bigger than they are. Rent like home manages several properties in the area, and this one definitely feels like they picked owners who actually care about the space rather than just cramming in as many beds as possible.

What I really appreciated was how the place handles families – there’s actual room to spread out, a kitchen that’s not just for show (though the coffee situation could be better, honestly), and enough space that parents aren’t constantly shushing kids. The 8.8 rating makes sense when you factor in that three-star properties in Krakow’s center usually run the gamut from “surprisingly decent” to “why did I book this,” and this one lands solidly in the former category. The check-in process was smooth enough, though like most apartment rentals, you’re dealing with key exchanges rather than a front desk – just plan accordingly if you’re arriving late. Storage space is actually generous, which matters when you’re doing that whole European family vacation thing with way too much luggage. I’d definitely stay again, especially during shoulder season when the Old Town isn’t completely overrun and you can actually enjoy those morning coffee runs to the local bakery without fighting through crowds of people taking selfies.

    Super poloha pár minút od hlavného námestia, tichá lokalita, dobrá dostupnosť, množstvo obchodíkov a reštaurácií, dobrá komunikácia. Dobre vybavená kuchyňa- potešil kávovar aj sendvičovač. Super wifi😉

    Opinie wystawiam dla apartamentu na ul. Grzegórzecka 67H. Apartament, który zarezerwowałam w ostatniej chwili przed przyjazdem do Krakowa nie był jeszcze gotowy. Bardzo miły Pan zaproponowała nam zmianę apartamentu i to była bardzo dobra decyzja.
    Apartament w cichej lokalizacji nowe budownictwo na siódmym pietrze. Klatka schodowa, winda i sam apartament wszystko było idealnie czyste. Dwa duże pokoje i salon do tego dwie łazienki duże tarasy pełne wyposażenie kuchni było wszystko co potrzeba. Serdecznie dziękuję za tak udany pobyt. Pozdrawiam przemiłą obsługę i do zobaczenia następnym razem.
