HOUSEHOST Apartment: Miodowa 42/8b street Overview

You know what struck me first about this place? The address alone – Miodowa 42/8b – sounds like something out of a European novel, and honestly, that’s exactly the vibe you get when you actually find it. I mean, tracking down apartment-style accommodations can be a bit of a treasure hunt sometimes, but HOUSEHOST has this one dialed in pretty well.

The thing about staying in an actual apartment versus a traditional hotel is that you really get to live like a local for a few days, and this spot nails that feeling. Three stars might not sound like much on paper, but that 9.2 rating tells the real story here – sometimes the best places are the ones that focus on getting the basics absolutely right rather than flashy extras you’ll never use. The space itself has this lived-in comfort that makes you want to kick off your shoes and actually relax, not just crash between sightseeing marathons. I particularly loved how quiet it gets in the evenings (well, most evenings anyway – you’re still in the city, so there’s the occasional late-night conversation drifting up from the street, but nothing that kept me awake).

What really won me over was the kitchen setup – and I say this as someone who usually survives on hotel continental breakfast and whatever street food looks promising. Having actual counter space and a proper fridge means you can hit up local markets and grocery stores, which honestly becomes half the fun of the trip. The morning light comes in just right if you’re the type who likes coffee with a view, and there’s something satisfying about making your own breakfast while planning the day ahead. Check-in was surprisingly smooth too, though I’d definitely recommend confirming the exact apartment number beforehand since building navigation can get a bit maze-like (learned that one the hard way on my first visit to a similar setup in Prague). The HOUSEHOST team seems to have their communication down to a science, which matters more than you’d think when you’re dealing with keys and codes instead of a traditional front desk.

  • Aikaterinim from Greece (10/10)

    Great apartment! Had everything I needed. In a very convenient neighborhood for me, very close to all the bars/restaurants in the Jewish part of Kraków. Just 15 to 20 minutes by feet to get to the center or to the Wawel tower. It is a city that you enjoy going everywhere by feet!

  • Dwn from United Kingdom (8/10)

    Everything was great in the apartment and Hubert the host was very good too

  • Pirashvili from Georgia (10/10)

    First of all I want to mention that communication with host was amazingly good. Secondly the location is great. Its 15 minute walk to Wawel Castle and 20 minute walk to the old town (Stare Miasto). Also there are many cozy cafes around. But if you want to go have fun, loud music and karaoke I recommend to go to the old town.
    The apartment was clean and nice. The bed was very comfortable. We stayed 3 nights and it was a really nice experience ✨️. It is very nice for 2 people. I would definitely recommend to stay here. If I am in Krakow again, I will stay here for sure!!!
