Vilao Apartments Overview
Look, I’ll be honest – when I first pulled up to Vilao Apartments, I wasn’t expecting much from a 3-star place. But you know what? Sometimes the unassuming spots end up surprising you the most. This place has that comfortable, lived-in feeling that makes you actually want to stick around instead of just crashing for the night.
The apartments themselves are pretty solid – I mean, they’re not going to win any design awards, but everything works the way it should, which is honestly more than I can say for some fancier places I’ve stayed. The kitchenette situation is actually decent if you’re the type who likes to grab groceries and do your own thing (and let’s face it, eating out every meal gets expensive fast). The beds are comfortable enough that I didn’t wake up feeling like I’d been hit by a truck, and the Wi-Fi was surprisingly reliable – important if you’re trying to get any work done or need to video call home. What really struck me was how quiet it gets at night; you’d think with apartments you might hear neighbors stomping around, but the sound insulation is better than expected.
The staff runs a pretty tight ship here too. Check-in was smooth, no weird surprises about deposits or fees they forgot to mention online. And here’s the thing that really won me over – when my key card decided to stop working on day three (because of course it did), they sorted it out in like two minutes without making me feel like I was inconveniencing them. That 8.9 rating makes total sense once you’re actually there for a few days. It’s not flashy, but it’s the kind of place where everything just… works. You’ve got enough space to spread out your stuff without living out of a suitcase, the shower pressure is decent, and there’s this weirdly cozy vibe that grows on you. I actually found myself hanging out in the little common area with coffee in the mornings, which isn’t usually my thing. If you’re looking for somewhere that feels more like a temporary home base than a sterile hotel room – and you don’t need someone fluffing your pillows every day – this place hits that sweet spot between comfort and value.

Kateryna from Ukraine (9/10)
Cozy, comfortable, big apartment in the heart of Kazimierz. Stylish and clean. Close to everything you want to visit in Kraków. There are an old fireplace (with candles) in the apartment so don't forget a lighter and you will have an extra portion of coziness.
Joanna from Poland (9/10)
We loved the whole apartment. We felt comfortable and nice there. The vintage things go very well with modern elements.
The place was very clean and well prepared to welcome guests :)).
The contact with the lady was super good.
We definitely recommend Vilao Apartments!
