Aparthotel Stare Miasto
This room was beautiful! Exactly like the photos and the hotel is in a great location, two streets away from the main square and local to everything. Outside is pretty noisy at night but that’s to be expected when in the city centre so I didn’t mind. Thank you for a lovely stay!
