“We had a great stay – the room had everything we needed, including a small kitchenette with a kettle, cups, plates, and utensils. Everything was clean and well‑maintained. The location was perfect, close to the mountains and within walking distance of both the centre and the lower station to Kasprowy Wierch. The double bed was comfortable with cosy blankets, and the heating worked well. We had a lovely view of the snow‑capped mountains from the balcony. Free parking was a bonus – a peaceful and convenient place for city and mountain hiking. Honestly, we couldn’t fault it.”
