Wow

10.0

Well, we certainly got lucky with this one. It's about as close to the main square as it's possible to get without actually being on it. On the other side of the block is Szczepański square which has some really good restaurants. In fact almost every building in the area is a bar, cafe or restaurant. Gorgeous design, very spacious and comfortable, all the amenities you could want with absolutely no fuss. We had a lovely big room at the front with a sort of shared balcony, but all the noise from the bars below disappeared with the doors shut. We didn't eat in the restaurant or have breakfast there so can't comment, but spent a fair bit of time in the rooftop bar and had a couple of snacks which were excellent. Loved it.
