8.9Verified guest“The location was fantastic – just a few minutes' walk from the main square. The staff were friendly and always ready to help. Being so central, it was easy to reach all the main tourist spots. They also helped organise tours to the Salt Mines and Auschwitz.”
8.9Verified guest“Everything was close by – shops, attractions, and public transport. I could walk to the bus and train stations, and there was no need for a taxi from the airport because the train service was excellent. The staff spoke good English and were very obliging. Plenty of great restaurants nearby, especially La Fontaine. An ideal base.”

Basic and clean, with really helpful staff. Wi-Fi worked well and the rooms were a decent size. A delightful wooden building right in the historical centre – a great base for sightseeing.”
