Apartament Arkada

The owners were so helpful and friendly. It’s an easy three-minute walk to the promenade, with a park, restaurant, breakfast, ice cream, and lovely views nearby. A really nice place to unwind. I recommend it.

Parking was a complete mess. The owner let other hotel guests park my car, which left me stuck there all day and unable to go sightseeing since they were up in the mountains. When I asked for a discount because of that, the owner refused. The room itself felt like a standard from the communist era, and the wardrobe was falling apart with age. Even sitting on the toilet, you’d bump your feet and head against the wall. I honestly can’t recommend it.

We had a ground-floor room with a TV, and the bathroom had two showers. The toiletries were fine too. But we cut our three-day stay short by a day because my wife couldn’t put up with the landlady. She was extremely irritating and fussy about all sorts of things, kept shutting off the kitchen gas, and wouldn’t let us bring shoes inside to dry because the tiles might get damaged. We’d come on vacation as a family, so that made the stay hard to enjoy.

It’s a handy base for the Śnieżka route, and the place is in a good spot logistically. Across the way, there are tasty Polish meals, including pierogi, at prices lower than downtown. A buffet breakfast is served 20 meters from the house for 19 PLN, and it’s delicious. Inside, it was warm and pleasant, and the mattresses were really comfortable. I recommend it.
