Noclegi Helvet

Fine for a place to sleep if you end up lost at night. They only take cash.

The owners were extremely kind and helpful, and they did their best to sort out an issue for us. The room was spacious, with a comfortable bed and a roomy bathroom. Being near the market square is useful, since most services, shops, and trailheads are there. The downside is the noise: Żabka is in the same building, and people who bought and drank too much there, or got angry when they couldn’t get to the store that night, made us worry about vehicles left overnight. The owners helped with the problem, so we still give it five stars.

The location is a plus, but I wouldn’t stay here again, especially if you have allergies. It may be clean in the middle of the room, but the wood paneling and beams were terribly dusty. The sheets and bedding were clean but torn. Domestos had been poured over the toilet bowl, which was visible, and there was mold in the shower. The staff seemed overzealous and artificially nice, and the owner kept changing his mind. He first agreed that we could extend check-in by staying in a covered part of the common area, then on departure day told us to leave the building.

We paid 320 PLN for a 2+2 night stay, so I expected at least the toilet to be clean. Instead, there were spiders in the bathroom, dust everywhere, and literally green fungus in the toilet bowl. I understand that checkout needs to be done properly, but this was left by the previous occupants. Most things were fine, but cleanliness was a real problem, and I wouldn’t come back.
