“Friendly hosts despite the language barrier; early check-in and luggage storage were appreciated. The room was clean and sunny with a balcony, and there were several fully equipped kitchens. Location near the market and main street was ideal, with breathtaking views of the High Tatras. Comfortable bed and ensuite bathroom, and the hosts gave helpful advice about the mountain cable car. Close to Krupowki Street and well stocked with amenities. No pets or smoking on site. Free wi-fi, parking, flat-screen TV, ski storage, and skiing available. Mind-blowing experience.”
