Really good affordable option in a fascinating and quirky neighbourhood steeped in history. Location is perfect, everything we wanted was within walking distance and the building itself must contain a fascinating tapestry of history. To be slightly pernickety it would have been good to have some toiletries and bottled water/ snack options in the appartment to arrive to, even if it meant paying slighlty more for the room. Coming off a budget flight at midnight with minimal baggage this would have been appreciated. Overall though, excellent.

First note on this place is that they are located in a Great area in the Jewish quarters. The area is vibrant, loaded with restaurants and pubs, and is is a short distance from Old Town. Unfortunately the apartment did not live up to expectations. The booking on Expedia shows that there is air conditioning in the apartment. There was not any air conditioning on the hottest days in Poland. Well above the 90 degrees. When we asked about it the front desk apologized and said our apartment was the only one with AC. He stated the websites show that when booking. I double checked and it shows comfort includes AC. The beds are quite firm. Not really the most comfortable to sleep on. But they did fulfill having a place to sleep. The shower head just needs to be replaced. The water comes out anyway it wants. Good news is there is a good working washing machine in the bathroom. There is a set of rods in the bath room to hang laundry. In all if you are looking for a cheap place to sleep and be able to save money by cooking on your own then this place works. You can sleep 6 people in the two rooms.

Good stay
Apartment was very clean, well supplied with kitchen equipment. Air con cooled the whole apartment greatly despite only being in the hall-way. Check-in was easy at 2am! via the apartment's good communication. Dual aspect main bedroom. Couple of niggles by way of wifi kept disconnecting and sound of the bins in the street being emptied each early morning. Apartment is in a great historic nieghbourhood with lots to do.

Just like two days ago check in was quick and easy. The young girl at reception was ver nice just like Bozena the other night. Another gentleman who was working ask if I needed help with my bags and offered helpful advice. The apartment is exceptional. Had everything I could possibly need or even want. I will be back again. May even stay tomorrow if they have an available apartment. Great place to stay when in Kraków 🇵🇱.

AMAZING! Love this place! It's in the Jewish Quarter where all the cool cafes are and it's a close walk to the river!! They room was spacious and bed was comfortable! My son and I loved the area, the reception was kind and helpful! We would absolutely stay here again! It's about a 10 min walk to Old Town but this is the neighborhood to stay in!! SO GOOD!

Staff were friendly and very helpful. Our 2 bedroom apartment was clean and spacious, perfect for our short stay in Krakow. Supermarkets were within a short 5 min walk away and lots of bars and restaurants to choose from. It was fairly lively in the evening but the noise didn't bother us at all. When it was time for bed we simply shut the windows which blocked almost all the noise from the surrounding restaurants etc. Would definitely stay here again!

We arrived after 4 pm and so we tried to call the number on the plaque next to the door. Turned out we dialed it wrong. Fortunately, the staff at Fabryka Pizzy helped us out, and we got in. It is NOT a hotel. It is an apartment, and we stayed there for two weeks while we toured around Kraków and southern Poland. You will need to make your own eating arrangements for each day. I bought more food than I needed for my family and we had a lot left over, so be sure to plan your meals well ahead. There are many good places to eat in Kazimierz, and throughout Kraków. For Grocery shopping there are some smaller corner markets in the area. For more major grocery shopping, there are a couple of shopping malls that have bigger grocery stores, such as Auchan and Carrefour. The beds were comfortable. The bathroom was fine, and includes a washing machine that we took advantage of. Since we arrived in late July, we used the fans that we're provided. The kitchen is well-stocked with dishes, utensils, pots, pans, and just about everything one should need for cooking. We brought our own blender from home for my wife to make smoothies, so perhaps that may be something that the Apartments could invest in for each room. The gas stove requires a match or lighter to ignite, and is not self igniting. The apartment manager was very helpful when it came to understanding parking, helping arrange a tour, and ordering a taxi to take my family to the airport.

Great Apartments
The Apartments are very dated in decor but look past that and you have a very spacious place to live for however long you visit. The kitchen is fully equipped and you have all the amenities you need including fresh towels which they don’t advertise in what’s included in your room. The location is 18 mins away from main square which is good and Taxi’s are cheap if you can’t be bothered to walk.

Great place - but beware early morning noise!
Immaculately clean & well equipped for self-catering stay; great area to be in - lots of restaurants, pubs, places of interest. But woken every morning by very loud bottle & refuse-collecting lorry outside. Clearly not the fault of the owners, but early morning noise a real problem!

What a great place and perfect location.
Our room was on the 3rd floor and had the terrace outside perfect for our smoker. The apartment was very clean and perfect for our stay. If you struggle with stairs the top apartment isn't for you. The apartment has everything you need, towels, hair dryer, a nice compact kitchen if you wanted to make coffee tea etc. the staff were very helpful and arrange taxis to pick us up and take us back to the airport. They even helped to organise Auschwitz Tours if needed.

Great option for young family
The apartment worked perfectly for us, a family with two kids, 6 and 4, staying for a week. It was quite small but very well equipped and clean, and the staff were very helpful. The rooms were bright and looked out over the picturesque street. It's a big nightlife area but the double glazing took care of the noise. The best thing about it is the location, right in the middle of Kazimierz and surrounded by historical sights and dozens of great, child-friendly bars and restaurants. Most have big gardens for the kids to roam around. Also very close to the river and 10 minutes walk to the castle and old town.

Perfect option in Jewish Quarter
The apartment gave me plenty of space and a very comfortable stay. I wish I could have stayed more than 3 days. Fantastic food nearby and very special feeling being in the Jewish Quarter, an area with a special and moving history. Only a few blocks from Schindler's factory, which has been turned into a modern museum with Jewish history. I'd definitely stay here again.
