Scinawa Vacations from $836

The location was fabulous - right at the old town square. You can’t beat it so overlooked some of the other issues. The apartment was fine, but had a bit more wear than in the photos. The internet and TV didn’t work the entire stay, which was inconvenient as I had to go to a nearby restaurant to access internet. Communication with host was poor - no response to email, disconnected a couple times by phone, someone finally came up the last day regarding the internet who spoke no English and limited polish who insisted the internet worked, upon realizing it didn’t, said they would get tech support, which never showed up.

Nice room, good breakfast, polite staff and only a short walk to city centre.

This facility is good in several respects: It is relatively new, therefore clean and modern. One aspect I liked was the 24/7 staffing by young girls who, when asked, provided knowledgeable help on, for example, where to find the breaker box (I popped one by accident). Four things I didn't like: 1) Not enough parking - this is a common Euro problem, but it seems to me a new facility could easily have built-in underground parking, but no, there are only about 12 regular spaces and another 5-6 overflow out front (robbing parking from the attached beauty saloon - they must be thrilled). As the place has 33 rooms, this is clearly not enough (in May) - what's it like during the high season? 2) No laundry service. When I asked where the laundry was, I was informed there isn't one and I have the right to "go to any public laundromat in the city". Gee, thanks. Would it kill them to partner with a laundry service to collect/deliver for their guests? 3) PILLOWS Positively the WORST "pillows" I have tried to sleep on in the last 10 years - any that's saying something. Their garbage is of the balloon variety, forcing me to sleep with a bent neck all night and the resultant pain all the next day. On that very next day, I was forced to go to Zara downtown and pay 50 bucks for a real pillow that felt like I had died and gone to heaven the next night and for the rest of my stay. 4) This is a personal beef about all these "apart-hotels"; No Toaster - I want toast in the morning.

The apartments are a 10 minute taxi/tram journey to the centre of Wroclaw. A thirty minute walk. This is student accommodation so it’s a bight tight. The bed was comfortable, there was a nice breeze in the 5th floor room. The shower was excellent. The staff were helpful. It was a comfortable stay.

The hotel is very interesting and comfortable. The ambiance of staying in a former monastery was wonderful. Staff were very helpful, our room was spotless and the food was good. Breakfast wasn’t as good as we expected, but there was plenty of options. I recommend this hotel.
