Straszyn Vacations from $843

Overall experience was okay. Reception staff looked bothered and uninterested. No AC and the sun comes through one of the rooms with thin blinds so it can get quite stuffy. The design of the sink is not good and spills a lot of water out.

This hotel clearly had its prime some time ago and is now due for a refurbishment. It is clean, I’ll give it that. The staff are fantastic, and the food is as good as ever - but while it used to impress a few years ago, it now feels quite outdated. The heating/air conditioning system is old and barely works, making the room stuffy and weird temp. The amenities are well maintained and clean, but the old carpet had a strong smell of cleaning chemicals making stuffiness even worse. We only stayed one night, but for a longer stay we would have definitely asked to move rooms - we both woke up feeling congested, puffed with what seemed like an allergic reaction. For the price, you would expect a higher standard, especially considering how quickly Gdańsk is developing and improving. If Qubus doesn’t invest in updates, it risks falling even further behind the competition.

Our room was upgraded for us, so that was nice. The property has a cool, hip vibe. The location was great. There was a short walk to "Old Town" proper, but it was flat, easy. We had a great stay and would stay here the next time we're in Gdansk.
