So Stay Hotel

Decent hotel, however I'm docking two stars because of the city tax (3.31 złoty, less than 1 USD, per day) that must be paid on arrival in złoty, cash only. This caused me an enormous inconvenience since I was there only 1.5 days, and otherwise would not have needed any local cash, as the hotel was prepaid and credit cards are accepted everywhere. 95% of the ATMs in town are Euronet, which is known for its poor exchange rates and high surcharges (21+ złoty/withdrawal). Moreover, the minimum withdrawal is 50 złoty. In the end, I had to go to a money exchange in the old town to exchange 3 USD. To add insult to injury, the hotel didn't have change, so I ended up paying 10 złoty instead of 6.62. In 2025, it's hard to believe they put their international guests through this. Why don't they accept credit cards for the city tax, as other hotels do? The property is located 1 km from the old town, in a reasonably quiet area. However, soundproofing is lacking and walls are quite thin. You definitely hear conversations in the hallway as if they were in your own room. Small, clean room. Amenities included an electric kettle. No mini-fridge or safe. Well located power sockets. Well lit desk area. Comfortable bed, although the linens had some small tears. Bathroom with everything in working order. Good water pressure in the shower. Decent wifi. Price on the expensive side considering that breakfast was not included.

I’m staying here for five nights right now, and i’m mostly satisfied. What I miss is a refridgerator coz it’s +30 degrees outside. The hotel is about 15min walk from the old city of Gdansk. Not very big, and quite cozy. Breakfast (included) is good, and the bed is good and spacious in my standard single room.

Highly recommend
