Old Town Apartment – Old Market

Hotel Description

You know what? I wasn’t expecting much from another “Old Town apartment” listing, but this place in the Old Market area genuinely surprised me. Walking up to it, you get that immediate sense that someone actually thought about what travelers need – not just what looks good in photos. The building has this lived-in character that feels authentic without being run-down, if that makes sense.

The location is honestly perfect if you want to be in the thick of things without the tourist trap feeling. I mean, you’re literally steps from all the Old Market action, but tucked away enough that you’re not dealing with street noise until 2 AM. What I really appreciated was how easy it was to grab coffee in the morning – there’s this little local spot around the corner that the front desk guy mentioned, and honestly, their pastries were better than anything I found in the main square. The apartment itself has that rare quality of feeling spacious even when it’s not huge. Natural light floods in through these great windows, and whoever furnished it actually considered that people need places to put their stuff (revolutionary concept, I know). The kitchen is small but functional – I made breakfast a couple times and didn’t feel like I was performing surgery in a closet.

Here’s what sold me on the place, though: it’s got that 9.5 rating for good reason. The details matter here. Check-in was smooth, the Wi-Fi actually works everywhere (tested it obsessively), and the shower has proper water pressure. I’ve stayed in fancier places that couldn’t nail those basics. Plus, parking is way easier than most Old Town spots – there’s street parking that locals know about, and the host gives you the real scoop on where to find it. The whole area comes alive at different times of day too, which kept it interesting. Early morning, you’ve got locals heading to work, market vendors setting up. Evening brings this great energy with people out for dinner and drinks, but it settles down to a comfortable hum by about 10 PM. I actually found myself just sitting by the window with coffee, watching the rhythm of the neighborhood – not something I usually do, but there was something engaging about the street life here that didn’t feel performative or touristy. If you’re the type who likes to feel like you’re staying somewhere with personality rather than just sleeping in a generic box, this hits that sweet spot perfectly.
