The beginning of September in
Krakow proved to be a truly special time. Weather wise with the unceasing blue
sky and lovely sunshine every day from early morning hours and the temperature
between 24 and 27 C degrees, we could not fault it.

Destination wise – well, we knew
Krakow already from our previous visits – so we knew it would not disappoint
and it was such a pleasure to see the city getting more and more beautiful with
the restoration work going on in the Old Town, the new Underground Museum below
the Sukiennice and the refreshing fountain in the Main Market Square.
Finally accommodation wise – spot
on!
It was the first time that we had
booked a holiday apartment from the ‘ApartmentsApart’ website and it certainly won’t
be the last.
Our Vanilla apartment located in
the very heart of the Old Town, on the Royal Route proved an ideal little place
for staying in Krakow. It ticked all the boxes, a great setting off point
being only a nice fifteen minutes stroll away from the Railway Station. Situated
on the first floor with several other tasty named apartments (Cinnamon, Ginger
etc) just off the Grodzka Street, it was equally close to the busy Rynek Main Square
with all its attractions on one side and on the other it was a short walk to to
the stunning Wawel Castle and Wisla river with all its pleasure craft.

Huge fridge/freezer, washing machine, iron and
board for the style slaves (we weren't) – everything was there.

Within three minutes walk was the ‘ApartmentsApart’
office with courteous staff speaking fluent English and willingly going an extra mile (or
should we rather say a kilometre) to help at ANY time.
The combination of Krakow &
ApartmentsApart was a brilliant experience.
We will be back!
