I highly recommend this apartment for other travelers. I read previous reviews about noise, but we couldn’t hear anything outside the apartment, so any previous soundproofing issues have been addressed. We loved being right in the old town square.

The room was very clean and was within walking distance to most everything. The kitchenette was perfect for our breakfasts and other snacks. It was also very quiet. Excellent staff and place to stay, and would stay again. If you can’t do stairs then this is not your place, but we saw it as an opportunity to work off our culinary delights.

Location, location, location! This property is literally steps from the main square in Krakow. It is on a busy and popular street full of shops and restaurants so you have all you can need within steps and you are walking distance to the main Old Town sites.
The apartment was lovely and clean and had a/c but the weather was so lovely that we opened the windows for fresh air. It is more like and Airbnb concept where you do not get daily housekeeping so keep that in mind but in exchange you get a small kitchenette with stove and fridge, coffee maker and tea kettle. The one deterrent was the 3 story walk up. There is no lift/elevator in the building. While we only had to climb this once or twice per day, it was challenging but not terrible. It would not deter me from staying here again especially with the convenience of the location.

Pros: Very convenient location. Surprisingly quiet. Good A/C. Hot water on demand. Plenty of amenities and great for 3 solo travelers. Allowed us to store luggage before check-in.

Cons: Could use wash cloths in the bathroom and a few hooks in the shower. The stairs are difficult if you have large or heavy luggage - or in my case, are 6 months pregnant. Could use better blackout shades for the 5am sunrise.

Overall, I would recommend for the price range to younger people with good mobility. This is not for older folks or anyone w/ limited mobility due to the number of stairs to get to the 3rd floor.

If you want to hide from the energy of this beautiful city, avoid convenient shopping & be asleep by 8 pm - stay home.
Appartment very well equiped- we booked apartment F . It is perfect for us. Hosts very attentive - self check in was a breeze. Key box perfect for multiple family coming & going. Highly reccomended. But note :
This building does not have elevator -

This small apartment was clean and close to the main square. There were 3 twin beds which is hard to find. Everything was provided and the hosts checked in to see if we needed anything else. Great location, great hosts - i would recommend staying here to anyone wanting to be close to the main square! Just note that the walls are thin in this older building so expect some hall noise. There is also a delicious donut place just beside the entrance which we made good use of!

The property is excellently located on the Square and was easy to locate and get into. The instructions on how to gain entry arrived 24 hours prior to our visit and everything went smoothly.

The property is in a great location and up 2 flights of stairs which we were fine with, but anybody elderly could find difficult.

The apartment was spotlessly clean and everything you could want was available. You may need ear plugs; we were in apartment 2 and it was quite noisy with people walking home in the early hours and shouting/singing but luckily, we had earplugs and if we didn't there were some provided by the apartment.

All in all, we had a great time, and I would highly recommend the Scharffenberg Apartment and will definitely visit again. Thank you.

Almost perfect

This apartment was in a great location in Krakow! It was a bit loud at night since we were right next to the Square. My only complaint is that the curtains let a lot of light in at night. They do not cover around the whole window. Sleeping in the bed you stare right at the street light. AND know this apartment is up the stairs, no elevators.

The location of this property is amazing. You can walk everywhere and not worry about transportation. That said, the apartment is in an old building and there is no elevator. The stairs were difficult for our elderly mom and carrying our suitcases up was a challenge. Entering the building can also be challenging if you forget the entry code (there is a donut store right next door to make it better :) Overall, we enjoyed our stay at the apartment.

The location was fantastic for access to Rynek Glowny (the main market square) and the night life that comes with that! It was a cute and comfortable apartment - we loved our stay and want to go back to Krakow! If you drive there, parking is tricky so be prepared to find a location and do some walking. We found a 24-hour lot that was 20 euro per night, which seemed reasonable.

Other than hauling our bags up 3 flights of stairs (which we were fully aware of when we booked) this place was fantastic. Super clean, bright and had everything we needed. Some nights it ia quite loud outside and the windows don't keep noise out, but they do provide ear plugs even, I imagine for that reason.

Such an incredible place to stay. The amenities were wonderful, with a huge amount of space and great kitchenette.

It was stunning how busy the street below is during busy periods and how you cannot hear a thing in this apartment. We spent hours sitting and watching the horses walking past outside on the windowsill.

The location is great, and the staff were great. We also strongly recommend the Karamello chocolatier at the bottom of the street, the hot chocolates are to die for! We will be back!!!

This is a unique property in what was originally a 14th-15th C. building. Jon(?) & Carolina, the part-time property caretakers (no one is there full time; they are always reachable by phone/text) were unusually kind and friendly, and were consistently helpful whenever we (or others) had any questions or concerns. Full marks for helpfulness.

Location is great; just off the Krakow Main Squre, in the heart of the Old Town. All the top spots other than Schindler's Factory were in very easy walking distance.

Lovely big apartment, on the third floor of an old house with great wooden stairs, but no elevator.

This property is lovely and in an AMAZING location leading off the main Market Square. It’s kitted out with coffee machine and you can buy the bullets from the office, if anyone is ever thereto respond. The only, and I mean only, downside is that due to the central location it can be really noisy from revellers or deliveries/bins emptying. However, ear plugs are provided and were used!!

Ideal location, literally a few steps from the main square. It was a large room with all the usually amenities, including a mobile phone which you can take with you as a tour guide during your stay. Next door is a cafe that does a great buffet breakfast for 25 ZL. If you have a room at the front there is the occasional noise from late night clubers, but I used the ear plugs provided and slept soundly.

The location is wonderful, at the main square in Krakow at the start of the street that goes to Wawel Cathedral and Castle. There was some late night early morning street noise, and the property supplied ear plugs for light sleepers, which we are not. Restaurants were everywhere, and there is a good breakfast spot next door to the property entry.
Maciej Fijak was very helpful when we had questions or requests. If we ever return to this beautiful city, we will certainly want to stay at this property.

Perfect location just a minute walk to the main square. Very quiet as our apartment faced away from the street area. Nice spacious bathroom. Had microwave, hob, coffee maker fridge and kettle although we ate out and about.

great find, great location and helpful staff!

Amazing location and despite the noisy location it was pretty quiet inside the room, they also provided ear plugs in case. Justyna was a great host and helped with numerous questions i had. Would definitely recommend.

Ideal location for quality time in Krakow center

It all started with a reservation made by us on a Sunday. Within minutes we received a reply by Kasia, the manager, and within very little time the airport transfer and 2 excursions (Auschwitz/ Birkenau and Salt Mines - both are a MUST-DO iin our view) were arranged.
And the Scharffenberg is a great place located on the corner of the market square - all one could wish for close by! However our room was still quiet enough to get a decent sleep.
Rooms are well kept and contain all that one needs for a pleasant and comfortable stay.
And the staff (in our case Maciej) was very helpful.

We will likely not visit again any time soon, but if we do, the Scharffenberg will be our number 1 choice!!!

Wonderful apartment in central Krakow

This is a lovely apartment in a brilliant central position. It was very well equipped and super clean. Beds were comfortable and the whole place was cosy and homely. Our host was very friendly and helped me with my case up the stairs (there is no lift). I would stay here again and would definitely recommend it.

From the moment we booked Maciej was in contact, offering trip advise, travel to and from the airport and room configuration. We also received and photo’s of the room we would be staying in.
Maciej arranged transport from the airport and arranged trips for us which made the holiday preparations less stressful.
The apartment was everything the pictures had suggested, extremely clean, very spacious with air conditioning and fully functioning kitchen. The beds were exceptionally comfortable.
Maciej was there to welcome us and ensured we had a comfortable and enjoyable stay.
Breakfast was available next door from 7:30 with no need to book, good value.
If I was to visit Poland again I would definitely re-book

Walk out the apartment door, turn slightly left, without walking, you are already at the Krakow's marvelous 13 century historical old town square.
Frankly I did not expect such a good location for the price that I have paid for this apartment.
This apartment is in a old building, newly renovated. It has extra large room and washroom with very high ceiling. The decoration is very stylish and tasteful. It has open kitchen with all the pots, plates and utensils that you need. I have to compliment about the in room coffee maker. It makes the best coffee I have ever tasted from a home coffee maker. Try it out and let me know:-) Also, all the tea, coffee, water soap and shampoo the apartment provided are all good quality products.
This apartment is very well managed by the caring manager Maciej. Ever since I book the apartment, Maciej started to communicate with me about the check in process and special arrangement about the bedding arrangement. During our stay, Maciej was very helpful helping us book tours. I found a tiny leak from the shower stall and reported to Maciej. He knelt down on the floor and trying to solved the leak. He told me they disassemble the shower drain every time after customer check out to thoroughly clean up the hair in the drain. The leak was because the housekeeper did not tighten the drain assembly tight enough..
The only potential problem for some travelers could be the stairs. This apartment does not have any elevator. It did not bother us at all.

Great location

Prior to our arrival we were in communication regarding parking which was very helpful. We were given maps to help locate the parking lot and then to the apartment. On arrival we was greeted by Ulla, she was very friendly and offered her assistance if we needed any information and gave us a contact number to use at any time of the day. The apartments are located on the corner of the main square which was very useful. Only draw back is that it can be a little noisy being so close to the square but they offer ear plugs in case you are a light sleeper. There is also no lift to the apartment which is 2 flights up. The bed was comfortable and the apartment was very clean and well maintained.
