Reviews for Astra Apartments
Review 1:Nice clean room with kitchen facility, nice bathroom, parking place in the yard and also on the street in front of the building. They have a billiard table in the basement that can be converted to a ping pong table. Waking distance to the city center (25-30 min) and to the Auschwitz museum (15-20 min).
Review 2:It's impossible something could be wrong in that House)
Review 3:Because of snowfalls on Czech roads we arrived later than official recieption closure time (11pm) but gave a call to the owner. So we were appreciated that they were waiting for us at 1 am, made us advices for tomorrow activities and that was not all. Next day early in the morning I went to Auschwitz museum other 5 people had stayed in Astra and asked for late departure. Our appts were booked for that day however the owner Familie welcomed them to the game room (pool and ping-pong) and provided them with the tea etc. Generally we were amazed by real Polish hospitality as it should be. And of course I have to mention excellent conditions to stay: from the front door and super location just a minute walk from railway/bus staion to halls, rooms amenities, kitchen, game room, smoking place in the inside yard... Sure in the summer it would be seemed even better than now.
Review 4:The family operating the apartments were incredibly friendly and so enthusiastic. The property is clean and modern, and its located only 5-10 minutes from Auschwitz concentration camp (or about a 20 minute walk). Parking is free too. We stayed in many places during a 2 week tour of Europe, and these apartments were the greatest value for our money.
Review 5:Everything was good.
Review 6:Wonderful hotel close to the city center and central railway station. Nice and helpful staff. My stay was very comfortable and I recommend this hotel.
Review 7:The owners are really nice people so you don't mind their English is pretty basic (their German sounded a bit more advanced). There was also a kitchenette in our room and room was very clean and tidy, the whole place was. There is a pool table in the basement for customers to use. We only stayed one night and left early but owners let us keep the suitcases in and pick them up in the late afternoon (we checked out of the room thought). The apartments are literally 3 minutes walk from train station and about 15 - 20 minutes walk from old town or The Auschwitz museum, we got the map of town at Astra apartments on arrival. Little grocery shop is right on the way from train station and shopping center is in walking distance too. Highly recommended!
Review 8:The staff were very friendly and helpful although they only knew a little English they were very welcoming and keen to make you comfortable. It was very clean, close to the centre, had car parking and was very cosy
Review 9:Nice new clean apartments with everything you need. Staff are really friendly and helpful, they even gave us a lift to Auschwitz. Would definitely stay here again. Amazing value for money.
Review 10:Nice, clean and fairly spacious rooms close to the museums. Most helpful host and hostess, good recommendations and hints where to dine and how to see the sites. A superb bed to my taste. High-speed wi-fi.
Review 11:The only slight downside was some early morning traffic noise as we stayed in the apartment opening to the street.
Review 12:It's a family run motel with fully equipped studio apartments, furnished in a great style, and in a very good location. Our hosts were extremely friendly and helpful, the so-to-say icing on the cake was a piece of landlady's chocolate cake offered to us when we returned to our studio in the evening. Excellent service and wonderful people!
Review 13:These apartments are of a high standard new in an infamous town. We stayed her as part of our visit to both Auschwitz camps. Rather than the rushed bus trip this is the ideal place to stay and really look at both camps as individuals and not part of a rushed tour group. To walk the length of the ramp at Auschwitz- Birkenau and between the wire fences towards the gas chambers is a moving experience.
Review 14:could have a fridge in each room instead of sharing only 1 in kitchen area
Review 15:everything was great -- staff -- room -- shower -- quiet -- yard -- close to train -- loved it
Review 16:absolutely nothing
Review 17:The owners of the property were wonderful with a welcoming feel. Their son is a good translator of English language. They made us feel so welcome, excellent clean updated place with AC. Private on-site parking. Will return definitely & recommend to all.
Review 18:Nothing
Review 19:This small, quiet hotel is a gem. The owners, Wieslaw and Krystyna, along with their son, are some of the nicest people you will ever meet. We felt like most welcome guests staying in a friend's home. This was our favorite stay during our European trip. Very close to train station and within walking distance of Auschwitz museum.
Review 20:Amazing owners, so nice and willing to do whatever they can. Everything very clean and nice, extremely good bed, cute sitting in the garden... We felt sorry we were staying just one night...
Review 21:Nothing!
Review 22:Very friendly. Very good condition room. Good facilities inc. Free Private Undercover Parking (May not always be available). Lovely small garden etc etc. Perfect for trip to Auschwitz 1 & 2 with 15-20 minute nice walk. Hosts were Very polite and friendly. 100% recommend!
Review 23:Good beds, very good airco,parking for car, perfect owners.The owners are helping their guests everywhere they can if possible.for exapmle the owner brought us to the auswitch museum for free. The rooms and sanitair are very good and clean. We loved staying here!! Keep up the good work!
Review 24:I hate that we didn't stay for one more night!
Review 25:The owners were great, extremely friendly, willing to help and show the property around! We were pleasantly surprised to find out that what othe people mentioned about Astra apartments was true! If you visit Aushwitz and you do not stay at Astra Apartments, you must be missing a part of your brain!
Review 26:The host went out of his way to make our stay as pleasant as possible. Very friendly, and nothing is to much to ask. It was my first visit to Poland, and it was a wonderful surprise. Modern, clean apartments and very good value for money.
Review 27:You can't order breakfast here.
Review 28:Very friendly owners who really wanted to make us feel welcome. Location only opened for 3 months (they told), so brandnew rooms which are very clean and modern with a nice and clean bathroom. Location is really close to the train station and only 15 minute walk from Auschwitz. Some nice facilities like a gym and pool tabl. You get a good product for the price, so absolutely reommendable.
Review 29:Although there is a kitchen where you could cook your breakfast and bake some coffee, there is no buffet or whatsoever. But there's a bakery right across the street.
Review 30:The couple who owns the place are charming. If you've visited what you came for and still have time ahead, ask the owner to show you the pool room and the gym downstairs.
Review 31:Nothing bad to review!
Review 32:Great modern accommodation! Very clean. Free to use kitchen, garden and games room as you please. Very convenient for the train station and well positioned for a visit to the Auschwitz concentration camps.
Review 33:Nothing to dislike.
Review 34:Warm very friendly helpful family owners.I liked them straight away. Spotlessly clean warm comfortable room. Tv,wifi,pooltable/games,weight room,laundry facilities. Free secure parking on proprty. Access to a very nice peaceful backyard property. Full kitchen facilities. Walking distance to Aushwitz museum. Shopping plaza nearby. English communication was a minor thing and we had fun understanding each other with some help from their son who speaks perfect English. Easy place to find a few meters off main road.
Review 35:The staff was Great, really helpful and serviceminded! Nice and clean room,only 3 minuts walk from trainstation and 15 minutes walk to the auschwitz museum! I strongly recommend this place!
Review 36:Though we arrived very early at about 8am, we were able to check in though the check in time is supposed to be around 11am I think. There was no extra charge and we were upgraded to the deluxe room because the room we booked was in use by the previous occupants. The apartment owner's father did not mind giving us the deluxe room and showed us all the facilities that we could use. If we weren't tired after a visit to Auschwitz and Birkenau, we would have used the pool table! The owner's father was such a warm man. He couldn't speak English very well but still tried his best to communicate to us and make us feel comfortable! 5 stars to Astra Apartment! :)
Review 37:Extremely friendly owners, who went out of their way to ensure our stay was perfect, as did the young man they had to help with translation during check-in. The rooms are modern, warm and spotless with a beautiful garden for guests to use. The shared kitchen is well equipped to prepare meals and there are shops close by for provisions. Located across the road from the railway station, perfect for independent travellers wishing to visit Auschwitz, which is within walking distance too. We could not fault this accommodation.
Review 38:This is not a B & B. It is not possible to order a meal / breakfast - you need to take care of your own catering. It is close to the bakery and shops.
Review 39:Very clean, quiet, intimate atmosphere, pool and small gym, garden available, high standard of rooms , very close to the station, not far from the town center . But the most important was a good atmosphere which was created by the owners.
Review 40:Everything was amazing, nothing that I didn't like.
Review 41:My sister and I were travelling throughout Europe and this was by farthe best place we stayed! The location was right near the train station.The owners were superb! They allowed us to check in at 8:30am despitethe 2:00pm scheduled check in time. They went out of their way to ensurethat we had a pleasant stay. Would highly recommend staying here!
