Modern 50m2 Flat by Japanese Garden, 3rd Floor Overview

I’ll be honest – when I first saw the name Modern 50m2 Flat by Japanese Garden, 3rd Floor, I wasn’t sure what to expect. The address on Šatrijos gatvė in Snipiskes had me scratching my head too, since this isn’t exactly where most tourists end up. But you know what? That turned out to be exactly why I loved this place.

The apartment sits in this quietly residential part of Vilnius that feels worlds away from the tourist crowds in Old Town, yet you’re actually only about a 15-minute walk to the main action. The Japanese garden reference isn’t just marketing fluff – there’s genuinely this lovely little green space right outside that gives the whole area this unexpectedly zen vibe. I mean, you’re still in Lithuania, but there’s something calming about looking out at those carefully maintained plants and pathways. The 50 square meters might sound compact, but honestly, the layout works really well. The third floor position means you get decent light without street noise, though I should mention there’s no elevator – not a big deal unless you’re hauling massive suitcases.

What really struck me about this place was how it actually feels like a home rather than a sterile hotel room. The kitchen is properly equipped (I made coffee every morning and even attempted some local rye bread toast), and the modern touches throughout don’t feel forced or overdone. The 8.7 rating makes total sense when you experience the attention to detail – things like decent water pressure, reliable WiFi, and blackout curtains that actually block light. The Snipiskes neighborhood itself is fascinating if you’re into seeing how locals actually live. There’s a small grocery store about three blocks away, and I discovered this little café that serves incredible kibinai that definitely isn’t in any guidebook. Parking can be a bit tricky on Šatrijos gatvė during weekdays, but evenings and weekends are fine if you’re driving.

The location really grew on me over a few days. Sure, you won’t stumble out your door onto cobblestone streets lined with medieval churches, but you get this authentic slice of contemporary Vilnius life that most visitors never see. Plus, when you do want to hit up Gediminas Castle or grab dinner in the old quarter, it’s an easy walk or quick bus ride. I’d definitely recommend this spot for travelers who want somewhere genuinely comfortable to decompress after days of sightseeing, especially if you appreciate having a proper living space rather than just a bed and bathroom. Just don’t expect luxury hotel amenities – this is more about smart, clean living with that slightly offbeat charm that makes a trip memorable.

  • Exceptional – Alberto from Spain – July 25, 2025 (10/10)

    It had everything we needed, was great, and the owners were really caring and attentive.

  • Wonderful – Edita_a from Lithuania – June 25, 2025 (9/10)

    The location is really good. Easy to check in and out. The apartment is spacious and tidy.

    What could be improved: The rumbling refrigerator in the living room is annoying in the evenings, but if you close the bedroom door, you can sleep 🙂

  • Modern apartment – good location – Z from United Kingdom – August 24, 2025 (8/10)

    Good modern spacious apartment, clean and well maintained. Strong Wi-Fi. Washing machine.

    Could do with more personal touches not to feel too corporate.

    What could be improved: This is our second visit to the property – a few things not looked after. The kitchen was missing some utensils, salt & pepper shakers were empty, the sugar container was dirty and needed changing. There was iron but no ironing board. Shower head holder was missing. Could not access any channels on TV because no aerial connected and internet channels require subscription.

  • Polecam – Pawro from Poland – July 25, 2025 (10/10)

    Bardzo nowoczesne miejsce, nowe osiedle. Wygodny parking podziemny (miejsce blisko wjazdu). Czysto. Auto warto zostawić i poruszać się po mieście z bolt. Niedaleko duży market.

    What could be improved: Brak wad.

  • Labai geras, naujas, patogus butas – Remigijus from Norway – June 10, 2025 (9/10)

    Labai gerai sutvarkyta, aptverta teritorija

    What could be improved: Ūžia šaldytuvas, naktį trukdo miegot🙂

  • Pobyt w tym mieszkaniu był dla nas stresujący i dlatego wyjechaliśmy przed planowanym terminem. – Dorota from Poland – August 22, 2025 (4/10)

    Mieszkanie jest nowe.

    What could be improved: Brak właściwej komunikacji z właścicielem, co wpłynęło na komfort pobytu. Właściciel nie przekazuje na stronie Booking istotnych informacji dotyczących warunków wynajmu lokalu, o zakazach informuje dopiero po zakwaterowaniu. Daleko od centrum miasta.
