Apartment nr.3

First Impressions

Walking up to Apartment nr.3 on Boulevard Cuza Voda, you’d honestly never guess from the street that you’re about to step into one of Chișinău’s most highly-rated stays. The building itself is pretty typical for this part of the city — solid, unpretentious — but once you’re inside apartment 3, it’s a completely different story. The space feels surprisingly spacious and thoughtfully put together, which I mean, isn’t always a given with apartment-style accommodations. What really struck me was how clean and well-maintained everything looked, especially considering the fantastic value you’re getting here.

Location & Neighborhood

You know what’s great about this spot? You’re right in the heart of Chișinău without dealing with the chaos that sometimes comes with central locations. Boulevard Cuza Voda puts you within walking distance of pretty much everything that matters — the main shopping areas, restaurants, and cultural sites are all easily reachable on foot. I noticed couples seem to particularly love this area (they consistently rate the location around 8.8), and honestly, I can see why. There’s something romantic about strolling these tree-lined streets in the evening, plus you’ve got plenty of cozy cafes and wine bars nearby — this is Moldova, after all.

The Apartment

The three-star rating might make you think basic, but Apartment nr.3 actually delivers way more than you’d expect. The layout is smart and functional, with enough space that you don’t feel like you’re living out of a suitcase. The kitchen area is particularly well-equipped if you want to grab some local ingredients from the nearby markets and cook something up. What I really appreciated was the attention to detail — proper lighting, comfortable seating, and everything you need for a longer stay. It’s not upscale by any means, but it’s genuinely comfortable and feels like a proper home base.

Practical Perks

Here’s something that’ll save you both money and headaches — there’s free parking available right on site. Trust me, if you’ve ever tried to find parking in central Chișinău, you’ll know this is actually a pretty big deal. The whole area can get congested during the day, so having a guaranteed spot takes away that stress completely. Plus, recent guests have been rating the location consistently high (around 8.9), which tells you something about how well-positioned this place really is for exploring the city.

Why Guests Love It

Look, Apartment nr.3 isn’t trying to be something it’s not — and that’s exactly why it works so well. You get a genuine local experience in a great location without paying hotel prices or dealing with hotel restrictions. The combination of that prime Boulevard Cuza Voda address, the free parking, and the consistently high ratings (we’re talking a 9 overall) makes this place sort of a no-brainer if you want to experience Chișinău like someone who actually lives here. It’s the kind of place where you can settle in properly, explore at your own pace, and still have easy access to everything the city has to offer.
