Traditional wooden villas on the outskirts of Zakopane are often cheaper, but keep in mind you'll spend extra on local minibuses to get to Krupówki Street and the mountain trailheads. If you're on a budget, check whether you're booking a simple room without meals or a cozy mini-hotel with daily housekeeping. Always look at how close the property is to bus stops and what essentials are included.
