I spent 4 nights in January 2011 in Willa Litarion, and I am really glad I did. I booked this hotel through booking.com one day in advance of my arrival, and I got a very reasonable rate. At this rate and due to the fact this is a small B&B, I expected averrage exprerience there, but I was obviously wrong. First of all location is even more central than I thought, in 2 minutes walk you are in the heart of Main Town. Then,although this is a small B&B, they take attention to detail, eg offering shampoo&liquid soap, hair dryer and small bottle of water in the room. There are enough plagues in the room,so you can charge your netbook,camera and mobile phone at the same time, and thanks god, there is excellent Wi-Fi provided (that's not always the case in this type of accomondation even nowdays!). Room (No 6) was on the small side as expected, but bathroom was spacey, not a hole in the wall as it usually happens in many European hotels. Shower comes with a curtain (long enough not to float the place! )
Breakfast area stays open all day so you can make a cup or coffee or tea, and this is quite a treat in Poland! Concidering the rate I paid, breakfast was very generous, a buffet offering many types of bread, jams, boiled eggs and sausages, cheese and cold meat, many types of cereals, red pepper, pickles, red sauce and mayonnaise, different type of yogurts, cake, orange and orange juice, and other stuff I surely now forget.
What was the greatest asset of this hotel though was the staff itsself. They were always very kind, asking me how was my day, if I am happy with my room etc. A gentleman usually working on morning shift didn't speak lots of English, but we always managed to communicate and actually making small "conversation" using my poor Polish and sign language.
On one day of my stay, cleaning lady had an emergency and my room wasn't made (not a big deal really), and the lady in the desk was very apologetic, offering even a room change. The way they handled the issue was very nice, and I am very respectful for that!
Upon my departure, I got a small bottle of Zubrowska Vodka as a gift/souvenir, a very nice touch!
I will definately stay here again whenever I visit Gdansk in the future!
