Staying in Lavov Most and the Women's Market

The bridge and the market are separate reference points, so check which one your accommodation is actually near. Maria Luiza Boulevard carries through traffic, while the market streets have their own daytime rhythm. For arrival with bags, save the building entrance and a nearby landmark rather than relying only on the property name.
