Monument protection covers more than the church building alone: the church is protected together with its surroundings and complete interior furnishings.

It gives you a specific reference point if you are considering cycling as part of your trip.

How do you choose a hotel as you plan your trip?
Start with your own priorities: Do you mainly want to explore the protected historic building, are you interested in Pomorzanin as a natural monument, or is the cycling route your main focus? This distinction can help you clarify the purpose of your trip before comparing hotel offers.
When searching, you can then check the details of the hotels actually on offer and tailor your choice to your plans. The features of the town can help guide your decision; they do not replace checking the specific accommodation details.
