Very good value for money, and the location is ideal for tourists, right in the city centre. Most of the main attractions are within walking distance, making it easy to explore the city without needing public transport. Overall, it’s a very good choice for anyone looking for affordable accommodation in a convenient location. I would definitely recommend it!

Location was great! Room was nice and clean. Bathroom was clean as well.

Nothing!

It’s very central, it was well laid out and the bathrooms were quite nice, definitely worked for a larger group, bedrooms were comfortable, privacy curtains on lower bunks and the lockers were very spacious. They cleaned it regularly and there were lots of crockery and pots/pans etc.

We had lots of noise from the trams so if you’re a light sleeper it’s quite difficult to sleep. The curtains weren’t great for blocking out light and there were some appliances not working (hob, dishwasher, oven and the fridge did not close properly). Some AC could be needed or fans in extreme heat.

The receptionists are incredibly helpful and welcoming. A special mention goes to the young Ukrainian lady who wears glasses—she cleans the apartment very thoroughly, unlike the other staff member. The location is excellent, just a short walk from the Lazarská tram stop. I also really appreciate the lockable lockers, free luggage storage, and the shared kitchen where guests can cook their own meals. The huge fridge is another great bonus! Overall, these amenities and the convenient location make the stay good.

Unfortunately, there are a few downsides to the accommodation. The beds squeak, and the mattresses aren't very comfortable, although the bedding is clean and the pillows and blankets don't have any unpleasant smell. The floors also creak, which can be disturbing. The dorm seems to attract some rather unusual guests, which may affect the overall atmosphere. Another issue is the front door, which doesn't close properly unless you slam it, creating a lot of noise at night and potentially disturbing other guests. There is also no lift, so carrying luggage upstairs can be exhausting, especially for guests with heavy bags or mobility difficulties. Overall, the accommodation has several excellent features, particularly the helpful reception staff, cleanliness of the bedding, convenient location, and useful shared facilities, but improving the beds, soundproofing, door mechanism, and accessibility would make the experience much better.
