In general, the hotel is not bad. Of course, it doesn’t qualify for 4 stars : ) But we chose it based on the price and proximity to the Liben Castle (we had a wedding ceremony there). They settled us quickly, even despite the fact that we did not have vouchers. But there was a reservation. All the staff at the reception are very responsive and understand Russian perfectly! Even without a voucher, we were handed the keys to the rooms without any problems. A small unpleasant surprise awaited us in the room: the sink was clogged and the light bulb did not work there. We quickly eliminated all this by calling Vanya, who was at the reception. By the way, get ready. This Vanya will sell you excursions : ) We refused, because everything was already booked and scheduled for us : ) We poked around with the safe for a long time and only when the employee was called did he explain that the safe opens and closes with any bank card. Cards from the number do not fit. In general, the room is ok. The truth is not clear something is going on with the beds and blankets. We had two beds. One double bed, second single bed.... ? ? why? We moved them, of course. There were no problems here. But the blankets there are individual, designed for one person. . In the end, we covered ourselves with three blankets : ) Someone wrote here that they were stealing things. And from the safe as well. We left everything in the room and nothing was missing from us. We did not see any gypsy in the cleaners. They work, either ukarinka, or the Czechs themselves. Somehow they left a change (euro cents) on the table (forgotten). Not a penny was lost : ) But, of course, vigilance should not be turned off and always be on the alert : ) Wi-Fi 5 euros per day. ATTENTION! It is better to pay in euros, because you will be recalculated for crowns at the rate of the hotel, and they, you know, are sky-high. Breakfast at the hotel is not good. Do not take coffee under any pretext : ) Unless you should pay attention to hot chocolate a la Nesquik : ) Otherwise, everything was not tasty, except for scrambled eggs with ketchup and some salad snacks. Everything else was either greasy or completely tasteless. We didn't get upset. Futurama Cafe is a five-minute walk towards the subway. They have a little more than 200 CZK, you can have a good breakfast and drink great coffee : ) The hotel is very well located near the metro and tram stop. Tram 3 goes straight to the center, and tickets can be bought right there at the metro station : ) You definitely need to travel by tram. Then you can admire the quarters and local architecture. It is better to change money in Arab exchangers, oddly enough. I am wary of the Arabs, especially after Egypt. But in the Czech Republic, they apparently assimilated and began to conduct honest business. On Panska street there is a network of exchangers with a sign CHANGE 0% commition. Here you go. They have a great course and really no commission. Friendly Arabs will even give you a calculator so that before you give money, you can calculate how many kroons you will have later : ) There is a hypermarket Albert next to the hotel. Open until 21.00. The level resembles Crossroads or Pyaterochka. Those who are not familiar with these Russian supermarkets will say that this level is below average. But we went there to buy water, juices, chocolate and, in general, did not die : ) The water is the same everywhere : ) There were noisy Italians on our arrival, about whom they like to write so much here. They were really noisy. There was a case somehow: a group of 5-7 people sat in front of the hotel and just yelled. Indeed, like gorillas : ) They didn't even say anything, but just yelled : ))) And we heard it being on the 15th floor. We were later told that the Italians' biggest drawback in their upbringing is their complexes : ) Their children are never reprimanded and nothing is forbidden. that's why they grow up like this : ) But in fairness it must be said that apparently the hotel management realized their mistake and now these schoolchildren are accommodated on the first 3 floors. So at night we slept peacefully : ) Also, we went to Vienna for a couple of days. The hotel was booked on booking, and traveled by Student Agency buses. Highly recommend. They depart from the bus station in Florence. Convenient and comfortable yellow buses. We did not even notice how we ended up in Vienna! For a night in a hotel in Vienna, they gave 50 euros for two. For round-trip tickets for two, 1780 kroons. I didn't like Vienna. But who cares. You need to go yourself to understand : ) And Prague, of course, is gorgeous! There are no complaints or complaints here : ) Be sure to visit the beer Novomestsky brewery on Vodichkova, 20. Tram 3 goes there by the pit to the Vodichkova stop. They brew their own beer and serve it to you right there. . We were given a tip for 5 pubs, but this one was the best!! ! : ) The prices there are super, we also had meals there : ) ATTENTION! Be vigilant when ordering food in a restaurant. Their dishes are very large. And you can just physically not eat everything. Therefore, it’s better to order one dish and if you don’t get enough, then it’s better to order something else later than to cram everything that was brought to you and, alas, you have to pay for it : ) In general, who doesn’t like to read long texts I summarize: 1. The hotel staff are quite accommodating and friendly. Somehow, a fool, I lost a card from a number, so we were given a new one without any problems, without fines and any complaints. Everyone speaks Russian. 2. There are no breakfasts, so don't place high hopes on them : )3. The location is very convenient, close to metro and tram stop. 3 tram goes straight to the center. and night tram 52 runs every half an hour. 4. The room is normal, there is a refrigerator, TV, safe and beds with individual blankets : ) Beds can be moved. TV shows two Russian channels. 5. Wi-Fi is paid, 5 euros per day. Pay better than Euro. The crowns will be recalculated at the rate of the hotel and you will pay all 10 euros in the end : )6. At the reception you can iron. True, I do not recommend giving expensive things there, they can ruin it. We were charged 60 crowns for a shirt. Stroked beautifully. The hotel is definitely not fancy. Clean bed, insect-free room and hot water is the most important thing! But for those who came not to sit in the room, but to explore the sights of Prague and only spend the night in a hotel, the option is just perfect! I recommend it to this category of tourists. For other lovers of staying in apartments, I strongly recommend looking for another hotel : )
