Schlimm! Organisation und Ausstattung wirklich grenzwertig. Würde dort nicht nochmal hingehen

Zufriedenstellendes Hostel mitten in der Innenstadt von Prag. Gut ausgestattete Küche, freundliches Personal. Jedoch ist das gesamte Hostel renovierungsbedürftig. Bei der einen Toilette schließt die Tür nicht ganz, bei der anderen war das Licht kaputt. Das gesamte Hostel ist sehr hellhörig, was bedeutet, dass man auch nachts keine wirkliche Ruhe hatte, da das Fenster zum Zimmer direkt an einer großen Tramkreuzung liegt. Großes Potenzial, momentan aber noch verbesserungswürdig

The location is what you are paying for, not the experience. It smelled like cigarette smoke at the reception in the morning so that was forced upon us and nobody wishes for this. The bed was broken and there was sharp screws under the mattress in the corner. The mattress was extremely hard and that was unpleasant in the morning. The dresser had a the screws from the hinge come right out of the cheap wood so the door never hung straight or shut perfectly. Cold, no facilities after 5pm, boring.

Nos hospedaron en el sótano literalmente, ya que lo adaptaron como dormitorio pero creo que no es lo ideal ya que apesta horrible, en verdad es insoportable el olor, no lo exagero pero si es muy desagradable, considero que es muy caro respecto a lo que ofrece, ya que el hostal es feo, no tiene áreas comunes, no hay buena limpieza , no hay supervisión, en resumen no tuvimos mala experiencia, pero lo apestoso fue mi mayor problema, no se puede descansar por lo mismo pero NO lo recomiendo nada!

Está bien en cuanto a ubicación y alojamiento, pero se escucha mucho el tranvía por la noche :/

the design is awful and everything looks very dirty, nothing like the pictures. beds are fine (although quite noisy) and it’s cheap, so for one night it’s acceptable. the vibe is terrible and the people I encountered were very unfriendly. main issue was the water: the shower alternates between burning hot and freezing every 20 seconds, making it very unpleasant. the sink also smells like rotten eggs. the kitchen is oddly equipped: plenty of pots, but not a single knife that actually cuts

The unsanitary smell of mold ruins the whole experience. The mold level is beyond acceptable and terrible for health; I went straight to the hospital. I tried to spend as little time as possible in the hostel, but unfortunately I had already paid for all the days and had to sleep somewhere. Prague is very cold, and we had to sleep with the windows open.

we lived there for 1 night. It was really clean and perfect for us. We really had a sound sleep and comfortable stay. Everything was systematic and there was no mismanagement. they kept a 10 Euro deposit for the keys but we got it back after a week. no issues. definitely recommended

Great location! I was lucky enough to have a fan by my bed but others were not. The rooms do get quite hot, the bathrooms are okay but worth it for the location!

Lack of aeration (basement), it was really humid. Quite clean but again the humid environment made it clammy. Locker was not secured enough, easy to open without the key. The staff was great! People were really not respectful in the bedroom. Speaking loud at 5AM, listening to videos without earphones. Lack of common area to have diner or just relax outside of the basement.

Ottima posizione, ma i locali sono estremamente trasandati. Due docce e due wc non sono assolutamente sufficienti per venti persone, ma per il prezzo e per la posizione si può lasciar correre. Le finestre lasciano entrare tutto il rumore dalla strada (che è tanto). L'intero edificio puzza.

This was a last minute booking but it was quick and efficient, the receptionist was nice and the apartment had all the facilities needed

Excellent location within a walking distance from the Old Town and a good public transport connection, as well. Nevertheless, you have to consider that you might literally stay in a basement - 8 beds in a very small room, no windows, no fresh air. Door lockings of bathrooms & toilets not working properly (most probably due to overall humidity of the space), therefore you do not have actual privacy. Not our place in general.

Für den Preis top. Man hat eine eigene Küche auf dem Zimmer und ein großes "Wohnzimmer". Auch das Badezimmer ist sehr groß.

Nice staff and placement! We had a room in the basement which was filled with mould and very humid so if you plan on staying longer than one night dont pick the cheapest room.
