The hotel is basic but clean and has all you need. A nice touch is some rooms have refrigerators to cool a water or soda. They have a breakfast buffet, typical of all Czech hotels and restaurants, always stocked and they have a nice sweet cake to finish off your meal. Very reasonable price and a good, convenient area with a bus stop just around the corner.
In conclusion; I could recommend it because although the room did not work, the Hotel staff was very attentive and resolved the situation, providing excellent attention or customer service. Thanks, Mr. Peter
The hotel was 1 star not 3 star as indicated on your rating . It was old and broken I had chat with one of your staff completing about the state of this hotel . Bedding was clean. Staff were good and helpful breakfast was good considering the hotel was 1 star not hotels fault . There was was a dead mouse entrance to the main building . Carpet absently dirty chair and settee full of stains . We tried not to stay
in the room . Just go back for sleep . No TV. No tea or coffee facility no fridge. Considering this hotel was 3 star. This is laughable . I will take this further .
One staff member was great. He was very helpful, welcoming and seemed happy. Also the breakfast staff were great. There we 2 front counter staff who were grumpy looking and not very friendly both days we dealt with them. 1 made us feel like she was doing us a favour just for doing her job. We didnt even ask for anything extra.
There were cob webs it the room, not vaccummed properly. The paint was chipping in the washroom [alot]. The safe did not work and was not fixed the 3 night we stayed there.
We had breakfast once nothing special. Food wasn't very warm.
The hotel seems to be run down, rooms and hallways.
There was lots of dust on the hairdryer and on the shelfs.
The towels and bedsheets were clean. Would not stay here again.

The hotel has a vintage old style vibe..
The room was clean enough, but it could be better.
The male receptionist and his wife were very kind and helpful, while the night-shift receptionist was terrible, mean and very disrespectful.
However, the hotel is only two minutes away from a bus stop to the town center and this is a plus
Cozy accomodations, easy to access via bus and the owner is very helpful. He also has a coin/currency collection, so I recommend bringing your home country currency as a simple gift!
The room was clean but the curtains were hanging of the rails , net curtains dirty, needs updating old chipped furniture .
Holes in the ceiling above the shower .
Location no where near the city but was advertised as not far away near by like
No shuttle bus to the airport
But was sold with that service
The lifts no lights .
Dirty old carpets
Food ok but needed more hot food variety .
Very disappointed .
The hotel needs a serious update .
Very helpful staff. Very friendly and tried to help in every situation. But no transport to airport had to call taxi. Could do with lick of paint in bedrooms.
The front desk was rude. I've never encountered a front desk that rude. As someone who is not familiar with Prague, I expected someplace at least somewhat convenient to the city center based on the reviews. It wasn't. I suspect all positive reviews are fake/employees who "booked" a stay just to post a review for the company. There is no reason anyone would stay here. I was there all of 10 minutes then checked out. I would like a refund. This place is horrible and the staff is incredibly rude.
Room was dirty. There was food and dirt on the floor from previous guest, there was a chair that was visibly dirty, the shower looked like it was falling apart, the toilet wasnt bolted down so it wobbled from side to side, the keys are made of cheap soft metal so if you accidentally turn it the wrong way theres a good chance it will bend or break, a lot of the furniture and appliances were falling apart. The one lady at the front is also a bit rude. Dont stay here unless you have no other options

Too expensive over New Year’s Eve
Awfully expensive for what the room looked like. 4 star price in a 2 star hotel. There were other guests in the hotel playing loud music, luckily far enough from our room so we got the chance to sleep well.
Sorry guys, maybe this was an exception with the price and all, but not booking again.
Staff was ok, friendly, tiny breakfast offered in the morning, but that’s it.
