    Perfect minimalistic place to stay for a group of friends.

    Having their price range and many positive traces not so much to complain. Lighting approach in the room was a bit 'too minimalistic' - there was no any local lamps. Not a big deal but if you need local light - take some portable solution with you - sockets were in place (near the bed). Dealing with the local elevator could be a bit tricky - it is a very small and slow one, may not open the doors from the first button press. Not a big deal - gave us some fun - just a point to be aware.

    This is 'not only hostel' - they offer 'like 3-star' rooms and even apartments. With a very attractive prices. Environment is minimalistic but I liked it. Significant part of staff speak Russian and Ukrainian but people around are pretty international. Hotel administration is very flexible. Had a 2 bookings connected because of the changing group size. They managed to arrange 'connected' experience practically upgrading booking for free. And I have reports of similar actions from other friends. Breakfasts are pretty decent. For 160 CZK they offer buffet (not bad) but for a bit more (220 CZK) you can receive it with hot meal selected from the short list. For 2 nights I really liked this approach. Add to this that they have pretty fair bar prices and offer good quality tea. Location is nice. Traditional tourists sites and train station are in walking distance but giving the public transportation system transparency I bought 72h universal ticket for 330 CZK - tram and metro stations are below 5 mins walking. Overall impression from me as a 2-3 persons hotel room booker - hidden gem, especially if you prefer practicality and minimalism. Cannot say anything about dormatory experience here.

    the floor looks like the same they have at the famous library of the Strahov Monastery: it's beautiful but it creaks so much :(

    The staff was really kind and useful. The bathrooms were clean as well as the rooms. I found the location perfect: 20 minutes on foot from the train station and quite near the center of the city, also I felt safe walking to hostel by myself at night. very good point: free luggage store before and after your staying :)

    Other tenants left common areas messy, especially in the morning when people check out in general. Super soft and fluffy pillow that’s not comfortable for sleeping. Beds don’t have curtains. I forgot my earplugs at home and I was suffering at nights during my stay, a few people in the room snored so bad.

    Location, cleanliness in the room, staff

    The heater was not getting high enough to warm the whole room.

    We have booked at last minute due to train arrival at 6am so we just needed to stay warm and sleep a little bit after travelling during the night and our check in to another hotel was only at 2pm. The staff guy who checked us in was so compassionate and offered us to check out at 12pm instead 11am which was lovely so we could sleep and have a shower with no rush. Very spacious room!

    The blackout curtains weren't wide enough, so light was coming in. The matress was sinking at the feet and the pillow was too big and soft which made it difficult to manage. There was barely any cleaning. I stayed there for a week and the floor wasn't mopped not enen once, and I needed to ask for the toilet to be cleaned in order for it not to smell.

    The room felt like a small apartment. It was quiet and there was an adjustment with a sick tenant. There was an elevator and we could adjust the temperature of the heating.

    Don't leave your staff at the locker without padlock, sometimes they have misunderstandings with the beds so the housekeepers can put your staff to the lost and found.

    Everything was super clean and modern. The quality of the bedsheets even in 8 bed dorm was beyond my expectations. The staff was also good! They resolved the issue with the locker right on time.

    One of my main things I didn’t like about the property was in my dorm the floorboards would creek and make the beds shake every time someone would walk across the room. This means every time someone would go to go to use the toilet it would shake my bunkbed and wake me up every time. The beds were comfortable but ultimately I wasn’t able to have a good night sleep for any other days that I stayed there.

    Reception/bar area was a really nice warm and welcoming area to meet other solo travellers or group travellers and to spend time having some drinks to get to know each other.

    I turned up at 10pm and was informed that there was an age limit in the share dorm rooms. I had to take a single room which was a lot more expensive than the dorm room. I was disappointed there was no help from the staff to maybe suggest other appropriate accommodation.

    There was breakfast available to purchase.

    Private rooms are better than most apartments you would find on airbnb. Clean, comfortable and spacious.
