    There weren't enough working lockers in the room, the bed was damaged and held together only by tape. The kitchen sink was broken. Overall the place was very run down and quite dirty

    The location is great.

    IS UNDERSTANDABLE THAT IT WAS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE SUMMER AND OVERALL EUROPE WAS TOO HOT, BUT THE ROOM DIDN´T HAVE ANY VENTILATION, AIR CONDITIONER, OR FAN TO COOL DOWN.

    THE LOCATION IS EXCELLENT! RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE CITY CENTER, CLOSE TO THE MAIN SQUARE.

    Not worth it.

    The cleanliness of the place is definitely not the best. The bathroom smells bad, the shower drains clogged and has the dirtiest bathroom exhaust fans I've ever seen. The kitchen is also not clean. The room is very stuffy and hot and we need to open the windows in the summer to get some air, which makes the environment very noisy as the street is very busy all day. The common area of the hostel is very small and has no windows, reducing comfort.

    The location is excellent, about 3 minutes walking from the main square of the historic center of Prague. The room is spacious and has lockers.

    Bathrooms are not in the room, you have to share it with other people in your floor. It is a bit challenging but they were always clean

    I arrived to Prague so early in the morning. They were so helpful and even offered me to rest/sleep in a room until my room is ready. I stayed one night in a shared room and it was all nice. It is located in the old town area, and you can easly walk through the city. Highly recommended, 10/10 👌🏻

    Amazing location: right behind Old Town Square and astronomical clock, on the street of the metro, yet very quiet. 3 minutes from the Jewish quarter, 7 minutes from Karl's Bridge. Great staff - friendly, kind, helpful, and catering to your every need. Very comfortable and women friendly. I came for a few days but kept extending my stay, which says everything.

    It was a basic hostel, no curtains in the room and no mirror. We had to use a duvet to block the light from the window. The bathroom floor always seemed to be soaking

    The location was ideal and the staff were nice

    The weather is too hot this summer. Without air conditioning, the windows needed to stay open for the fresh air all night. However, the sound on the street at night can be noisy.

    The staff is very welcoming and friendly. The location is right in the Jewish quarter and it's very closed to the old town square. The room is spacious. Lot spaces between the beds and a sofa and sitting area for people to sit in the room for a chat.

    sometimes the light in one of the bathrooms didn’t work but was not a major issue as a second bathroom was available.

    location is excellent for sightseeing, pubs and food. beds were very comfy and the rooms were always kept warm. staff were also very nice and accommodating. there was never waiting for the facilities (toilet showers), so sharing wasn’t a problem.
