Decent enough hostel. The bathroom in my area was very small. Larger people would have trouble showering. The person at the reception was not particularly helpful. He didn’t know where local laundromats were located, not that there are many in Prague anyway. Location was central and a very short distance from tram lines and two subway lines. Wencelas Square was a five minute walk.

Prague week trip

Excellent central location, within easy walk of both the old and new town. Plenty of restaurants, supermarkets, bars in the immediate area. Rooms were spacious, regularly cleaned and airy. Useful kitchen for cooking/eating. Only -ve is that if you have a bed by the window the street noise from the trams can be disturbing, but not overly excessive.
