8.3Verified guest“I had a wonderful stay at a centrally located hostel in Prague. The location was superb, with supermarkets, coffee shops, restaurants, and bars all within a short walking distance. The hostel is also close to many beautiful sightseeing spots. The staff was friendly and the modern bathrooms were a plus. I particularly liked the key card-operated lockers in the rooms with extra security. The reception being open 24/7 was very convenient. I enjoyed the little terrace and my room even had a balcony facing a road under Wenceslas Square.”
