Although this is a studio apartment, it is enormous. And spic and span - like a brand new apartment! Also, it faces a courtyard behind the building. So you don't hear any street noise or barking dogs.

Jan and Jana were extremely helpful. Not only did they pick me up from the airport (for a small fee). They gave me maps and replied to emails giving me step by step subway directions to different places, anytime I needed it.

Upon request, they brought over a fan. And the last morning at around 9am, when the Internet stopped working, they came over to fix it, even though I was checking out just a few hours later.

Speaking of Internet, they gave me a small wifi device I could carry in my backpack, giving me wifi 24/7 no matter where I was. A really great extra feature.

This apartment was quieter than most of the hotels and "pensions" I stayed at during my tour around eastern Europe. However, if you are a light sleeper, you should know that you may hear the sounds of neighbors opening and closing the doors to their apartments. I found that running a fan helped muffle these sounds.
