Unfortunately, my experience at this apartment was quite bad. Sarah did arrange for a taxi pickup for me when I arrived, but the driver was late. As I was exiting the taxi, the driver tried to sell me a map of Prague.Upon arrival at the apartment, the lobby had a bad odor (as did the apartment); the source was a display of large garbage bins in the lobby. When I commented about the odor in the apartment, the woman (Sarah's future mother-in-law) instructed me to just open the windows. The keys to the front door gate did not work properly and had to be replaced. I asked Andreas, the woman's son that had escorted me to the apartment, and who had dropped by the apartment to replace the front lobby gate keys, for an alarm clock which he supplied, thank you Andreas. Not only did the apartment have a bad odor, the kitchen dishwasher was broken and all the kitchen cupboards contained various left over food products (partially consumed). The bathroom vanity also contained various toiletries that were partially used. The apartment could really use a thorough cleaning-it is truly appalling and totally unacceptable! I had mentioned to Andreas that I wanted to visit the DOX museum and he said that Sarah could drive me there tomorrow. While I was out exploring the Old Town, Sarah had dropped by the apartment and had left me a note about my departure time and directions to the DOX which were incorrect. I did manage to make it to the museum on my own, but please provide your guests with accurate directions.
As a world traveler that is accustomed to staying in 4 to 5 stars accommodations, this apartment rated 1 star and is the perfect apartment for students (which seemed to be the primary residents of the building).
I will not recommend this apartment to anybody I know.
