Martin's flat is perfect for people wanting to stay outside the busy town centre. With the excellent public transport system almost right on the doorstep, getting around is very easy from there. For car users, the flat is right next to the main highways too. The quarter is certainly not the prettiest in Prague, but is only a short walk from some of Prague's most beautiful historic sites. Martin gave us lots of information when we arrived and even lent us a map. He was the perfect host and really made us feel at home. The flat is located in a very pleasant building opposite a small park. Not many shops in the immediate area but there is a huge shopping mall just one metro stop away. There is also a good fruit and veg stall near the metro entrance on weekdays.
