This place has a great location and was cozy enough for a winter stay. Karlin, the neighborhood it’s in, is a hip, up-and-coming neighborhood full of good restaurants. Also, unlike places closer to Old Town, it feels like locals live and work here. However, it is close enough to walk to, or to take public transportation to.
The apartment itself had decent accommodations, decently spacious for two people, and a solid WiFi connection (had numerous video calls and used a VPN with no issues).
The downsides:
When cooking, the smoke/gas smell really takes over the kitchen/living room area so you have to open the windows. We were told that it’s partly due to a change in how buildings in Prague handle their gas fixtures (there’s a gas smell to help detect leaks), so maybe this would be encountered anywhere.
The doors on the bedrooms have frosted windows, which if a roommate turns on a light in another room, it can wake you up if you’re a light sleeper.
