Anna was a wonderful host with many great suggestions for food, and to see the sights. She was waiting for us at the airport and made sure we settled comfortably in the apartment. Yes you can walk into the old downtown in about 15 minutes and there is a tram/train stop in front of her house which takes you downtown in a few minutes if you get tired of walking. The internet works great in the apartment, nice and fast if you must do some work. The restaurant Hamburk right across the street is an excellent restaurant for Czech food and it is a local hangout where the locals are very friendly and you get great service.
