This apartment is the apartment to book if you like to live and feel like a local for the time being. It's a real Prague experience. We found it pretty central, our focus was not mainly the old town (packed with tourists and extremely noisy). The neighborhood is mid-range to upscale, the apartment building pretty upscale, public transport right around the corner and easily accessible, 3 supermarkets very close to the apartment and a nice park (and many other) right there. We don't have kids but the area is very child friendly and safe. The best place to come back to after spending the whole day around and about.
Smichov area is just perfect and I highly recommend this area! Nice cafe's, nice restaurants. Fewer tourists, more locals, super nice, quiet yet lively. We mostly enjoyed the walks back to the apartment.
The apartment is spotless (!) clean and even more nice than in the pictures. And Katka, she is the best, so so nice and welcoming. She makes you feel right at home and don't want to leave.
We are very picky too when it comes to accommodation, relied on public transport and were looking for the local feel. This place has it all and more. We rate this place a well deserved 5 stars. Prague is a magical place, but having booked this apartment made it even more magical because we felt like real locals and the apartment is so nice. Cannot recommend it enough!
