This is a highly recommended place for anyone who wishes to be very close to the action, but not in the middle of a sea of tourists. It is just enough off the beaten tourist path that you can feel like you've got the city to yourself. That said, it is only about a 7 minute walk to Charles Bridge, and a 5-10 minute walk to the Prague Castle. There are many restaurants and cafes within very close walking distance.

Eva was not able to meet us this week, but she had arranged for our arrival with the person minding her shop for her on the 1st floor. I suspect we missed out a bit on what this place has been highly regarded for, with Eva not in town, but she let us know in advance.

The apartment is as-described. I think it's easiest if I break it into the pros and cons, to help you get a picture:

Pros: Amazing view, quiet, lots of skylight windows for air and light, tons of space, rustic feel with exposed wood beams, close to everything.

(Possible) Cons: There are 3 steep flights of stairs (2 outside the apartment and 1 inside). For us, it was not a problem, but be aware of it. Laundry is available, but it's on first floor and is washer only, if that matters. The exposed beams of the loft are cool looking, but they also pose a risk for tripping over them (there are two that span the floor) or banging your head in several places, including near the main bed. Be careful! Finally, if it is summer time and the temperature is high, this loft will become very hot, and the sky lights when opened will not be able to compensate for the heat of the sun on the roof. Beware if it's hot summer.

We feel very fortunate that we found this place because we had someone else cancel our reservation at the last minute. Eva was excellent in her communications.

We would stay here again for sure!
