I would recommend this flat. Full details as follows:
Pros:
-Very clean and warm - heating on high in middle of winter
- comfortable double bed though has two single duvets on top not one double
-Good water pressure and there is a tv
-Tesco supermarket 2 mins away (open until 10pm) and other mini marts nearby. Also some restaurants and cafes nearby
-Very quiet and safe street
-Easy to check in - the apt is professionally owned and you go to an office to pick up keys and you can ask questions. Office open until 10pm allowing for late check-ins
- towels, linens, toilet paper and shampoo are provided but you need to bring your own soap (or be creative with the shampoo)
- office staff are very kind and responsive. They will provide you with a free map of Prague they have made and suggest places to visit
Cons:
-If you are not a walker this flat is not for you. It is a 20 min walk from the flat to Charles bridge / centre of the old town. I personally think it is better to stay outside the noisy and crowded old town and enjoy the walk in. Very safe to walk around the touristy areas of Prague to the apartment late at night
- flat is on a quiet street and in a quiet building, however like I suspect a lot of the buildings in Prague are, there is minimal soundproofing eg I could hear the upstairs neighbour walking around in high heels. Not a big issue unless you are a sensitive sleeper
- the curtains are thin with one window facing the opposite wall (not visible by anyone passing by) not having any curtains. If you are light sensitive when you sleep this may not be the place for you
- it is a slight faff to go to the office which is a 10 min walk away (but right next to train station) to pick up keys then go to the apartment but really not that big a deal
