The location is the star of this listing. Convenient access to buses, trams and the metro make it easy to get around Prague from here. It is also centrally located so that a 30 to 45 minute walk will get you to many tourist attractions and beautiful sights. But you don't even have to leave the neighborhood to experience the stunning beauty of Prague. Within a few blocks are great restaurants, gorgeous architecture and a huge park (Havlíčkovy Sady). Kavarna Zanzibar, Bad Jeff's BBQ and Las Adelitas are but a few of the fantastic food options nearby. I walked the neighborhood every day and really enjoyed the Vinohrad area and the many small parks.
The apartment is clean and comfortable. The kitchen is tiny but entirely adequate. I cooked most of my meals during my stay with no problems. It was pretty cold outside but the apartment stayed very comfortable, not too hot or too cold. The bathroom is cozy but clean and modern. The bed is also very comfortable. For some reason most of the TV stations are German language programming, and there are literally 100s of channels. It's a great smart TV with YouTube and Netflix built in.
The building itself has charm and character, which is both good and bad. There is an elevator but it stops between floors so you will need to carry your luggage up or down a flight of stairs to reach your room. The windows are updated so sound from the street is minimal and never bothered me, but you will hear your neighbors. Even with a 2nd door in the room to insulate you from hallway noise you will hear doors closing and voices coming and going. I was disappointed to be able to hear a lot of what my upstairs neighbors were doing. I'm a light sleeper so this may not pose a problem for others.
The laundry room in the basement has 3 machines that wash and dry for free, but be prepared for a cycle to take over 6 hours from start to finish. This is only a minor inconvenience but it's good to plan for it. And the basement is only accessible by stairs as well, so keep that in mind.
I spent a month here and only had minor issues. Check-in was a little scary due to my code not working to open the room door (the building door code worked). I sent a message and received no response, but eventually I found housekeeping and they let me in to the room right away. There is someone in the office at the entrance who is very friendly and helpful, but the office is not open regular hours. Room cleaning was great to have for a long stay but I was surprised to find that light cleaning supplies are not made available to guests other than for washing dishes. I asked for a broom but was told there were none available.
I don't know that I would spend another long stay in the building (primarily due to noise concerns) but I can recommend this place for short stays (or long stays if you're not a light sleeper) and feel that it is located in one of the best neighborhoods to experience local life in Prague but still have convenient access to all the tourist attractions first time visitors would want to see.
