The apartment is absolutely stunning and Jaroslav is a first class host. It is one block from the river bank behind a tree lined park with in walking distance to The National Theater and Charles Bridge. Trees block off most of the noise from the trams but do not block any of the stunning views. If you don't want to walk up the steps there is a key activated elevator. Besides the views the apartment has a modern kitchen, large bath with decent water pressure, several chairs and sofas and a comfy beds. The big bedroom faces the court yard and leads to a balcony, even with the doors open we were not bothered by the noise of patrons leaving the many pubs that litter Old Town. I would recommend this apartment even without the magnificent castle view.
