We really enjoyed staying at the Blue Apartment. Margaryta was an excellent host and went out of her way to make our stay pleasant. They picked us up at the bus station for the same price as a taxi, gave us maps and general information of some places to go and how to get there. The Apartment is right around the couner from a great resteraunt called, Restaurant Merenda, really excellent Chezch food, with great presentation and really cheap prices. A definite bonus and great reason to stay just a little bit off the beaten path. It does take 15 min to walk to the beginning of the main sights but it takes longer to get back because you are fighting a slight incline which is harder to bare after walking around all day. It was nice to have some peace and quiet because in the main tourist area people are walking around in droves all hours of the night. Come monday moring the area by the blue apartment is noisy too with everone going to work and construction going on sometimes. I was woken up by a very loud banging which souded like a jack hammer. I would definitely recommend ear plugs if you are staying past the weekend. My boyfried slept right through the noise though. Margaryta was truly sweet to us and even offered us a better room at no aditional cost because the original room she approved us for was already booked before we could book it. I am not sure if I would stay in that part of town again but we had a great time.
