I stayed in a dormitory. Shared toilet was clean.. kitchen was occupied with all essentials... They also provided the locker for luggage before I checked in! My only complaint is the noise. May be it is becausey room was on the road side, I couldn't sleep a single night... I can hear loud noises of the buses/cars passing by, people shouting!

Best hostel! Just a couple of minutes away from Narodni Trida (metro) station, there are plenty of eateries around and a famous ice cream parlour - literally a few doors away. Despite being in a main road with the trams running, it was relatively quiet. Place was clean and spacious. They allowed me to check in early. 24/7 reception and the kitchen was generally open. Lounge with huge screen. A special thank to Stela on reception, who was exceptional and lovely. So helpful and knowledgeable. Will definitely stay here again.

Great location, nice place & people, 👍

The good: The staff were really helpful and friendly, the room was spacious with huge windows and the location was perfect. There were lots of period features such as the big wooden doors and windows. The lockers in the room were really big which was great too, and all the people I met there were great and I made many friends. Towels provided, and padlocks could be borrowed. Bedding was clean and comfy bed. The not so good: could be a bit cleaner, in some places it felt a bit unclean eg the radiator in the bathroom needed a good wipe down and some areas were a bit tired/old eh carpet in dormitory. Worth noting: hostel was listed as being accessible for disabled guests, however I would say it was semi-accessible. Eg the access to the lift requires entering a code on a box about 6'/184cm high on the wall, and the old historic doors not designed for wheelchair access and proved somewhat difficult for getting around within the hostel. Some rooms have bath not shower. Please take it into account if you have specific accessibility needs especially if traveling solo

Bathroom Not so private

when you try to book the hotel you are informed that the room is private. I sent an email confirming if it would be really private because my friends and I prefer to stay in a private room with a bathroom just for our use, despite the description of the room stating that it is private, from the photos I thought that maybe it wasn't then I sent an email asking and they informed that the bathroom was in front of the room but it would be for our use only. When I got there I saw that it wasn't like that. the attendant tried to make me believe that private means sharing with rooms on the same floor. after complaining and sending an email with prints of what they had told me before, 2 nights later, when the room that actually has a private bathroom became available, they switched us to another room. better pay attention if the room you are in has a bathroom or not, regardless of what you have in the booking information. the shared bathroom was dirty for 2 days and when they went to clean it I realized that the cleaning was done badly

Great Prague Hostel!

Great kitchen setup, loads of hostel tours/classes etc, unfortunately didn’t work out for us to do any. Staff great - helpful & accommodating (except unfortunately for two girls on night shift) stayed in twin room -large, very quiet, beds OK. Keycode entry, safe area, close to everywhere you would want to go, walking or otherwise. Would definitely stay again. Well down Downtown Hostel!
