Another Prague Scam
During the check in process my card was charged a 200 euro hold for any damages, fine thats understandable. We stayed at this apartment one night since we were flying back to the states the next day. I check my bank today, and the 200 euro hold is posted. This is incredible, and another black mark on an overall great city filled with scammers.

Good apartment,terrible service from rental agent.
Had to fetch and return the keys across the river from another part of the city. No parking near rooms. Tried to have deposit credited to the original credit card but unfriendly staff wanted international back account details to do deposit or insisted on paying in cash(Krone) which I had to pay to convert to Euro as we were leaving Czech.

Apartment in Old Town
Spacious apartment but needs updating. Centrally based stepping out to shops so noise can be heard if there is a large crowd outside or dustmen emptying bins early in the morning. No maids coming to clean or change towels during our 6 days stay and had to go and buy own toilet tissues. There is no reception there so when checking in you need to go to Red and Blue Hotel which is about 25 mins walk from the apartment to collect the keys but we have arranged for a pick up from airport and the driver took us there to collect keys before going to the apartment .

Was great!
This place was great!! The location, location, location, location was amazing!!! Close to everything. The only thing I would change is to have more body soap (so bring some) & at night was little noisy, but we were so tired, we all fell asleep with no issues. I would stay here again for sure! Loved Prague!!!!!!!! (Even more so than Venice)

Flight was late so got in at 2:30 am. Pick up on keys a long ways from room. Elevator was really working. Had to walk four flights in dark. Gave us wrong room key. Luckily we tried room next store and we stayed there. Next day they wanted us to move After talking with them they did let us stay in our room which was great, but still a bit annoying. Overall this room was great. Just the process was confusing.

But if a pain to check in at a different hotel which was about 25/30 mins walk. Otherwise good location and ok for friends on a stag. Wouldn't stop there with family as tnhings were dated and scuffs etc across the walls from previous stag parties etc im sure. Was perfect for 4 guys wanting to drink and just have a base to stay.

Horrible service!
Dissapointed after the first night without heating and hot water. We were sleeping in sweaters! Guy at the reception told me as a help to turn the radiator on!!! In the morning the front desk didnt know anything so I asked them again to fix it or to relocate us. Needed to call them several times to at least get a hot shower in another apartment. There was mattress instead of sofa bed - sofa bed was broken, not even able to sit on it, one hand towel for 6 people, no soap, 4 set of plates only! The only positive thing about the apartment is the location. The operator had refused to give us any disount for the fist night. There are hundreds of cozy apartments around the Prague, do not choose this one!

apartment in the center of old town
the apartment is what u see on the photos. u need to go to the checkin place (which is abt 5mins away) to check in and u will have to either paid a deposit of 5000 kouners or 200euros in cash or card. ( this was not what i expect but i can understand the reasons for it) After doing that then u can go to your apartment to check in. My advise is to take their transport service. it is 25euros for airport and will be cheaper if u do a return journey. my return journey was to train station and it was only 10euros. really worth it for 4 person with 4 lugguages. if u arrive late at night like us. make sure u read this. use the swipe key to enter the entrance door and the keypad is to your left of the door, then walk straight till u see a glass door and again use your swipe key to go through it. then u will see a very small door on the left side, that is the lift which is very small. can only fit 3 person. After that, you will be able to see your apartments and use the swipe card to enter again. do not expect anyone there as there is no office at all. The apartment is great but is a little worn out and if u are a light sleeper like me. you might not like it as you can heard pple talking and the slanted windows has no curtains so it will be very bright.

Great Apartments
Great Apartment in a fantastic position, the pictures on Hotels.com are from a few of the apartments as they have several in the block. The one we stayed in was lovely and the check-in staff were very polite, They also arranged transfers for us both ways, the drivers were lovely and on time. Will definitely be back and stay here again.

What a nighmare. Do not believe the photos.
We were hoping to sleep at night but this is not possible in the front bedroom with all the street noise until 3:30 in the morning. The rooms we saw on the internet sight (Hotels.com) do not reflect the actual apartment. The bathrooms are no where near what the photos showed. They are antiquated and very small and dark. The photos make it appear that you are getting a nice apartment. The furniture, lighting and decor are completely different then reality. Examples, 1 hand towel for 4 people, not soap for the bathrooms, etc. You get the idea. We tried to receive a refund but we were denied this by the property. They did allow us to change apartments but it did not matter. All in all and I would rate this property as "stay away at all costs".

Lovely and spacious - great location
Other reviews are correct: it is a real pain having to firstly go to the other side of town to collect the keys from staff at a hotel! Once at the apartment, it is a test to navigate the entrance hall and which lift to take (you have to go outside and across a courtyard rather than continue to the end of the corridor. We initially took a separate lift to another set of apartments that are also accessible through the main door off the street, ending up at the patio doors to a flat occupied by a very bemused guest!) However, the apartment is lovely and very spacious and definitely comfortable. There are 4 or so apartments owned by the company in that building and I think we had the best one: on the top (4th) floor - duplex. Makes it harder when the lift is out of service though, which it was for the majority of our stay! At least it was working when we arrived, allowing us to transport the suitcases up all the stairs. Not when leaving though. Finally, what a great location! Surprisingly, street noise was not really a problem much.

In the middle of old town
This apt is right in the middle of old town, but it was not too noisy. The apt was well appointed, with a nice living area, 3 bathrooms!!, and lots of beds. The kitchen was kind of small but we were not cooking a lot. There is a roof top patio with a tale and chairs. There were a few setbacks though. One was having to check in at a very far away location. If we had not rented a taxi it would have been difficult. Also the taxi cannot get very close to the apt, so be prepared to haul your luggage along the cobblestone streets.

Great location and spacious apartment. 2+1/2 bathrooms for 2 bedroom apartment. No more pluses. Poor cleaned, old, bad maintained. Headache with check-in. No any hotel representative / concierge - you are on your own. All contacts through the phone. No air conditioner, very hot in warm weather. The temperature in the room was above 29 Celsius even with windows opened (the outside temperature was less)

Far away from stores, it's near terminal 2 that is under renovations so there's minimal places to shop but they do have some fancy restaurants inside the building. Besides that, the hotel was way above expectations. Highly recommended

Terrible choice for a place to stay in Prague
Good: Centrally located to old town. Very close to the astronomical clock. This is the only good thing about this place. Bad: The list is long. - Terrible Check-in process. One needs to go to other side of the town to collect keys and then come back all the way to old town to stay. Taxi outside train station will flee you, royally. It costs. CZK 150, but they charge CZK 600. Always call in a taxi or uber. - The hotel staff, although, polite, are not very efficient. They keys they gave us in the first instance, wasn't activated when we reached apartment, so, we had to call in, wait for 20 mins on the street after a tired journey, so their reception person can come down and handover the keys. - Terrible WiFi connection. Didn't work for most part of the day, except late in the night. - The place pics in the ad are very very misleading. DO NOT go by them. The actual place looks nothing like that. - Apartment is pretty old, stuffy, smelly.
