- Di Silvestro (10/5): Comodissimo - Ambiente pulito ,molto silenzioso ,comodo per girare la citta ,unica pecca mancano le cialde per il caffe e sarebbe carino trovarle per il periodo che si soggiorna , per il resto e top!!
- Phil (9/5): - The location was superb, 2 min walk to the centre of the old town.
Very spacious, clean and well kitted out. The shower is amazing, powerful and lots of hot water. Only tiny thing... no coffee pods for.coffee machine. Would have been nice to have coffee sachets / tea bags etc to make a brew when you arrive.
- Julia (10/5): Отличен Избор! - Everything! not applicable!
- Vlada (10/5): - Konforan, udoban i cist apartman na izvanrednoj lokaciji Nedostaju ubruku ili koja krpa vise :)
- lorena (9/5): - La ubicación y comodidad. Calentito y con lo necesario Muchas escaleras para subir, muy empinadas sin ascensor, tener en cuenta no apto para movilidad reducida. Algo de ruido nocturno
- Kasper angelo (10/5): -
- Murat (9/5): Mükemmel konum, oda konsepti harika - Konum mükemmeldi. Oda konseptide şehrin havasını yansıtıyordu. Oda konforu, temizliği ve ihtiyaç malzemeleri yeterliydi. Anahtar teslim ofisinin için hem girişte hem çıkışta 7-8 dakika yürüme mesafede olması. Valizlerle taşlı sokaklarda ilerlemek zor oluyor. Bir kaç saat için valiz tesliminin olmaması.
- Vladimir (10/5): Пишите в одном сообщении что ключи от апартаментов находятся не там где будет проживать человек - Центр города Не предупредили что на такси подъехать к апартаментам нельзя
- Šarka (10/5): -
- Michelle (7/5): Great! Parking and checking in was just a big issue. The listing says that they have a parking garage, which is partiall - Great location and very spacious. The listing says that they have a parking garage, which is partially correct. The parking garage is quite a distance away from the apartment and you pay €39 per day, which was not disclosed by die property beforehand. You also need to check in at a location 20 minutes drive away from the apartments, making the check in and check out extremely inconvenient.
- Stelian (10/5): Cosy apartment in the middle of the city - The location is beautiful, right in the middle of the old town, on one of the most popular streets. The apartment was more than enough for 4 people, with a lot of space and intimacy. Very clean, warm enough in the cold nights and very cosy. The lack of of toiletries in the bathroom and the dim lights.
- Teresa (9/5): - A decoração e a localização, super central
Recomendo Podiam ter produtos de casa de banho.
- Lorena (10/5): -

Emplacement incroyable nous avons tout fait à pied
- Christian (10/5): -
- Lucia (9/5): - La ubicación, inmejorable El check in y el.check out hay que hacerlos en otra dirección y está algo lejos. Si llegas tarde o te vas temprano de la ciudad, esto es bastante engorroso.
- Emilie (8/5): Très bon séjour - Très bel appartement, très bien situé ( on peut aller partout à pied ), bonne literie . Ça mériterait des rideaux plus occultant pour la nuit .
Manque de lampes.
- TZU CHENG (5/5): - 地點好,住宿舒適 沒電梯,提重行李到三樓,費力又危險

- Igor (10/5): -
- Gourbier (8/5): - La situation géographique est idéale
Bel espace, bonne literie Le manque d’éclairage
Le manque d’isolation phonique (rue très passante et très bruyante, tard en soirée)
Le manque de condiment de 1ere nécessite (dosette café, thé, sucre, sel, poivre, huile)
- TINGYI (6/5): - 領取鑰匙不方便。櫃檯報到時更換了我的住宿地點,和我原本訂房的位置不一樣。
- Rocio (10/5): Maravillosa , si vuelvo no dudaré envolver a alojarme allí - Limpieza y cercanía . No había ascensor y el sistema de Lili es es complicado

- Caroline (10/5): -
- Heidi (10/5): - Lage ist top
Sehr zentral
- Christian (10/5): - service
- Regina (9/5): - Lokalita, čistota, vybavení. Složité ovládání elektřiny - vypínače. Chyběl sprchový gel. Zvláštní ovládání vodovodní baterie. Kafe a čaj v kuchyni by potěšil.
- Lenka (10/5): -
- Sam Vienna (7/5): - Location is great and apartment is big and toilet has a bidet Apartment is on 2nd floor and no lift.
Reception is 1.5km away from Apartment and parking is in a Mall which is another hassle but not a big issue
- beyan (7/5): -
- Izabela (8/5): Jestem zadowolona - Idealna lokalizacja , w samym centrum Pragi Ze względu na lokalizację obiektu, głośno w nocy na ulicach
- Cosimo (7/5): - Apprtamento con charm in posizione eccellente per visitare la città.
Intervento di pulizia a metà periodo di soggiorno offerto nel prezzo. Arredamento pensato per fare effetto, ma mancano armadi per riporre i vestiti.
Mancava una scopa per poter pulire il pavimento in autonomia.
- Oliver (9/5): -
- AbbsFam (6/5): Wet but nice - Beautifully decorated, centrally located, with full comfort amenities of home like a kitchen, living room, work space... On our first night, during a heavy rain, a lot of water came through the roof/ceiling puddling into the apartment. They mopped it up and gave us a bucket and extra towels to manage. Thankfully it only sprinkled the rest of our stay so we stayed dry. Picking up keys was a 15 minute walk from the apartment, that was not clear in the booking confirmation.
- Valentina (10/5): Nice stay, very convenient and nice atmosphere - Convenient and big enough Didn’t check before booking, so totally on me :( but doesn’t have airco and it was really warm.
- Davit (7/5): Good location - The central location in the old town No wardrobe or facility for hanging clothes
- Tatiana (9/5): Great appartment in the City center - Rooms are big and clean.
The apartment is in the city center.
It’s close to train station too. The picture that we got by service man with a key is not correct. We recommend to take a new photo, there is another shop near the enter door now, it took rime to understand it.
- Anne (8/5): Very good - Great location. No wardrobe in 2 bed apartment
- Ondrej (8/5): Good value for money but not suitable for people with heavy luggage - Beautiful and spacious apartment in a historical part of the city Lot of stairs and no elevator. Necessity to check in and check out in other location
- Michal (9/5): Great service and stay.highly recommended - Superb location 1min from the Astronomical clock. Close to all Prague attractions! Got a bit difficulty to find it first as no signs inside building directing to the apartment.
- Roshan (3/5): Apartment in the center of old town with plenty of shortcomings. - The apartment is located right in the middle of old town bustling with tourist. Very close most tourist attractions and plenty of food choices 1. Apartment on 2nd floor of the building having very steep spiral staircase. The information provided in booking advertisement conceals this fact. Very difficult for persons with physical difficulties to climb these stairs.
2. Apartment is located in the building we're there are other apartments ( owned by others) with similar name. Host need to put proper signage on ground floor to differentiate it from other apartment.
3.The reception desk of the host is situated in a different street ( about 10 minutes away ) from the apartment. Collecting the key for check in and handing over the key after check out is very inconvenient . Host should think of installing lockbox etc to keep the keys for collection in the entrance of same building.
4. Cupboard is missing...hanging clothes is a biggest challenge without a cupboard.
5. Better house keeping required specifically on top of kitchen hood.
6. Apartment need better lighting...current lighting is very dull.
- Leonidas (9/5): Superb -
- Chaseley (8/5): Excellent location in the heart of Old Town. Large apartment that fits 4 comfortably. - Location is perfect - in the heart of everything Old Town. Easily walk to all sites. Excellent place to base your exploring from.
Apartment is big enough for 4 people with luggage to exist comfortably. The location of the reception desk is a good 10 min walk (dragging luggage across cobblestones) from the apartment.
Bathroom is an ensuite style - ok for families.
No basic supplies provided such as coffee for the coffee machines in the apartment. Particularly as the cofeee machines are so specific. These 'additions' are often included in many other accommodations and for the price paid for this apartment, the lack of these small efforts is noticed. Also, there is a filter machine with filter papers, but the glass pot is non-existent - why have it there if it is completely useless to anyone.
- Rimvydas (9/5): Superb -
- Sachith (8/5): Great location at a great price! - Perfect location and very spacious! Great value for what you pay for. Collection of keys was a little inconvenient, but super manageable overall.
- Płonka (9/5): Superb -
- Ntanira (7/5): Good - Excellent location No elevator, had to go up two flights of stairs and the second was very high, making it difficult when carrying suitcases
- Muhammet (9/5): Superb - Best location ever
- Tsitsino (7/5): Good -
- Siddharth (10/5): Exceptional -
- Inga (10/5): Amazing. - Everything. .
- Francesca (7/5): Good if you don’t like to walk - If you don’t like to walk at all, it’s perfect because it’s in the center.
Very clean. Not enough light in the flat, very noisy every night if you open just one of the two double windows, the pillows are so flat that it seems you sleep without, no socket to plug the phone near the bed at the entrance.
Very bad that you have to pay to leave the bags after the checkout, moreover you have to go back to the reception and after the payment you’ve to go to a hotel nearby to leave them, very uncomfortable.
- Mina (5/5): Only for youth vacation. - Located right In the heart of old city center. No privacy in rooms since curtains were not right size and opposite windows have direct view.
No shower complimentary soap and shampoo.not even one bottle of water in fridge for the exhausted travellers come inside. Key must be picked up by customers costing more on taxi.and no AC making the rooms hot and humid even with ceiling fan.not recommended for 50 plus age. Terribly dangerous stairs with no elevator.
- Magdab (10/5): Exceptional -
- Joan (9/5): We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful, conveniently located apartment. - Location was excellent. We appreciated the secure building. Very spacious flat and thoughtfully decorated. Fully equipped kitchen and beautiful big bathroom. Very clean and nice bedsheets. The street was very noisy at night so you had to close the windows and the apartment became warm. We could have used 2 floor fans((1 by each bed) to help cool it down. The ceiling fan helped a bit but needed more.
There was a coffee maker but it was missing the glass pot. We informed staff but they did not provide. There was a broken burner grate on the gas stove. If you placed a pot on it, it would tip over and spill towards you. The staff said they would get fixed.
- Martha (7/5): Good - Location is close to attractions, shops and restaurants There are 42 steps to reach the apartment.
The 1st 20 are normal steps. The 2nd 22, are very steep, narrow and difficult to climb..
Also, there is no place to hang your clothes.. only a hook for your coat.
Reception to hotel is at a different location. Not convenient, you either take a taxi or strugle pulling luggage through peble stone streets.
- Ely301 (10/5): Exceptional -
- Konstantinos (9/5): Excellent! - Great, convenient location. Excellent apartment, spacious, beautiful, fantastically comfortable bed and excellent shower! kitchen could have had some very basic things to help tired travellers, such as washing up liquid, antibacterial wipes/spray, some bags for rubbish (the bins in kitchen and bathroom were too small and no bags provided so we could not empty any of our rubbish in kitchen and bathroom for the three days that we stayed there), extra toilet tissue (for a family of three staying there!) also, bathroom was ensuite.
- Ki (5/5): Passable - Convenient to approach everywhere. Too cold the room in the night
- Lenhard (8/5): Very good - There was plenty of space for my family of 4. It's Very close to the Cathedral. The Steep stairs to get to the apartment, It Would have been nice to know about those in advance. The Lack of Parking or even just pause spots to drop off/pick up luggage.
- Sandi (4/5): No hot water; unresponsive manager - The location of this apartment was wonderful. The fact that it listed the property as Karlova 42 was totally inaccurate and frustrating. Buried in the many, many emails I received was information that we were supposed to pick up the keys ar a reception office over a km away from the apartment.
The people at reception were very friendly. The hot water heater was broken. We only stayed one night and did not use hot water in the evening, so did not discover this until we tried to take showers in the morning. I called reception, who sent a technician. He spent considerable time and then we were told to wait an hour (understandable). However, there was still no hot water at all. When I returned keys to the reception office, I told them I expected a partial refund. The receptionist said she’d let the manager know and that person would contact me through email. To date (two days later), I have received no communication.
- Ugo (9/5): Superb -
- Gizem (10/5): Exceptional - Everything was awesome with the room, very central, good interior, it had everything we needed and even more with a fully equipped kitchen, even a dishwasher. It was very very central, although it was a bit loud sometimes because of the people passing by the street we really were happy with our stay. Also, the staff were very polite and helpful before and during our stay.
- Caroline (7/5): Beautiful apartment in central (but very touristy and loud) old town - Check in at the desk was really quick and only a 10 minute walk from the apartment. The location was really central (on a busy and touristy street). On the positive side, you are close to everything, but it is loud at night with drunk tourists and it can be difficult to sleep. It was great for us because we only had 2 days to explore and we could walk everywhere!
The apartment was beautiful and just as pictured. We were two couples and it was really spacious and a great deal. However, it was difficult to tell from the photos where the bathroom was, and whether there was a door between the rooms. There IS in fact a sliding door between the living room and bedroom, but you have to go through the bedroom to get to the only bathroom, so it isn't ideal for sharing with couples. Perfect for one couple or a group of friends! Be aware of checking in ahead of your stay: the reception desk sent us a message after booking to let us know that we had the option to check in online ahead of time to save time once we arrived in Prague. I opted not to as I had a busy week prior to the trip, and I had already confirmed our stay and even asked about parking options. The day before the stay I got a message from their front desk saying that they had canceled our booking because I hadn't checked in online, even though the previous messages had made it seem optional. This caused quite a bit of stress as I had to call and email to make sure that the booking wasn't actually canceled. In the end, the reception desk assured us that everything was fine and it worked out, but this was really unprofessional.
- Anonymous (7/5): Good -
- Diego (8/5): Beautiful apartment but not for kids - Great location, beautiful place. Close to everything Not child friendly, a lot of hazardous stuff for a small kid and not easy for using a stroller (2nd floor and big steps). Only one bathroom.
- Behher (8/5): lovely Appartement - needs to be better managed. - lovely setting and beautifully decorated. the reception is 1km away from the property so you need to make your way through very busy cobbled foot path with luggage and kids - that was poor management not. Except for toilet paper only for 1.5 days though so if you stay longer you have to get your own, nothing else is available such as minimal necessaries.
- Anonymous (7/5): Good -
- Sergiomers (3/5): Poor - nice apartments in the center When booking, they did not indicate that a deposit of 200 euros was required. pick up the keys elsewhere - 10 minutes walk with things, suitcases ... very noisy day and night. cleaning for 7 days would not have been done if we had not written an SMS to them on the 4th day demanding to clean the apartment. as a result, I had to walk an extra hour from 15 to 16 hours while the apartments were cleaned. To hand over the keys again, I had to drag myself with things for 10 minutes to the office. deposit returned within a week
- Viire (9/5): Superb - Great location, roomy apartment. Unpleasant that reception and apartment were too far apart; especially when leaving
- Sjef (5/5): Passable - The place was in the middel of the centre of Praha. We could walk to lot of interesting places. The service of the organization was terrible. They only seemed to be interested in money. We had to pay 200 euro as a bond/warranty. After the bad service I have met, I am curious if they will pay it back or they will "find" something in the apartment. It is a real pity, since the place was nice and the location also.
- Nicola (9/5): Excellent central location, beautiful spacious apartment, good value for money - beautiful spacious property. central location to attractions, restaurants and pubs. good value for money. nothing
- Natasha (9/5): Superb -
- Mai (9/5): Great value of money - Location was exceptional in the middle of the old town, few steps from the clock in a very lovely and living alley. Location was safe. the apartment was huge, stylish, and fully equipped. A big comfortable sofa that can be used for sleeping. Wifi was great. There was an iron and more than one fan. It was a great value of money. No elevator, hard to carry the bags two floors on a narrow wooden stairs. The location of picking and returning the keys was 10 minutes walk away. Also some of the utilities are damaged like the remote control of the TV, or missing like the coffee pot of the coffee machine, and some of the kitchen utilities.
- Juan (9/5): Good place to stay in Prague - Great location, beautiful apartment. Check in and check out process. You have to pick and leave the apartment keys in another place that is about 800 meters away from the apartment.
- Lesley (8/5): Very good - Beds were very comfy. Check in location easy to find with good instructions on how to find nearby apartment. Easy check in check out process. Perfect location. Plenty of linen/towels provided. Odd set up for two couples with the bathroom access being in one bedroom. Needed a spare bin bag but considering the cost well worth the booking! Only one key set available.
- Damian (3/5): Fur coat - no knickers. - This was a large furnished apartment in the Old Town very close to Pragues historical centre. The area is a Mecca for tourists and is therefore on the 'noisy' side of things. Think very loud drunks attempting to sing at three in the morning. When collecting the keys we were told they had 'blocked' 1000 Czech Koruna from my account as some form of 'assurance' that we would arrive. Given this was planned well in advance I was surprised they were allowed to do this. They previously insisted on us paying a 200 euro deposit in the case of damages. They then explained it was quite difficult to find the front door and gave us a photograph so we could find the said property. Unfortunately the photo showed a shop called 'The Best in Prague' which no longer exists. The apartment is on the second floor and only accessible by two flights of exceedingly steep stairs. A challenge when carrying luggage. It was 33 degrees in temperature and the electric fans were not working. When we contacted the office they were aware of this and agreed to send someone out with a fan. Surely if you were aware of this you would have remedied this beforehand. They then insisted we had to return the keys to their office which was no where near our intended direction of travel the next day. They had other keys as the person who delivered the fan had gained access to the apartment in our absence. This company appear to be more concerned with their profits than in the needs of their clients. Avoid at all costs. No pun intended
- Camilla (7/5): Good - We got moved from this flat to another one in another neighborhood.
