Hotel Stary Pivovar

A tram makes it easy to get to the center of Prague. The rooms were clean, the internet was good, and breakfast was good too.

The room was large and clean, and the breakfast was good. Getting into the city was easy with the transport links. But we hardly slept. There was a door between our room and the one next door, so we heard everything all night. It also had a keyhole you could look through into the other room. I found that before the other guests arrived, thankfully. The shared bathroom window was only partly covered by a curtain, so people on the road could see in while you showered. There was a very loud group staying at the same time. Even in rooms across the building, you could hear every door slam, footstep, and whisper from the hall. With all the hard surfaces, there's no sound insulation. I'd rather stay at the crematorium up the road if sleep is the goal. It's quieter there. Pretty disappointing.

We were given a room on the top floor, with no air conditioning or window shade. The beds were uncomfortable and extremely noisy and squeaky. The toilet was poorly fixed. Breakfast was the one good thing, though even the juice machine didn't dispense juice properly.

Getting into the old town by public transport is easy, so if you're in Prague to see the city, this is a pretty cheap option. The rooms were clean, though the sheets smelled of Domestos. The bathroom door swung open like it had been kicked in by an intervention squad, but it did the job. Beer and shots at the bar were cheap, and breakfast was surprisingly good.
