I had a lovely stay at this boutique hotel, filled with charm and character. The stained glass windows and painted ceilings added a unique touch to my experience. The breakfast options were outstanding and varied each day. However, during my visit, I faced a few hiccups with the lift and air conditioning in my room. Overall, I would recommend this place for its cozy atmosphere and proximity to Prague Castle, but be mindful of the heat if you're staying up high without A/C.
