The location was unbeatable, right by the charles bridge. This made exploring so convenient. the breakfast buffet had a wide variety of options and fresh ingredients. my room included a seating area, it was nice to relax there after a long day. the staff arranged a private car to the airport. This removed so much stress.
the in-room safe was a bit small, it barely fit my laptop and a few documents.
