"Major disappointment – the room did not match the booking, the heating did not work, and there was no hot water
We booked an “Exclusive Double Room” for one night through Expedia, for 2 people, explicitly listed in the description as having “1 Double Bed.” The room description also listed “heating” as one of the amenities. Based on the photos, it was supposed to be one of the stylish rooms with a double bed, a distinctive atmosphere, and vintage furnishings.
In reality, we were given a completely different room: a sterile-looking triple room with plain white walls, no decorations or character whatsoever, and three separate single beds. Two of the beds were simply pushed together, with a visible gap between the mattresses (so, not a double bed), and there was a third bed in the room as well. Just like on the pushed-together beds, there was also a towel and toiletries placed on the third bed, as if the room had actually been prepared for three people. This does not match the description “1 Double Bed” or the photos presented during booking. Instead of a stylish “exclusive double room,” we got what felt more like a basic triple/family room.
Another problem came up in the evening. The room was cold and the radiators were not heating at all. There was no heating control in the room; it appeared to be a central heating system. When we called the hotel contact number, we were told that “nothing could be done” about the heating. We were not offered a portable heater or even extra "
"We had a lovely stay at U Prejzku. The apartment is charming, with large bedrooms and unique vintage decor, including old sewing machines and weighing scales, which really adds character. The property was very warm, making clothes dry easily, and the garden is fantastic for kids— I imagine it's absolutely stunning in summer with pool access.
Cleanliness was generally good, though the washing machine and shower had black stains that wouldn’t wipe off, and the kitchen door frame seal was loose and swinging. The sofa is worn and uncomfortable, and the toaster could do with replacing. The TV is Czech language only; a smart TV with apps like YouTube or Netflix would be a great addition for international guests.
Supplies such as washing-up liquid, cloths, and toilet paper were provided, which was appreciated, and parking was available for our hire. The property felt safe, with both the main and apartment doors locked, and keys provided to residents.
Location is excellent—about 45 minutes to central Prague, very easy to visit Prague Zoo, and local trains run every 30 minutes if needed. Staff were incredibly warm, welcoming, gave us a tour on arrival, and were very responsive via the app whenever we had questions or needed confirmation. Overall, a lovely apartment with character, great rooms, brilliant outdoor space, and friendly service, though some amenities could use updating."
"Everything and everyone at this hotel was great, but location is in the middle of nowhere. If you are passing through, this is a great place to stay!!"
