Nadia and Cliff were very nice. They stayed up late to receive us at mid night. The hotel was safe, peaceful. Though the location wasn't that great but it was close to the city center. For sure, it was a good deal for the price.

Cliff very welcoming. Bathrooms nice and clean but room could have used a good clean. Neighbourhood a bit sleazy at night. Reasonable cost.

A great place to stay if you want something a bit quieter, but still close to the city center. The main area is only two stops away from a tram stop located just around the corner.

Could not find the place, then they moved us to another hostel. It ended up being an upgrade to a huge apartment that was well located. No cleaning staff ever came.

bad experience here. one of us got bites from the bed and the other bed was broken. the owner came into our room with a lit cigarette in his mouth. they also gave us trouble about the rates due to a mistake on hostelworld. not the worst guesthouse but better places can be found.

'Uncle Cliffy' was great! He upgraded my room to include a private bath, which was nice. He also had to good advice about the city and restaurants in the area. I would definitely recommend staying here!

Cliff and Nadia are wonderful! Their guesthouse has a warmth and friendliness that you wouldn't find at a big hotel and the peace and quiet that you wouldn't have at a hostel. You can't beat the price either. You can get to the center of Prague in about four tram stops so it was close to...

I felt like I was at home here. Absolutly the best location in Zizkov, the tram stop is literally right outside the door. The owners are amzing and we stayed up talking and drinking Becherovka with them one night. Radios in all the rooms was my favorite. Oldies Radio 103.7 is the best station in the world. The view outside our window was a space between the buildings which was just all trees and greenery... so peaceful. I could go on...close

I am a frequent flyer to Prague and this place has exactly all I need for just slightly more than a large dorm bed anywhere else in the city, and I was in a twin room! Will be staying here definitely on my future visits, but thats if there only is vacancies, if the secret fo this little gem gets out. (Perhaps I should'nt say anymore.)close

In general a very nice place to stay. But the beds were so hard, that my back hurt next morning. That may not be a problem for some, but for others it might.

We love Cliff and Nadia, great guesthouse, very cute and nice. They had good recommendations about where to go and what to see, we'd definitely come back. It was close enough downtown to be convenient but far enough to not be super touristy.

Cliff and Nadia are wonderful. I think Cliff is a bit of a madman at times but he is a lot of fun to be around. Their guesthouse is clean and very reasonably priced for Prague. The tram is just down the street, so it is quick and easy to get to downtown, but since Zizkov has more bars per kilometer than anywhere else in Europe, you don't really need to leave the neighborhood to find entertainment. We wouldn't stay anywhere else in Prague, can't wait to visit again.close

I don`t recommend that place.close

Nadia and Cliff are wonderful hosts. They provide a great place that is comfortable and affordable. The location is walking distance to almost everything. If you dont want to walk the tram is only 75m away. The place is clean and cozy and we would recommend it to everyone of all ages.

In our 6 week trek through Europe we found this guesthouse to be our favorite. Jaroslav is awesome, very attentive and helpful, the rooms are immaculate and its an easy walk to everything you'll need. If you're looking for a party hostel scence, this isn't it, but it offers so much more.

2min away to the tram by walking, which is a 5 min ride to old town. Cliff is a British and Diana is local. You can be taken from stations if you just ask for it. They are familiar and they even borrow us some crown(Ch currency) for the start. If you are looking for a place for just to sleep,...
