Ubytovna Novovysočanská

Of course, one didn't expect anything extra for the money. Logical. On the other hand, I did not expect something like this to be possible in the 21st century. Some time ago we went to a concert with a friend in Prague and it was about two nights, just sleeping, so we were not looking for anything extra. The photos on the website of this hostel are absolutely misleading, which of course we could not guess. Already at the door, where a group of strange people stood, where one was not sure whether they would not take you at night or worse - we were not subject to a bit of shock from the overall appearance of the hostel. Even so, we gathered our courage and stepped inside. The existences that roamed the corridors were like a bad movie. Room a complete disaster. I've never seen anything like it in my life. Dirty beds, damaged windows, loose doors that could only be locked with real effort. A billion dead insects in a fluorescent lamp on the ceiling, so the light came from her really hard. Under the windows outside a regular landfill. In the corridors there was a riot from the accommodated guests. The socials smelled of mold and stale, going to the bathroom would probably be suicide. In short, something absolutely appalling. We spent about 30 minutes everywhere in this hostel before we arranged accommodation elsewhere. But it was the craziest 30 minutes of my life. Even today, they try to shock me when I remember it. Of course, we did not get the money we paid for "accommodation" back. The lady at the "reception" still wondered why we were leaving. Honestly, the money was completely stolen from me, we were glad we got out of here. In any case, it is absolutely unbelievable that the hygiene or the CTIA has not closed it there yet.

The nightmare of the whole area, which is handled almost every day by riot service, including the police.

At that price I can not complain (that is, to a broken wifi) For some 260Kč night I got my own room with a double bed, wardrobe and sofa table, I think it's not bad. I see as a lack of it, that I did not have my blinds and shone a light into the room of the station. Furthermore, from the hallway was smoked and hear every step and voice. People, however, abide by curfews. There were mainly Czechs and Ukrainians. Overall, I'm happy for the money.

I especially like the proximity to the public transport bus 109 and 136, which takes me a few minutes to the subway. Also, the total price is for longer accommodation (over 14 days). The hostel is set in a quiet environment. Cons: very thin partitions between the rooms, so you can hear what's going on in the other rooms, and if you don't have windows to the street, you have under the windows a train station where they have the most to work hard at night.

If I leave the humus there that can be expected for the money, the receptionist was nice and decent 😉
