Hotel U Nádraží

clean and reasonable price. near train station. friendly staff.

Really dirty, the shares bathroom wasn't completely filthy, but there was mold in the shower and the toilet floors looked like a public bathroom. The beds are harder than rocks, and the heater was jammed on full heat so the room was either stifling hot or too cold with the window open. In the morning at 8am, someone started jackhammering the floor above, but we were awake anyway since its impossible to sleep on those beds. The shower ended up making me feel dirtier than when I got in, and the beds had blood stains under the thin sheet.

Taken out of desperation because nothing else was available. With 39€ for three people the price was quite acceptable, however the check-in takes very long and is a bit unfriendly, the rooms are minimalistic, the shared bathroom is quite small (but at least clean) and the walls are thin. No towels could be found anywhere. Location is near the city center which is a plus. But for the price you can usually get better accomodation in Budweis.

The student dorm / penzion /travelers place. Is like an university facility, with coffee machines, shared big kitchens, apartments divided into rooms for two different sets of travelers. Everything works, is just in front of the mall/bus station. Good views from the upper floors, but it is a walk from the historic center (10 minutes).

Good value for money. Tidy and clean place, nothing spectacular. It's bit off the historic centre, but you can take the public transport to get around or walk and within 20 minutes you are there. As it's close to main bus and train transport hub, might come across a dodgy character or two, but it all went hassle free for us that night. WiFi connection was available, bit on the weaker signal side but it's free.
