The apartment itself is small but incredibly cozy. It has everything you could possibly need for a comfortable stay. Despite being in the city center, the apartment has excellent soundproofing, and the noise from the street does not disturb you at all.
Cidália, the host, is wonderful and friendly. She helped with all our questions and issues promptly. Highly recommended!
The apartment is small and very nice.
The location is very comfortable being close to campanha train station where you can take the bus, train, metro to basically anywhere in Portugal.
Being located on a main street it can get very noisy and loud but there are dubble glazed windows to help block that noise.
If you are someone who needs a very quiet enviroment for work purposes or in general maybe the location of this apartment won't suit you, however, if your looking for a place in a nice building, in very good conditions and close to everything you'll need and want (public transportation, supermarket, cafe's, restaurant, short driving distance to anywhere in the city, walking distance to city center) this place will be a very good choice for you.
Great experience!
Then if you would like a longer story:
I arrived in Prague with my young son, alone, due to circumstances beyond our control (my husband arrive a few days later) I was nervous, scared and rather overwhelmed at the time. I was met by Lukas, he gave me a comforting hug and assisted with all (an immigration so LOTS) our luggage! All while my son played with his two amazing kids. I felt welcomed and safe.
We LOVED our apartment. It was super cozy, had everything we needed and more, plus Angie told us to let her know if there is anything else we might need. We love the balcony, with windows opening up so you can feel the breeze coming through.
We found the WiFI to be more than adequate - I work from home and had no break or slowness in the flow of working at all. Whilst working, often we would be streaming Netflix for my son to watch and we would be streaming our own grown-up programmes plus WA family/friends video calls - no buffering or problems.
We loved our apartment so much - we extended and have therefore stayed over a year here. Yes the bedroom window is above the main apartment entrance - BUT not once were we disturbed or our sleep broken by noises - the rooms are pretty much insulated. The only "noise" we heard was someone playing piano above us - this was a "noise" we thoroughly enjoyed - it was like having a piano concert right in our home and we longed for more!
I do thorough research before entering in any agreement so based on that I would like to respond to the comments left by another person on a previous stay. In both the booking process and the actual contract it is clearly stated that if you are staying for a longer period of time you will receive a discount on the rate paid - I feel that when breaking that contractual term you can not possibly expect not to pay the difference as you are getting a discounted rate based on your length of stay.
Regarding the rent: Prague is not cheap! It is one of the most expensive cities rent-wise and at the end of the day you will pay for what you get.
I feel that when we rented this apartment we not only paid for a roof over our heads, but for the invaluable and priceless kindness we received from our landlords. Lukas and Angie made us feel welcome, they assisted and helped us with legalities, documents, translating, traditions and a 100 other things - which you just can not put a price on - for this we will be forever thankful to people who made our immigration to a new country a seamless and amazing experience. So in a long nutshell - if it is available: Look NO further - BOOK BOOK BOOK!
Alessandra is really amazing host, very easy to communicate with, always making sure everything is okay.
