A light and cozy studio apartment is waiting for you! The apartment is in a historical building located in a beautiful area of Prague – Vinohrady. This area was built in XIX - early XX c.c. and belongs to the widened center of the city (1.5 km, or less than a mile far from the Wenceslas square). We used to live here ourselves, but now our friends and family stay here occasionally.

The apartment is high ceilinged (3.4 m, or 11.1 ft) and has a wide bay window, so you can even feel how spacious and light it is! Besides, the bay window creates a special, romantic atmosphere.
It is on the 3rd floor (on the 4th if you count the ground floor). There is no elevator.

About three years ago, we had the apartment completely redone. The furniture and home appliances are all new, and the apartment is clean and well attended.


What we have in the apartment:
- completely equipped kitchen,
- PC,
- Internet access,
- audio system,
- hairdryer,
- iron and an ironing board,
- folding clothes dryer,
- walk-in shower in the bathroom,
- washing machine.

Kitchen
The kitchen and the living room are combined in one (a studio apartment).
In the kitchen there are:
- big fridge with a deep-freeze compartment,
- microwave,
- gas stove with an electrical oven,
- toaster,
- electric kettle,
- various tableware, saucepans and a frying pan.

Sleeping accommodation:
- 2 mattresses on a bedroom storey, 200х90 cm (6.6x3 ft) each;
- 1 convertible couch down in the living- room, dimensions in an unfolded state: 200х160 cm (6.6x5.2 ft);


The apartment can accommodate 1-4 people, including kids (sorry, not more).
There is a specially constructed bedroom storey over the kitchen. The height of the ceiling is 1.4 m (or 4.6 ft) above the storey, and 2 m (or 6.6 ft) under the storey.

Internet
High-speed and constantly available Internet with no breaks or limitations of downloading: both cable and Wi-Fi.

Smoking
You can’t smoke in the apartment. For smoking, there is a balcony in the stairwell.

Parking
Free parking is 200 m (0.1 mile) away. The building is located in an area were parking lots are either to be paid for, or only meant for residents of the neighborhood. Near the building, there is a parking lot equipped with a parking slot machine, where you can park your car from 8 a.m. until 6 p.m. for 40 korunas (through up to 6 hours). The rest of the time and on weekends it's free. An area with free parking begins 200 m away.
