Michelin Guide
"Named after a local Czech writer, whose poems decorate the walls. Cosy orange and brown coloured bedrooms in the original l 4C building; more modern rooms in the newer building. Relax on..."

The rooms in the older building are comfortable but a little plain, so be sure to ask for one with a view of Nerudova street.
