Great apartment in a beautiful city

Andrea was the perfect hostess and the apartment was just as pictured--modern, clean, and with all the amenities of home! We spent a week in Prague during Spring Festival and had a wonderful experience using this apartment as our base. Prior to arriving in Prague, Andrea was a great help in answering many questions, from how to get tickets to a Spring Festival concert (online) to the best transportation for a day trip to Cesky Krumlov (bus from Florenc station and highly recommended if you have more than a few days in Prague). The tram was very convenient although we opted to walk on most of our ventures--we enjoyed the exercise of walking uphill every night after a long day of sightseeing and eating and drinking the great Czech food and beer!
We highly recommend the vegetarian restaurant Lehka hlava, and we had great food and beer at a number of traditional pubs (but beware of the "hidden" charges). We had planned to cook more meals at the apartment but found eating out to be quite reasonable. We did buy pastries for breakfast from the bakery just a few doors down from the apartment and other "treats" from the neighborhood grocery store.
Also, it was great to have WiFi in the apartment--we used it to catch up on news from home and to stay in touch with family.
There is a restaurant/bar below the apartment which at times was quite noisy late into the night (we had the windows open). I'm sure this is not an issue during cooler/warmer months when the heat/air conditioning is on and windows would be closed. In any event, it was not serious enough to "spoil" our time.
Thanks, Andrea, for making your apartment available--we would highly recommend it to others!
