The train trip to Cesky Krumlov was the worst we ever took. It took 3 legs. The second leg was 4 hours on a bumpy, jerky, 2nd class only train. It is probably the first time I ever felt train sick. Luckily we could open the window to get some air. The last leg was only about an hur but it was also terrible. No more than a glorified bus chugging along.
Then we arrived at our destination. A run down old station and not a soul in sight. No Taxis, nothing. Luckily I had written down the walking directions to town. We walked very steep downhill on cobblestones and then uphill still on more cobble stones.
Once we found our hote it looked much better. The hotel is an ancient, old building. Very charming, nice size rooms, good beds. Breakfast very good with a decent size bathroom and a large shower which is very unusual in Europe.
The town is a lovely surprise, a hidden gem.
