We arrived in Prague November 9th and checked in. We paid (in cash) the rest of our room fee being that a percentage was charged when booking. The ¨receptionist´´ noted our passport numbers and the fact that we paid in a NOTEBOOK. We left our bags in a room with four beds, locked the door and went for a walk around the city. We came back a couple of hours later, UNLOCKED the door clothes were everywhere, my entire bag with an ipod, cellphone, clothes and toiletries was gone, one of my friend´s ipod and sunglasses was missing, and my other friend´s jewlery and phone charger was gone. We called the hostel´s emergency number as there is no one there after a certain time and they refused to come. We called the police and being that they didn´t speak english we had someone from the hostel talk to them on the phone. We had no idea what was said but were told to come back in the morning being that we were not planning on staying there. We came back in the morning and they gave us HALF of 1 night (two were paid for). UNSAFE, NOT CLEAN, UNHELPFUL STAFF..

Stayed here for 3 nights for a stag do. I'd already been to Prague before so knew what to expect, as most budget accomodation in Prague is very crap compared to the rest of europe. This accomodation is very basic, just a room with a bed in. The location is very central, 1 min walk from town centre, plus there is a 24hr bar below the hostel! I've found most people from Prague very rude and miserable, but the staff here we're friendly and helpful which made a change. It's fairly cheap, but they did charge us some sort of 'tax' when we got there so it cost about 15% more than advertised. For a stag do this was perfect, but if you wanted peace and quiet don't stay here! Beer is cheap and is great! any questions, please e-mail me, i know a bit about Prague & nightlife etc: uk_rnr_star@yahoo.co.uk

The Condor does not provide a good first impression, as it is in a tired old building and there is no real reception desk. It all looks very amateur. Some of the rooms' doors open directly onto the reception area and we could see people sleeping, so we were a bit worried about the privacy!

Although we had booked a twin room with ensuite we were actually given the apartment around the corner. At first we were a bit worried about this, but after we had a look we were glad that we were there rather than in the main part of Condor.

The apartment was basic but clean and very convenient. A bit more attention to detail would have been appreciated, e.g. there were no bedside lights or bedside tables, although there was a microwave, fridge, double hot-plate and washing-machine, so it was quite self-contained. A bathmat would also have been nice, but you don't expect much in these places - although it wasn't particularly cheap!

The last thing that I would like to mention is that the hot-water system was not switched on when we arrived and we were not told. Of course, we didn't realise this for a few hours and were therefore forced to have cold showers on the first night. But once we turned it on and gave it time to heat up, it worked fine and the shower was OK. Very clean.

All-in-all I would say that the apartment (which I think goes by the name Condor 2) is satisfactory, but I'm sure you could do better both in price and value. The location is excellent though, just around the corner from the Old Town Square.

disappointed with the tiny box of a room, door opening straight out on to a tiny reception. Noisy as the place on the entire floor converted into box rooms and so be prepared to wear ear plugs. Was glad i was only staying one night. Not exactly the cheapest of hostels either, there are better hostels in Prague than this one.
