Hostel Postel

For me this is still the best hostel I ever been to. Nice, clean, quiet...it's a dream.

Although they confirmed our reservation via e-mail, when we showed up they had in fact given away our room. We not only told them that we might be late, but we called when we knew that we would be late, and by then they had already cancelled our reservation. They proceeded to book us across the street in someone's attic. While they offered to send a cab to pick us up from the train station and pay for it, there was no cab, and so we had to pay for it ourselves. When we went to discuss this with the owner/manager she indeed gave us most of our deposit back and paid for the cab. This was furthermore a frustrating experience because calls cannot be made from Austria to the Czech Republic. The patio seems nice, and the halls and bathrooms are clean, though small.

Five stars for the rooms, the atmosphere, and of course for Gabi, the ever smiling hostess!

This is a great hostel--very quiet and clean. Great shower facilities and clean bathrooms--always good when on the road. Location is good, and we had no problems arranging lodging here when we were in Cesky Krumlov on several occassions. Encountered diverse groups of people here who were very cool. The price here is very fair.
