Unfortunately, we booked on the only day of our stay in which it was raining, so the indoors was a little crammed. But our poor planning doesn’t constitute a negative review, we will just make sure to check the weather next time😆 The staff are all very friendly and accommodating also. Definitely a must for anyone visiting Prague!”
