Not very central, but transit was close and convenient. The ladies were friendly and helpful. Very clean bathrooms.

The hostel was located nicely, near the river and surrounded by a golf course. The hostel is ran by four women, but it doesn't look that way. It's all clean and tidy, but the rooms are cheaply desinged and don't give a comfortable feeling. Despite this, the bathrooms are well equipped and very clean. The breakfast is satsfing, but not so various. The hostel is very suited for large groups whom like to party. The hostel itself is quite secure but the parking, is rather not. It is a hostel that does give for what you pay.

The additional breakfast items (for small extra cost) were good, French toast mmmm! Cheap drinks sold there were good, and the 30 mins of free Internet time per person was handy. They weren't uptight about being paid immediately or anything, and they sell tram tickets into town too. Still not quite sure why everyone else seems to fall in love with this place though, as it's quite far from town and the walk from the tram stop is quite scary at night. There was only a net curtain in our room, too, which means you're woken up by light every morning whether you want to be or not!

Best hostel that I stayed in, while I was in Europe. The first thing that I noticed walking in was the friendliness, and cheerful nature of the staff. Some people may rate the location lower because it's not downtown but, I think it's in the perfect location. No more than a 20 min tram ride into the old town. It's on the river. You can rent a kayak or canoe. if you are ambitious enough, you could walk to the castle in 90 min and its a beautiful view.

Very quiet and peaceful in hostel. I had a four bed room to myself! Some noise from nearby roads and river. A long way from the city centre - but worth the trip.

They did my laundry for free because I was staying for four nights and made delicious dinner for about five or six bucks.

I have traveled the world and this is by far the best hostel I've ever stayed in! The staff is incredibly kind and helpful and the facilities are spotless. The complimentary breakfasts are three course meals and they always have plenty of beer for sale on site! The rooms and beds are comfortable and spacious. They have everything you could possibly need for travel including a laundry service. I can not express in words how amazing the ladies of the Boathouse hostel are. I felt more at home there than I do in my own house! If I moved to Prague I would live there!

Vera, Helena and Natasha were the best feature of this hostel. They were fabulous! Anything that you needed they could help you with. When we arrived we were feeling under the weather, but with their care we left feeeling great and ready to face the rest of our trip. The Boathouse was a very relaxing stay and good value for travellers.

Great location - a bit outside of the city, surrounded by tennis courts, golf courses and possibility to rent kayaks in the same building. At the same time, 15 minute tram-ride to the center. Nice, friendly staff, clean hostel. Would highly recommend!

i miss it already...staff are so wonderful, its a bit out of town, but with a three day tram pass to come and go we had no problems at all. felt safe coming and going too, police on trams most of time. its very quiet, breakfast is simple and FREE and they are great about the internet (you get half hour free..but always seems like they are not watching the clock). i totally recommend it...look for the really hard to see sings to find it, its a walk down the road past some golf courses to get to it.
