Have you ever booked some place and at the end they scammed you for your money?
I am not talking about shaking your hand with someone and agreeing on a place to stay.
I know people who were scammed on reliable sites, such as Booking. Well, luckily I had a better experience in Czechia. As I mentioned in my previous blogs, I visited Jeseniky and it was amazing. You can read more about it. Anyhow the booking experience was icing on the cake. We booked a place whose price was cheaper than my clothes from NewYorker😆 We only had to pay around 50 euros for 2 nights for 2 people. Seems relatively cheap, but wait it gets better😁
The fist cookie was definitely the lady, but I spent a whole blog about it and you can read more about it there😉The second and the biggest surprise was definitely the house, why....well we had the whole place for ourselves. I am not talking about a small studio apartment, I am talking about a big cottage house with numerous apartments. We were there just at the right time, after winter (there is a ski resort near) and before summer, so we were kind of lucky.
The strategic location of this place is amazing, it was 10 minutes away from the train station, 5 minutes away from shops, surrounded by necessary infrastructure, and the best thing...in the middle of the National Park. We were able to walk to all of the places, but if you want to explore a bit more...the Polish border is just a few kilometers away😁
Back to the accommodation, the parking is available next to the building, so you won't find any problem with parking. The inside is a real treat of the place. The kitchen is in the communal usage (but not if you are alone😆), the pans, stove, fridge, and freezer are there, so you don't need anything with you. They also have a dining hall with about 10 tables, so you can feel at home. For all the coffee lovers, there is a coffee machine, but you need to pay 20 crows for usage (basically nothing), the same goes for tea.
Next to the dining hall, they have a communal room, where there is a table tennis table and darts, so you are not bored if you don't like the countryside😂There is even a projector....a perfect place to have a romantic date😏 In the second floor there are many rooms, their simplistic design makes the whole experience really authentic. You are provided with the bed, armchair and a nightstand... everything you need. There are also communal bathrooms, separated for ladies and gentlemen, which include nice equipment (showers, driers, toilets, etc.) and are extremely clean, which was really nice. If you want to be a bit fancier you can also rent an apartment on the third floor, but I wasn't inside, so I cannot really judge its quality.
If you want to visit and stay in this place, you can find it on booking (U Ztraceného potoka). I highly recommend it and this showed me that traveling in Czechia can be fun, cheap, and unexpectedly amazing. I will quickly give you an overlook so it is easier for you to decide.
