Great price, very cheap! The hostel had computers, which was nice. When I arrived, there was a definite smell from the kitchen--it was a bit dirty. And there weren't very many bathrooms. Overall, it was an average place, conditions that were to be expected considering it's a hostel.

I have stayed in Sokolska Hostel for 4 nights on christmas days with another 9 of my friends. The cost was pretty cheap and the hostel was really good. There was a common room where all chilled and used free internet. We also used the kitchen to make breakfast which was always clean. The location of the Hostel was the best thing. It is 15mins walk to the city center. It was close to everything. When I visit Prague again I will sure reserve again in Sokolska Hostel

The hostel was clean and fine. The ambiance is not the best but it is ok. There is a kitchen and a room with 2 computers, which is very nice. The hostel is not big and there is not a lot of people, depends what you are searching for. It is like 15 min. walking from the old town square, less than 10 mins to the train station. the location is good and 2 seconds from the metro station. I liked my stay there, but I would have like to have a little more ambiance and fun in the hostel!!

It's a good hostel if all you want is a place to sleep. It's not so clean, but it has hot water in the showers. They also give you a little towel. It's really close to the metro station, that takes you to all the important places, so the location is excellent.

It has a very good location, and is a good value for the money but don't expect too much since is a very cheap hostel...perhaps, is clean and the beds were very good, and I felt very comfortable!

For a cheap hostel this is one of the best. Right in the centre of town, the staff are very helpful and welcoming, the beds aren't that bad at all and the the whole place is clean due to the cleaner's daily rounds. The security isn't the best as people tend to leave the dorm doors open (no fault of the hostel itself) but there are free safety security boxes for valuables. I would definitely recommend this hostel

Not the ideal hostel if you're looking to party, however we only stayed on night and as we'd had a big night it was the ideal place for us to have a break and recover. Free internet and good location, however cleanliness is a bit below par. There are better places to stay but you may have to compromise on your location!

Staff wasn't friendly, the rooms was relatively clear. Location is very good, the downtown is 10 minutes far on foot, but we've slept by opened windows and the street was too noisy.

The hostel is situated fantastically. You can go on foot to Wenzelssquare and are right in the city. Everything else is easily achievable via Metro - station just around the corner. The bath room could have been a little bit cleaner but all in all I have had a wonderful stay.
