The hotel location is superb, few min walk to old town square. Other than that this hostel is terrible. I give 1 out of 10. The water in shower room stop every 5 sec and u have to push the knob again and again until u finish shower. shower room not inside the room, it's outside of the room.

Next, when u check in, they give u a piece of paper indicated all the password. U need to press all this different digits to enter the hostel, to enter your room, and to open your locker. If u are middle age or age above 50's, do not book this hostel. 

At night, it will be very noisy from the pub below the hostel. They are loud until 3am at least.

The bed in my room very cracky, like every time people above me moving, the bed will make so much sound. The room also in a bad condition. 

If you have more budget for your trip, do check other options

Bad experience at Best Spot Hostel

Serves its purpose and some more. Couldn't have asked for a better location being in the centre of the Old Town, amongst the beautiful hustle & bustle that is Prague. Stayed in an 8-man room which was suffice; clean beds and a spacious room. The lockers were somewhat dubious (i.e. loose and wobbly), however this caused us little issue. The reception was helpful (-ish) and payment was smooth. Got loud at times outside the room but it is a Youth Hostel after all so it is unlikely you will get silence, no matter in which city you book. Overall, a pleasant stay and would go again just for the amazing location.

Amazing location and safe stay

The hostel is a few minutes away from the Astronomical Clock, that's a big plus! 

Rooms were alright (lockers, fan, curtains on the bed) but the bathroom was a bit more challenging. I still had a very nice time there and I would totally recommend this hostel

Perfect location, good value for money!

When we arrived check in was okay. We were given 3 different numbers to remember on a sheet of paper. One for the front door, one for our room and one for our locker. This could have been a bit more convenient with key cards for the room as it was a 8 digit number to remember! When we got in the room the beds were clean and had curtains for privacy which were great. The beds were really creaky and loud so if you needed to get up at night it woke people up it was so loud! It made me feel like I was gonna fall through. When you first get into the room you aren’t given a bed number you just pick and choose what is available so me and my partner ended up at opposite ends of the room. One of the beds we were given didn’t have a plug as it was ripped from the wall. When we went down to the reception they did nothing to resolve this for us and suggested we charge all of our valuables overnight in the lounge or reception which obviously we weren’t comfortable with. Thankfully we were travelling together so used the one plug in the other bed to charge all of our things. But if you were travelling solo I don’t know what you would do! The receptionist seemed very unequipped to deal with an issue and seemed quite inexperienced. The toilets were a walk down the hall from our room and were cleaned regularly! The showers were not great as they kept turning off after 30 seconds or so and there was nowhere to put your clothes so it was a bit of a struggle to shower. The kitchen was alright as it had a kettle and a stove and was a decent size. Our stay was alright overall. The location was great as it was in the old town. I would recommend this hostel if they change the beds so they aren’t so creaky and the staff had a bit more experience!

My experience at Best Spot Hostel in Prague

DO NOT STAY HERE. The front desk clerk broke into our room and was standing in the middle watching me and seven of my 21 year old girl friends sleep, with the door shut behind him. They refused to refund us. The pictures also are not accurate, it is filthy and eerie. Have never left a review about a place but please do not stay here. We still do not know what his intentions were.

TERRIBLE. NOT SAFE

Booked and paid a deposit for x2 nights  for 13 people on line well in advance of our stay only to be told when we arrived the hostel had changed ownership and our booking did not exist and there were no rooms available, this did change to us being offered the chance to pay again for x1 night at a “discounted rate” (half price) if we wanted it, great way to treat guests who had “pre-booked”. Offer swiftly declined by us as the power of Google found us an apartment in a better cleaner location for less money. Word of advice look elsewhere, unless you’re happy being ripped off.

Best spot definitely not

Overall bad:
-strange hairs on pillow
-bed base came loose
-filthy floor
-foam mattress under which you could feel the bed base
-filthy and very small toilet room
-not that much privacy in shower room
-lots of noise at night
-staff couldn't even recommend where to visit a doctor
-elevator doesn't go entirely up and down so you need to pull your luggage up the stairs

The only good thing is the location which is right in the city center.

Don't go there!

The only positive thing we could say is that it was super central but other than that it was super disgusting, it smelled like pee both days, the beds from the people leaving weren’t done until really late at night and I really doubt they were nice cleaned as well as the showers. We know the price was cheap but the only thing we asked was cleanliness and you couldn’t offer that. We ended up going out both nights just to skip sleeping there  

really bad

Decently clean and very central, near a lot of the public transportation, but EXTREMELY loud street!!! Met some great people there though!
Helpful but not very friendly staff.
Lockers in the rooms, bedding included.

Good for the price…

It was an "ok stay" in a 6-bed room with I would say enough room to "move around", and also nicely available were something like a countertop right outside the room (to get some work done) & a small bench at the common area near the staircase.  And so, the "only downsides" about this place are its toilets & bathrooms (not together but individual toilets & bathrooms) which are like "the smallest" of those I've seen in many places I've stayed.

But yes, the best part of staying at this place is all in its name which yes is the "best spot" in the Old Town, specifically near the "main street" of the Old Town which likely is its most vibrant part with plenty of all types of commercial establishments big & small including actually some "quaint-looking" row of outdoor vendors at just a very short walk from this place (but the 2 places that mattered to me most being the McDonald's & the Chinese restaurant both at just about a 5-minute walk to the left after coming down the stairs from this place).
