Stayed five nights in September in one of the two attic rooms, those with funny beams. The pros of these particular rooms are:
- unique old building charm with wooden beams all around, sloped ceilings etc.
- cheaper than the rest of the rooms
- probably more quiet as no one gets to stomp on your head except pigeons
But these come with their cons:
- climb the stairs to the fourth floor every time you go to your room
- bang your head on the sloped ceiling every time you use the toilet
- no way to take a decent stand-up shower
- no reliable wifi in the top floor. I was only able to get the hotel's wifi standing up next to the door or sometimes I could get some other free wifi network (unrelated to the hotel) from the bed. I complained on the first day but nothing could be done. I asked the guests in the room in front of ours and they had the same problem.
Don't look forward to the free room upgrade offered: with only 8 rooms in the hotel and the hotel being quite popular there's next to no chance you get a better room than the one you paid for.
Otherwise everything was just perfect - the location, the furniture, the cleanness, the breakfasts. The room had a safe, a minibar, a teapot with a supply of teabags/instant coffee, a TV and even a music center. Booked both airport transfers with the hotel - very convenient and reasonably priced.
Room Tip: If you're taller than 180-185 cm don't even think of a cheaper attic room.

Dear Andrey,
thank you very much for taking your time to share the experience of your stay and for your positive comments. I regret the room did not meet your expectations - it is a very favourite room due to its atmosphere and cosiness. I do understand lower and sloped ceiling might be a problem for tall people - we should probably add the particular room height to our online detailed room description as the photogallery and the description itself may not be enough.
We were not able to upgrade you to a better room because we were full. I would like to ensure you that everybody who books good luck room has a fair chance of upgrade, it actually is quite high, as we have more deluxe rooms then doubles, just this time unfortunately was not available. As our hotel is situated in the old historical house with considerably thick walls, we sometimes encounter instability of the wireless internet. We know about this problem and we do our best to fix it to enable flawless wifi connection everywhere in the hotel as of course LAN is not suitable for all devices.
Thank you for your stay in our hotel, we believe you enjoyed it and will be happy to welcome you next time.
Yours Sincerely,
Marketa Slaba - receptionist
