The train station in Cesky Krumlov is quite far from the centre (over 1,5 km to the square), but it is all the way downhill, so you can walk (in the direction of the town square) if you do not have to much luggage. There is also a local bus stop right in front of the train station, you can take a bus from there to the centre. In that case, you should get off at the main bus station 'autobusove nadrazi'.
If you arrive by bus, you should get off at the main bus station (autobusove nadrazi, AN) - usually the terminal station of the bus as well. From there it takes 10 to 15 minutes to walk to our hostel: From the bus station go left on the Objizdkova street, take the first street to the right (Kaplicka), cross a little bridge and go ahead through Horni street. Take the first street (Kostelni) to the left - about 20 m before you would have reached the square (there is a bookshop opposite the street). This will lead you almost in front of our hostel (look left at the end of this short street)!
Please see the map in the 'photos'.

SMOKING ALLOWED ONLY ON THE BALCONY OR GARDEN.

Very cozy pension, nice for couples, especially during the low season, cause you will have some likely the whole house of your own. Nice kitchen for backpack-cooks. The staff was helpful and friendly. Will recommend it to friends. Jinheng, from China ~ 26th Nov 2011

I stayed in a double bed room/apartment, so the lack of a safe in the room was not a problem.This was one room apartment with kitchen and bathroom, very nicely furnished, though adding a wardrobe would help.The place was very clean, brightly painted, with linens and window dressing color coordinated.It was quiet, so fun is not part of that place but that was a BIG plus for me.The internet access was sometimes spotty (mountains effect?).Overall, I would stay there again, and again,...
