Century Old Town Prague - MGallery Collection
The room was ready early, and the staff allowed us in early so we could wander out into the city earlier than expected. The facility is lovely, elegantly appointed. The room was smaller than expected, which is typical of European size rooms. It was clean and well appointed with modern decor.
