My trip to Prague - Czech Republic

I was in Prague for 3 days this past December and I had a fairly nice time overall. I was a bit disappointed by the complete lack of snow, but at least it did not rain while I was there.

I found Prague airport to be quite good and efficient, I had not problems with the currency exchange people as they were fairly honest and did not rip me off unlike in Poland. The transportation to the city was also good as there is a van which will take you for CZK 120 ($6) which is quite cheap

I was supposed to stay at the ibis hotel but since they were full they upgraded me to a 4 star hotel next door Hotel century old town and that was good.

Prague unfortunately has too many tourists and that usually really puts me off from visiting a city (that is why you will never see me in Venice or anywhere in Spain)

The city in itself is beautiful and there are plenty of places to see to keep you busy for a few days or more.
