The apartment

The trip to the apartment was not a problem: we saw a bunch of the outskirts of Prague (and some areas that I was glad we weren't living in because they had a ton of graffiti and who knows what it is like at night - every town has to have those areas).
We get to our place, meet the real estate dude (David), who speaks English pretty well! The posting we saw about the apartment was that it was a third floor walk-up and the pictures showed it had a futon in the kitchen/living room. Alas, we entered a double wooden doors to get into the apartment (it's on a semi-busy street) then walked up one flight of stairs, to where David opened the door. The apartment has a toilet and sink on the left (in a room) when you first walk in. Then you walk into the kitchen (2 stove-tops, a microwave, small fridge, washing machine and cabinets (4 place settings - all from Ikea). There is also a table with 4 chairs, a book-shelf type item and a desk. Then, across from the washing machine, there is a door, which you open to find a shower and sink. The bedroom has a European style double bed (one frame with 2 mattresses), a leather love-seat, tv, dresser, table and 2 night stands. Interestingly, there is a button on the wall for the door (inside the wall, between the bedroom and the other living area) to open and close. Very cool - gotta love technology!!
Nevertheless, Maciej and I did not feel the need to say anything about how this apartment was not the one that was shown to us online. Couldn't deal with any more issues. The only issue we foresee is if someone/ones come to visit, there isn't an extra bed/futon. I must say though, the couch is mighty comfy.
We turned on the television, which half the channels are in German (good thing Karen can still understand a decent amount - and with pictures it makes it even better), a few are in Czech (that makes sense, right?), 2-3 are in English, and the rest are channels are like pay-per-view (and are all porn stations).
Overall, the apartment is in a good location. It's located near multiple metro and tram stations. There are 2-3 bakeries within a few blocks! A convenient-type store (run by Czech speaking Asians) is on the block, where we can buy any essentials and they have some great looking produce! Walking to restaurants and stores is close as well. There is also a highly recommended micro-brewery a 5-10 minute walk away! woohoo!
