Maria and IstvanEditor's Pick

EuroCheapo Review email this page print this page

The proprietors of this quaint pension are Maria and István themselves, and they are ideal and joyful hosts. Their good vibrations transcend their broken English with room to spare.

The winning couple rents out two rooms in their own apartment as well as two rooms in a flat nearby. The former quarters, near the Museum of Applied Arts, are spic and span. Rooms are filled with homey touches like doilies, framed reproductions and well-maintained antique furniture. The common living space houses a library filled withl travel guides and a large, wooden dining room piece. Room amenities are basic, but all rooms do have television.

Toilet and shower rooms are separate from another, shared exclusively by guests. So never fear—Maria and István have their own private facilities. The decently-sized common kitchen is big enough to prepare a proper feast.

István also shared his incredibly thick sign-in book. The two have hosted more than 6,000 guests since 1985.
