- 2 Ubytovna Hoby J.P.M. Plus. Live the communist experience! This 8-floor house was built during the communist era between 1945 and 1990. Outside it looks originally grey and the rooms have still the same furniture of that time. The price for a private room is just 259 Kč and 302 Kč for a better looking one. The fridge and a common old era kitchen can be used. The windows of the room are new so it's warm during winter.
