I was supposed to be visiting with friends from the 20th to the 24 of March, But now they have left me dead in the water and backed out entirely on me. and I will have to play catch up and meet them in Krakow on the 25.
I am trying to be a trooper , and I know that I can do this, but I have to admit I am slightly overwhelmed. I am very much curious about the city. I know I have to make my own reservations and such, and can not get a straight answer on If I make a reservation and the hostel does not have me pay anything, will I still have a room when I get there? Are they any suggestions on hostels that have single rooms? or less expensive but bug free hotels?
So now that my translator is not coming with me, other than my list of important words i.e. help, police, bathroom, and menu please. is there anything else I should work on?
As for sightseeing I have to admit, old buildings are nice and I will probably wander into a museum or two, but I am really more so interested in the people. Are there good cafes out from the center of the city that I can go to?

Try one of these hostels.
Ms. Sophie%26#39;s or Czech Inn.

You will not have a problem with translation in the center or at these hostels.
..
One suggestion is to take the tram to the top of the hill to see Prague Castle and then leisurely walk down and then make your away across Charles Bridge

Hi
Very rarely during our travels have we ever paid in advance for accommodation and our rooms have always been ready when we have arrived. So don%26#39;t worry about the reliability aspect.
I think if you are young then a hostel is probably the best type of accommodation for you, there are bound to be others staying there who you can pal up with. Try checking out some of the hostel reviews on this site.
Prague is a wonderful walking city, safe (except for pickpockets) and fairly compact. You can spend half a day just wandering round the castle and another full one in the Old Town, and that%26#39;s without going into any museums etc.
Check out the In Your Pocket guide, you can get a free download, for out of the centre cafes and bars.
Good luck with your trip.

I would have no problem staying in Prague on my own.

I%26#39;ve spent over a month in Prague by myself and have loved every minute of it.
Most people speak English in places where you would generally find yourself; so I wouldn%26#39;t worry too much about the language barrier.
And in some of the clubs (you%26#39;re 25; so I figure you%26#39;ll want to hit some of them), you%26#39;ll find yourself more among Americans and Brits than you will natives!
