All in all a decent stay. During my stay I found this place tended to have a high majority of long term Russian residents rather than tourists. While it was good to meet some locals, it felt a bit more like a hotel environment. The reception ladies are very helpful and the kitchen is well equipped. Unfortunately, cleanliness was not so great. Showers/bathrooms were cleaned daily, but it looked like more of a hosedown clean than a thorough scrub.

Great location and basic, but clean room. Bathrooms were quite dirty and didn't seem to be cleaned for the whole time we were there. Good for one or two nights.

Great place with truly warm and friendly atmosphere in the very centre of the city. 5 min waling from the metro and no more than half an hour from the railway station. Pros: - The place is very clean, even during the winter; - Helpfull staff; - Breakfast included. Cons: - Towels for additional fee (80R = apr 2 euro); - Showers are cold in the evening (morning - ok). Altogether: Great place to stay, I'll choose it again.
