  : The location is ok, I did not feel unsafe although one could say the surroundings look a bit suspicious. There is a tv sitting area in a hallway, a kitchen, 2 big fridges, an electric kettle, iron and stuff, decent amount of toilets, sinks and showers so there was no queue to any of them ever, hot water available at all times, regular towel included, paper towels and soap in the bathroom and the staff was cleaning there every day. Decent price for Moscow standards I guess, and the bed was fairly comfortable. Nothing got stolen, even though we left the luggage for a few hours after the check-out.
  : The staff did not speak English. If I were by myself, I would have no idea what was going on. The room was for 4 people but very small and the only window was not opening so at night the air supply was... poor. Not to mention the smell. The bed was super squeaky and the only place for the clothes seemed to be the suitcase lying on the floor. I was in need for something to drink at night but there was no tea, no sugar in the kitchen, just 6 different packs of salt... Why? There was a vending machine, but with no key pad, no place to put money in. There were prices, but I can only assume that during the day, when the reception is actually open, you can ask for something and someone will go there with a key and hand you whatever you'd like to purchase. If of course you speak the language. Only cash accepted, both for stay and vending machine. Anyway, however the showers were ok, though the shower head hanger was too low even for a 180 cm tall guy and you can say, that despite bathrooms being quite clean, last time they were maintained was like 20 years ago. Also, ladies who clean men's bathrooms don't hesitate to come in regardless the current number of clothes you are wearing. So to summ up, it is reasonably priced for a reason, it's not bad, I would come back if I had to but also would consider other places too.

  : The place location is good, I can take a bus to the city centre. Close to a supermarket that sells a lot of fresh stuffs.
  : There was no place to keep my personal belongings. Their vending machine was not working and their toilets have a bad smell, even though they put air freshers, and open the windows. The rooms are really dirty and messy.
