Very calm and quiet place, clean and comfortable, and great value for the price. The kitchen is large and well equipped with everything you need. The location is excellent — just a few minutes’ walk to the метро station and grocery stores. The host is very friendly and helpful, which made the stay even better. Thank you for a lovely stay!

In my booking details, there is a service for keeping luggage, but they said they don’t have any spaces for it.. it is so bad!! So i needed to carry luggage to 8:00 pm my bus time after checking out!!

Good location, but they gave me the worst room. I had to pass a long way, more than 40 steps maybe, and then by the end of a hallway, very tiny elevator to -2 floor! Was a bit difficult and time wasting each time going in and out of the room

Breakfast is very basic and just cold food. Very little choice . Lifts are an issue. Only one small lift which is always packed. Location good, but house keeping rubbish. Not as advertised.
