Customer reviewThe rooms were ok but the attitude of the house owner was awfully dishonest. Our experience was that you will be dealing with petty crooks. |

Customer reviewThe sign for the hotel is not visible from the street...the place is not easy to find and should be made more clear. Other then that, this place is good for the modest traveler. The breakfasts were very good and the staff was very kind. The hotel is clean and well maintained. If you plan to go, you should learn a bit of the language. |

Customer reviewGood place and would recommend it, but very very hard to find. The cab driver couldn't find it, but we did arrive very late at night. Outside of the building is old and run down and signage for the hostel is terrible. Once we did find it and worked out how to get in it was very nice inside. |

Maria Jose OlaizolaDina is a delightful lady who ensures that the hostel is kept spotlessly clean and cooks huge Russian breakfasts for all guests (blinis, porridge, salads and many other things). She´s charming and treats you as if you were members of her own family. We loved her!!! |

Customer reviewThe staff were very friendly, even though there was a language barrier they ensured that this was overcome and made us friendly and welcome. Would definately recommend it and the location is excellent, within walking distance to all the main attractions! |

Customer reviewfancy place is definetely a good choice when coming to St Petes. The only thing one should know and that wasn't clear from the decription is that there are beds for 9 or 10 people but just 1 toilet and one shower. This certainly provides for a "Kommunalka" feeling for those looking for some nostalgia. Also there's only one table in the kitchen where breakfast is served and it obviously takes some time for the loveley (!) housekeeper to serve and clean up after the first round of breakfast and then preparing the second round. That wasn't really communicated so we ended up waiting one morning for 2 hours for our breakfast at which point we just decided to go out for blinys. Breakfast is very Russian style so if you like gretchka and kasha it's good. If you're expecting a continental style breakfast you're gonna be disappointed. |

Customer reviewThe place was lovely. Spacious room, nice bath with bath-tub. Free internet. Everithing was clean, in the morning we got fine breakfest at the time when we wanted. But drink alcohol is not allowed, reason is not to disturb such a calm atmosphere. Find this place is not so easy, important is to remember numbers, Bolsaja Moskovskaja 53, Pochtamtskij pereulok 8 (from left side of the house), flat No 16 in the first floor. The woman did not speak english and wanted some extra money from us for her work. |

Customer reviewgreat location - around ten minutes walk from the hermitage, three from st isaac's cathedral, five from the nevsky prospect. great breakfasts - home cooked! three rooms in one apartment with kitchen, bathroom, free internet; fantastic for a couple like us; if you want the true 'hostel experience' stay elsewhere, but if you are after a great location, fantastic value for money and a home from home - this is the place to stay! |

Customer reviewReally clean and nice (and new), great location (less then 10 min to Nevsky pr.). Breakfast was supposed to be included, but I only got it the first morning. Free internet! I'd stay again! |
