Liked: If something is good value for the money, this would be it. The location is almost as central as it can be and everything seems to be working well. If you're looking for a hostel in the city while the price being a priority this would be it!!!

Disliked: Nothing that would be defuned as a characteristic of the hostel.

Liked: The hostel has wifi, well equipped kitchen, 2 showers and toilets which were mostly kept clean, nice staff etc.. above all, this hostel is located in the centre of the city so you can easily get to most attractions in the city. The price was absolutely resonable.

Disliked: It's on the 5th floor, but the lift was not working.

Liked: Good locations, facilities, and helpful staff

Disliked: In a rather decrepit building, but the hostel has made up for it in their improvements. Don't judge this book by its outside cover.

Liked: Location is great - right on Nevsky Prospekt near Mayakovsky metro station. The place is a little difficult to find (there are no signs on the outside), and the building is old (as are most buildings in central St. Petersburg), but the interior was newly renovated and clean. The girls at the counter were very helpful. The room was quite spacious - even with 10 bunk beds, there was a lot of space in the middle. The breakfast was more than adequate - bread, cheese, milk, cornflakes, yoghurt, and tea - and better than other hostels charging a lot more. Overall, excellent value for the money. If I return to St. Petersburg, I'll stay here again.

Disliked: They should put some signs on the outside to help people locate it, or provide better directions. The building needs renovation, but I'm not sure whether that is possible.

Liked: Nothing.

Disliked: It was very difficult to find this hostel. You get just a describtion of a location of the hostel. When you come there, there is no badge on the wall, on the doors. This hostel is very dirty, a staff doesn ´t speak english or very poor. Actually, I don´t recommend this hostel for other backpackers.
