PROS: Smack in the center of the city. You just step out and you are in the middle of everything that counts. Nice views of the old hotel Moskva from the livin room. Big rooms with high ceilings. Nice common area, free internet, free coffee and tea. Crisp white sheets. A/C - heater in every room. Lockers, closets, hooks, shelves all over the place. Very nice people that work there, friendly, knowledgable etc.
CONS: Dorms are little bit cramped.The nicest rooms are 2-bed,4-bed, and "apartment". Rooms toward the street need better windows with sound insulation (building is old and beautiful, but it needs some work done). Beds are comfortable but some of them have matresses that need a top pillow (can feel the coils sometimes).Cleanliness in common areas and bathrooms depended of who was working at that moment.More maps and general info available would be helpful. more
