A good hostel-hotel, everything inside is solid, high-quality, at least in our room (there was a suite), at an affordable price, by the way. The attic floor, but it doesn't bother, the ceilings are comfortably lowered and it's even nice to live with such ceilings sometimes. And there is a monastery within walking distance, while you reach it (20 minutes), you get into the atmosphere of a calm, well-maintained village town, the fences in Polotsk were amazing for us - everywhere concrete with balusters and decorations! And the hotel is quiet and pleasant.… You can stop again and more than once)

We stayed with a family for one night, a two-room suite. It's clean and cozy. There is a fridge and a kettle in the room. I was surprised by the high-quality bed linen - cotton satin. The staff is very friendly and helpful. On-site parking. You can stay with a pet, in our case a dog. Thanks to the staff! We recommend it!

A good hostel - very clean, high-quality linen, friendly and caring staff, comfortable kitchen. We were on our way to Minsk - the best place to spend the night and relax after the road. Convenient location- near grocery stores, not far from the Spaso-Efrosinyevsky monastery.

I don't know how the hostel stays when it's full, but during our stay, only 4-6 rooms out of, if I'm not mistaken, 12-14 rooms were occupied. I liked everything - closed Parking for a sufficient number of cars, a Playground, a barbecue area, a terrace with tables, gazebos. There is a beautiful and clean dining room, there is everything you need for your own cooking from dishes and appliances, as well as a lot of cereals, spices and other things. There is a very nice and helpful girl at the reception, the whole hostel is very clean and cozy. We slept in absolute silence - there were no sounds either outside or inside the hostel, however, we spent only one night. We were the last to leave, we took advantage of it with pleasure and walked around the small well-groomed territory, looking into all the corners, and after leaving we forgot about the delicious Belarusian ice cream left in the freezer. We called the girl at the reception and asked her to eat it for us.😊 In general, we definitely recommend it!

It's not the first time I ordered a sauna in Sofia, but this time we were a little disappointed. Namely, I didn't like that the shower faucet near the steam room was broken, and the cockroaches nearby left unpleasant impressions. I liked the steam room, the temperature is comfortable, the staff does their job well. Minus 2 stars for unsanitary conditions.

We spent two nights, traveled to nearby cities. We lived in a two-room suite with a large hallway and a spacious bathroom in the attic. It's relatively clean, and the renovation is a little late, but it doesn't affect the quality of your stay. I liked that there is a large kitchen downstairs where you can cook, there are a lot of dishes, everything is well equipped. Parking is good, the territory is well maintained. The TV wasn't working, so I had to insist on getting it fixed, and everything worked. There are a lot of people relaxing, there is a sauna, a barbecue area; the atmosphere of home and comfort. We had a good rest, it was quiet. We were driving without a navigator, and we found it quickly, because the sign with a sign indicating the entrance from the main street helps a lot!

The hostel is open 24/7, there is always communication with the administrator. It's quite cozy, clean, and bright. There are grocery stores nearby. The kitchen is equipped with appliances and dishes. Kettle and refrigerator, TV in the room. The territory is well maintained and fenced. Marina, the receptionist, received us very cordially, was professional and tactful. Overall, it's very good for the hostel. The only caveat is that the shower stall only has a watering can in the ceiling, but I would like to see a watering can with a hose. This is especially true for girls who are not ready to wash their long hair daily.) Thank you for the warm welcome and comfortable stay.

We had a rest on March 14 in a gazebo behind glass.During the preliminary inspection, certain services were discussed, but when they arrived on the ordered date, everything turned out to be completely different.They didn't want to give me a music speaker, they said it wasn't working, and in the end it was working.They allowed us to boil the potatoes only after they said that they promised to help us do it when they came for a preliminary examination.Well, the most interesting thing is, the condition of the gazebo was just terrible, dirt, debris on the floor.And all this was provided to us by the very "polite" receptionist Svetlana.

I'll give you five points for the excellent price/quality ratio. For 3400 we rented a two-room suite for one night (small in size). The hostel is located within walking distance from St. Euphrosyne Monastery. There is a bus stop nearby, 10 minutes and you are in the city center. The room is clean, the staff is friendly, and there is everything in the kitchen to prepare meals if necessary. If it's hot outside, then the room will be stuffy. This must be taken into account.

We spent one night in a room without a bathroom. It's clean, there's a mosquito net on the window, it's quiet under the windows, except for the rooster next door)) But the pillow, judging by the smell, was clearly once described by a child ( There are towels in the room. The bathroom on the floor is equipped with everything you need: soap, shampoo, shower gel. There was no queue for the toilet/shower. There is a kitchen downstairs where you can cook food or drink tea (tea bags are available). There is a refrigerator, a washing machine.

There are a lot of cups in the kitchen, but no plates. Why? The rooms are well maintained and don't smell anything. The walls are cardboard, if the neighbors have a dog who wants to bark, you'll have to deal with it somehow. They don't really tell you what they have there and what you can use, but the staff is not interested in your experience of staying. The bathroom and toilet are shared, but they are clean. As a backup option, when there are no places in hotels because of the athletes, it's very good. I liked that the atmosphere was mostly secluded, but not abandoned. For example, the motion sensor on the smoking room worked, which turned on the flashlight in the dark.

We were in the sauna at the beginning of 2025. The cost is reasonable. The sauna was in a separate building from the hostel. It was possible to additionally use a barbecue, barbecue grills, a veranda, dishes, a microwave, a kettle. We needed our own coal. I liked it and even really liked it. But I disdained to use the pool - the water was not so clear that the bottom could not be seen. And I couldn't get disposable slippers at the reception. The broom was brewed for arrival. I hope no one has used it before. And the broom is good - no matter how much they steamed, the leaves did not fly off.

The only advantages of this hostel are round-the-clock check-in, there is a good kitchen, everything you need there, and a cozy reception. Now for the most basic numbers:they are light, but small; the walls are thin, you can hear the neighbors snoring, etc.For a moment, we paid almost 2,000 rubles and were given a room without amenities and with a SHARED BATHROOM AND TOILET. For me, this is unacceptable when you pay such a sum, you expect something more than just a separate room with separate beds, by the way (although we are a couple, and we talked about it)Well, the towels were left (thanks for that).As a result, it is unpleasant to use neither the toilet nor the bathroom (by the way, they have it in the same room )because it's unclear how often everything is cleaned and whether someone is watching it. So that you have an idea, you will want to go to the toilet/bathroom, everything is combined, first you are greeted by a sink and a mirror, then there is a toilet in the corner and a tropical shower behind the wall and that's it. (It was as disgusting as possible to wash there)there was dirt of all kinds of unknown origin on the walls of the shower... How easy it is to spend the night there, I would recommend (but washing and everything else is atas).

Like it. The room is spacious. It's good that the toilet and shower are in the room. It's bright and cozy. Wonderful kitchen. The price is almost as promised, despite the fact that we were with a cat and had checked in earlier. Friendly administrators. However, the curtain fell off. Clean, really clean.

It totally sucks. I booked it as a hotel, it turned out to be a hostel. There are ten rooms on the floor and a toilet at the end of the corridor, and a shower with a curtain and a rag on a coil. The furniture in the room is not even clear what years. I haven't seen this one in a long time. It's old. There is nothing extra in the room. The hostel is located in the private sector. One of the advantages is its own territory with Parking. There is a kitchen where you can cook, warm up. There is also a sauna and a gazebo on site. If you go with a company and discard the conventions mentioned above, then you can probably relax. Or just spend the night and leave right away. But you always want at least a minimum of comfort. But I didn't find it here. He expressed his opinion. It might be useful to someone. It's up to you

It's warm, cozy, and homely. The hospitable administrators will always prompt and tell you and help you with everything. The only drawback is the Wi-Fi on the second floor, which they haven't been able to do for 3 years, but on the first floor you can surf the Internet with a full antenna. And so there is a kitchen where you can cook and a wonderful sauna.

It is good for festive events, but if you just need to sleep, then there is a risk that it will be noisy from loud music in the yard. I was unlucky, I just needed to sleep, but I had to wait for the campers from the same hostel to hear enough. The administration's position is that there is no limit to the volume of music until 11 p.m. It's a strange position, to say the least. Nevertheless, thanks to the administrators anyway, the music became much quieter at 11.

It was a little stuffy, there was no air conditioning, but in principle it was not critical. The windows are opening. There are fumigators. We rented a two-room suite. There is a large closet in the hallway. The bedroom has a comfortable bed, there is a large mirror. The child was sleeping on the couch. The bathroom has a shower and a hairdryer.

We traveled with our parents, took 2 suites opposite. The conditions are excellent, the "attic" inconveniences were a little strained: stuffy from the heated roof, ventilation is not particularly effective; a kind of shower: only a ceiling "tropical" watering can, while there is no "standard" with a hose. It was a little unusual for my parents, it was normal for us. But in general, the price-quality is excellent + friendly and helpful staff. I think, against the background of other offers in Polotsk, this place is just top.

The place is beautiful. The rooms are cozy ... but the staff should have been (not everyone, there are smiling and friendly girls) trying to hide their irritation at the arrival of guests. As an example, they refused to tell us the way by phone from the Eternal Flame. It was raining, we got lost... is it really difficult, because the locals work. They gave me the address, and thank you for that. They settled in room 5, there is no hot water in the shower. I had to harden up... then they agreed to relocate, with lamentations that there were always problems with hot water in this room, and why they put the question in the room. We moved to 11. The remotes are fat, you can't take them in your hands. The refrigerator is rattling like a generator… The morning was brightened by the smiles of a charming girl who was very polite and kind..

In general, it is not a bad place in the private sector on the outskirts of Polotsk. On the territory there is a small playground, a sauna (which we did not get into, we need to book in advance), barbecues and gazebos where you can sit with a barbecue. Our room was on the 1st floor, 4-bed - 2 beds and a two-storey one. The beds were wooden and creaked terribly at the slightest movement. In general, the room is clean, there is a refrigerator, a TV with one channel, but the bathroom leaves much to be desired (we were here 6 years ago - since then the toilet has been leaking), the shower head is only the upper one with a rather weak pressure.. There is a kitchen where you can cook on your own. It is a pity that we have abandoned the practice of breakfast from the hotel. The Internet was provided, but I almost didn't catch it in the room, just like 6 years ago, by the way. But in general, it is quite suitable for 1 night

I asked to be put in a room where people can move in, but not in a six-bed room. Instead, I was offered only one option - a room for two people and demanded payment for two. I put one minus because of that. It is fashionable in the hostel to cook for yourself, there are conditions for this..the nearest shop is a 15-minute walk away at a leisurely pace
