I'll start with a good one:
The location is excellent, around cafes, shops, pedestrian streets, it is fashionable to go down in 10 minutes to the embankment and pier. There is a metro nearby. Cleaning and linen change every day. Good internet. The safe is free. There is a Russian-speaking staff. The price is more than affordable for such an arrangement.
And now about the bad:
The hotel is scanty, the repair is far from the first freshness, the furniture is chipped, the wallpaper is dirty, the rooms are cramped, the mattresses are already sold, one bed was with a broken back, there are no shelves at all in the shower, there is no floor mat in the bathroom, there is only one outlet behind the bed to put the plug - push it away the bed. There were 4-5 channels on TV, the rest without access. The curtains are just awful in what condition, the pillows are very thick, the sheets are stained. They say that everything is strange, just old... And there's nothing else for breakfast, cereal with milk, coffee or tea, cheese, sausage and eggs boiled hard and so every day.
Although the hotel is a bit old, it is clean, the breakfast is acceptable, you can write to the manager and come for cash. The staff is friendly and always ready to help, there are scales for luggage, there is a row with Istiklal street next to the fanicular cabotage
