A Soviet-era hotel! Anyone who wants to fully experience the atmosphere of the time of the USSR is welcome here. It's even interesting - the hotel is like a portal to the past-furniture, lamps, bathrooms, breakfasts - everything is from there. We knew where we were going, it didn't bother us. The room is clean, the bed linen, towels are all clean. View from the balcony to the square and the monument to Lenin. Near the Arbat, there are many cafes, they accept payment with Russian cards. Turn on the backlight in the evening.
A very good hotel, for lovers of the USSR, this is just the thing. It's like entering a kind of museum of the past. It's very quiet. The staff is polite and friendly. It is possible to pay with Russian cards.
An ordinary old Soviet hotel, old rooms with old furniture, a small combined shower room, a window conditioner in the rooms. But they clean it up quite cleanly every day. The staff is calm and polite. Breakfasts at the hotel are also in the Soviet style, porridge, egg, cheese, sausage. If you want to plunge into the USSR, this is the place where the epoch is felt. The location in the center is near the local Arbat, where there are several restaurants where food is normally served.
