6/10 Good
20 May 2019
I had a decent experience there, however the description on Orbitz needs updating to be more accurate. First and foremost, this is a hostel, not a hotel/motel. That means shared bedrooms as well as shared WCs and kitchen. I was startled to find three very old Russians ready to share the room I had had to myself for three days at 10 PM at night. The Orbitz description had listed my room as a twin room with bunk beds. Well, it had six twin bunk beds and was clearly a hostel room, not a twin bed room. Thursday night it turned into a hostel room, complete with snores from the older men. In addition Orbitz indicated the property was in the center of the city. Hardly. It was in a southern suburb and it was above a mechanic's workshop and next to a cement (?) plant. Not the most salacious of locations. There was a lot of drilling noise during the day. In addition they built new bathrooms and washing up facilities while I was there. That was noisy. Other details: It seems everybody but I spoke Russian. At times with the families and children, it felt like staying in a Russian family's old large house. I'm not saying that that is a bad thing, just something to be reckoned with. And, finally, there is no free shuttle to the airport as Orbitz indicated. Instead, it is expensive.
