Bathroom looked like it hadn\'t been cleaned for years. Didn\'t appreciate looking up in the shower to dirt, grime and cobwebs!

Great location, very helpful staff and info desk (thank you for the train time table!), washing machine was much appreciated, and good breakfast food included. Also, availability of the second "Summer" hostel building is great for overflow. Would definitely recommend.

Although this hostel was small what made it was the pople who stayed there. This hostel has a brilliant atmosphere, and was full of people travelling the trans-siberian route in both directions. A fantastic place to meet people and make new friends

I had a good time at the hostel, though I had a harder time getting there than I thought I would. Just so you know, if coming from the airport, do not cross the river. Get off the bus right before the river and look around there. The staff was very helpful and everyone was nice. The breakfast is just bread and butter. There aren\\\'t lockers for your stuff and there\\\'s only one bathroom but it\\\'s cozy and familial so I think security and cleanliness is not a problem.

Maybe the internet can be made free and the price for a night made slightly higher?

like most russian hostels its a single apartment converted to a hostel. Theres 2 rooms each sleeping 6 or 8. It was well located with hot water and convieniences nearby. The staff friendly, the only drawback is the single bathroom and the race to use it every morning

Very pleasant atmosphere; the social spaces were conductive to swapping stories and sharing a few drinks. The free breakfast of a loaf of bread and powdered milk in the coffee is a bit of a sly one, but then it's free, so whatever. Fairly good location and helpful staff. Bedding was a bit shoddy, but they were beds and on them you could sleep, so mission accomplished. Lose the TV though - nothing kills a hostel vibe more than a TV. Well, American college kids...
