Okay stay that needs improvement.
The place is in a great location near the subway. Alot of stores and restaurants. This not a place for travelers it is better long term. However, it is not easy to get in, the smell of cigarettes, and old food. Needs a deep cleaning because there are roaches. Need to mindful of basics keeping toliet paper and better to keep sheets on the bed.

The price was good, location is good however it needs to be better kept if they are charging a fee for cleaning. And they also need to provide more to the guests. i.e toiletries, tours, house rules, etc

This hostel isn’t a real hostel, it’s someones 3 bedroom apartment with 10 bunk beds inside it. There are clothes, shoes, and miscellaneous nonsense everywhere. It’s a pig-sty. Not even exaggerating, there’s no room to walk in the bedrooms because the apartment owner is a slob and doesn’t have the decency to separate his personal belongings from the designated guest rooms. Bathroom had hair and dirt all over the floor and counter tops. Shower curtain was covered in black mold. Everything was disgusting. The bunk beds didn’t feel stable. They don’t have enough storage lockers for everyone, so I literally had to leave my luggage out in the open, with my only sense of security being that the hostel owner or one of his 2 sons would always be home (hiding in their bedroom) so that would lessen the chance of someone stealing my things while I was away. The front door to the apartment building is always locked, and the apartment is on the 3rd floor, so when you arrive you have to call and hope he answers your call. Hopefully the son doesn’t answer the door wearing nothing but a bath robe like he did for me. The apartment owner is russian and his sons speak very limited amounts of English - so try not to ask any questions.

Good just to sleep
It seems to be someone's house that's was filled with extra beds and that's it. Even when the guy was friendly and the bed confortable everything seemed to be improvised. They location is nor good either.

Not for tourists or backpackers
This guest house caters to long-term guests, not tourists or backpackers. As a result there is NO atmosphere, events or even reception. It is a renovated apartment that the guy has turned into a hostel. There isn't even a sign out front! I never saw the owner. After almost 24hrs he finally arranged for me to have a key. Until then I was forced to bang on the door until somebody let me in. The bathrooms were clean and the kitchen was decent in terms of cleanliness. Cheap bunkbeds- metal frames that make them very creaky and shaky. I would not stay here again; I would not recommend it to a tourist.

The hostel was very dirty, the bathrooms hadn't been cleaned and the room had a very bad smell. There was no curtains and the train was passing just by, so a lot of noise is to be expected.
