Bed And Bike Gorohovaya Hostel

The location was absolutely perfect! It was disgustingly cheap.

The reservation confirmation said that towels were included. Not only were they not included, but they also did not have any towels at the hostel This is a very minor thing but still worth mentioning. There were only two showers for the entire hostel as far as we could tell, which of course is not enough. When we asked about getting keys for the lockers, we were made to feel like we were asking for something completely unreasonable - lockers is the most basic hostel amenity these days, so that shouldn’t be too much to ask for ;)

The location was very central. 5 mins walk from metro station with three lines that can get you pretty much everywhere you wanna go.

1. The staff didn't speak english at all. 2. Payment was complicated, at first they didn't want to accept my EU debit card, they wanted only cash. When I told them I didn't have enough Russian rubles they finally agreed to let me pay with my card, but they asked for the whole card information (such as my full name, card number, CVC). I really don't understand why they can't just charge directly via booking.com as I had entered my card info while booking. 3. The hostel was really really difficult to find. It was just an old looking small metal grey door on the side of the street. No signs whatsoever. You would never have guessed that its a hostel.
