Hostel Loco

Positive: I liked that this place is in a residential block, not far from shops and Russian consulate. Everything is kept clean and kitchen is ok. Staff will help with anything you need. I stayed for 2 weeks to get my Russian transit visa and do some maintenance on my motorcycle. This place is good if you just need a decent place to stay.

Negative: I was in a private room with its own WiFi router, bandwidth was good but the connection constantly dropped. Staff don’t like to communicate, they prefer not to know you. Other guests are mostly not travellers I have no idea who they are because they are not even saying hello. This place is not good for getting to know locals or travellers. In hindsight I should have rented an entire apartment for about the same price, which would have been equally lonely, but with more space.
