Kremlevskiye Ogni — Hotel in Khamovniki District

Location Is really good! Right next to Moscow Kremlin. Rooms were clean.

But that's about all the good things I can say about this hostel.

The pictures are very misleading. The lighting is awful. The atmosphere in the kitchen and the rooms is very depressing. They have no living room but a kitchen. You're not allowed to drink alcohol in it though so no chilled beer after a long day of walking, at least not near your bed. In general there are a lot of signs telling what not to do and it seemed liked you could get fined for anything that wouldn't suit the staff. The TV was running 24/7 so it didn't feel like anyone wants to talk to you. Staff was soso. Taking time at night to open the door (which is understandable at 4am, but still. It's their job). Sometimes grumpy, other times I swear I saw a smile on their faces. I wish I took pictures to show you but it was not worth the digital space.

In general it's not a bad hostel. It's very mediocre. But the advertising is bad. Deceptive images, apparently faked ratings because I can't see how someone would give this hostel 5 stars. Maybe because they would have slept on the...

First time staying in the hostel in Europe was exciting. The room was booked from the review that Thai wrote about it, and I decided to follow. There are 2 or 3 room types. We stayed in a private room which we found out that it was not that expensive to stay there when you stayed right middle in the city of Moscow. The hostel is close to Kremlin near the Alexander garden entrance. It’s also close to the Metro that you can walk easily to the metro station. The bathrooms and toilets in the hostel are for sharing. There are a few rooms, but I didn’t face any problems about using them together with another guests. The sharing kitchen is cozy, but too small. You can cook food in the kitchen. However, you may ask the staff where to find a supermarket. We failed to ask, but we found it in Arbat street during we roamed around. The room size is good enough for 2 people. However, it becomes small when you put 29’ luggage in the room. Don’t get me wrong. I don’t find it a problem at all. I definitely recommend this place. My experience in Moscow and this...
