Apart Hotel Ribas

Fantastic location at the quiet end of Deribasovskaya St. very close to the Opera, and Potemkin stairs. Lovely courtyard with statue of Zamenhof (the creator of Esperanto) Easy to find, a taxi to/from the airport should be approx 120 Hryvna ($5) 20 minutes without traffic. Check in was fast and easy, after arriving at 10pm. We stayed in the Potemkin room, (no. 3) with large balcony, shaded by trees and overlooking Deribasovskaya St. Room was large and clean, with microwave, kettle and sink, crockery etc. Safety deposit box, bath robes, slippers, good lighting and power sockets, WiFi worked well at all times. TV with reasonable selection of channels. Bed comfortable, with a choice of Duvet and pillows. Plenty of storage space. Good size bathroom, with toiletries and good shower, good pressure and consistent temperature. The staff were friendly and welcoming. Also a message from Customer relations before visiting, and after our stay. offering help and asking if our stay was up to expectations. We had a little confusion regarding the mini-bar upon check out, but this was resolved. Loved the location, professionalism of the staff and management, the cup cakes and nice letter at check out. Good value for money overall, and met or exceeded our expectations. Booked directly through the hotel. There is a 24 hour supermarket 5 minutes walk away. Would be happy to stay again, or recommend to others.
