Moscow

The location for its price is good, just 6 blocks from the Red Square. It is an old but comfortable house after all. Nothing spectacular but for its price and acceptable location. In the corner is a 24-hour open market with excellent food.

Rare but good.

We stayed 2 nights and had a good time, people from all over the world.The rooms are plenty of room, the heating works and there is hot, very hot water.It's quiet and the location is excellent, accessible by subway within a few blocks.

 acceptable.

It's a great place to stay, and it's not the cheapest, but it's a great place to stay.

The center is what it takes!

Very nice home in this old apartment converted into a guesthouse. The rooms are brief but correct. The possibility of taking your grandson's bath and doing his laundry. One point of attention: the apartment is not easy to find, there is no indication on the street (or on the interphone anyway). But by following the access instructions on their website, do not worry about getting there.

Good experience

We did not notify the owner about our time of arrival, and were left wondering on the streets for half an hour where the B&B was until we asked someone from a cafe where it was and they told us it was next to the art gallery. There is no sign on the door, no way of telling it was the entrance of the B&B. No way of buzzing either so after a while we were lucky the owner sponteneaously showed up and we could follow him inside. 

Room was spacious enough, bed a bit hard en the couch (another possible bed) was not at all comfortable. Nice chandelier on the ceiling. 
Bathroom was worn down, the shower head could not be fixed on the wall so you had to hold it in our hands while showering. 

Breakfast was nutritious, muesli, option for brown bread, nice yoghurt, coffee, tea. We got a map of Moscow as well. 

We told the owner we would check out at 10.30, but he did not show up for the transfer of the key on the day of our departure. While waiting for him, 2 other travellers knocked on the window (same problem we had 2 days before) and we let them in the guesthouse and told them to wait in the kitchen area...
Eventually we left, leaving the key in the door of our room because we had to catch a train!

Impossible to find, must make appointment for arrival!

The hotel is located in the immediate vicinity of the theater at the Little Bronny and the Pushkin Theatre. The street is quiet and cozy. There is a cafe nearby. The area is for those who want to have a cultural entertainment and walk around the center of Moscow.

It's an excellent mini-hotel.

I booked this place for an overnight as I had a 22 hr layover in Moscow. I wanted a place that was clean and comfortable and would not give me any fear of bedbugs or robbery. I intentionally stopped staying at hostels years ago (I.e. When I turned 30) due to these developing fears in my old age. I figured for $70 a night this would be like a budget hotel. Mind you, in my hometown of NYC I've stayed at nice (better than decent) hotels in manhattan for $100 a night. 

The first hint that something was amiss was my difficulty in finding the place. The directions I was given by the manager only took me as far as the subway station. From there I had to DIY map it with google. However, I couldn't figure out where I was on the map and NO ONE would help me until a friendly Subway (as in the sandwich company) employee understood my gesticulations and let me know that I had been in the right location for 30 minutes. 

I unwittingly passed the "b&b" a few times but could not identify it because there was no signage, except for something engraved into the stone in cryllic, which looked like it had been there for centuries. As the place is called Vanilla b&b, I thought perhaps there would be a sign that said that. But no.

Finally, I walked into a cafe and asked for help. At first they did not recognize the name, but then they said "hostel?" Hmmmm.... I didn't think I was looking for a hostel. But then they led me outside and R. was standing right there (where was he minutes before?). At this point I'm exhausted, drenched in sweat, been wandering, lost for almost an hour. However, there was no "glad you made it;" "sorry you got so lost;" "maybe I should have given you real directions." No. We walk inside the building which is next door to the cafe that had never heard the name Vanilla b&b, R. shows me my room and we sit down in the kitchen (actually he sat and I stood there incredulous that in my effort to not stay in a hostel I had actually ended up in a hostel) since there was nothing simar to a front desk or lobby and he tells me how much I owe. Now I wasn't expecting a welcoming parade, but sheesh! 

As for the room, it was clean except for crayoned drawings on the walls that no one seemed to care enough to clean or cover, but a bit scary. Very very small and not a place I felt comfortable leaving anything of value in, so I left the room immediately and walked around for the rest of the evening with my most valuable possesions in my bag.

The area is ok. It's a short walk from the metro and they say it's 20 min. walking to red square but it's actually 30 (google maps will confirm this).

There are four total rooms that share 1 sinkless toilet room and one room with a sink and a shower with (at the time of my stay) a broken shower head.

They say that breakfast is included, but breakfast is really just what you can find in the fridge. 

If you're a hostel-friendly (seems like a paradox, right?) person, then this place is mostly clean and you have private rooms so I think you'll really like it. (Personally, I've stayed in nicer hostels in the south of France for less than half the price but that's neither here nor there.) If you're looking for a b&b, this is not the place. 

Good luck and enjoy!

NOT a bed and breakfast!!!

Very convenient location, 3 minutes to the metro, half an hour on foot to Red Square. The room is clean, the laundry is normal, the plumbing is working, the wifi was working steadily. It was nice to have breakfast, although it was very simple. The only drawback is poor soundproofing.

I liked it.

Located in a beautiful area of Moscow. It has 3 bedrooms with shared bathroom. The room where I stayed was large, with a nice atmosphere, very comfortable. As for the negative aspects, there is no kind of receptionist or someone who can help you, since the person in charge, at least when I was there, only approached the hostel for a very short time. Likewise, as a negative aspect, although we warned that we would arrive at a certain time, we had to wait about 3 hours for the person with the keys to arrive.

Very highly recommended.

It all started with our flight being delayed by 2 hours, arriving closer to midnight and really wanting to sleep. From the airport to the hostel it was about an hour away, but we waited (and that's good). The manager quickly settled us down and we finally got to rest. The hostel room was very spacious, without excursions, but we came to walk around Moscow for 2 days and were away for a long time. The bed, the closet, the desk, clean laundry and fresh towels. The reviews again wrote that the hearing was good - we didn't notice it. We had a few nice foreigners from Spain, Greece and South Korea living with us. There was no kitchen, healthy tea and coffee (the train is running) for free tomorrow morning. You can stay here anytime, if you have a positive impression, and we'll have tickets printed.
