I, along with my daughter, stayed here June 22-26 as tourists in Moscow. We were initially given a double bed in a private room which was barely big enough for the bed--we then were moved upstairs to 2 twins in a single room which was much roomier. The room is super basic: no table, no chairs, just 2 beds. The... more

Upon first arriving, i was very disappointed. Renovations were ongoing and our private room required that we enter by walking through a dorm room. After the initial shock though, we were very happy. It was clean and the staff were very helpful and friendly. The bathrooms could have been cleaner and the hot water operated on an all or nothing... more

The hostel was undergoing renovations, so that could be the reason for some of the problems that I encountered. 1. The location was very good, and I walked to the Red Square area everyday. This was the best feature. The metro was also close. 2. The price was adequate for Moscow. However, looking back, I should have just coughed up... more

We were warned that whilst in Russia we would be ripped off by all the various authorities... police, tourist attractions... apparently in Russia everyone is out to get you. However, the last place that we expected to rip us off was this 'modern' hostel in Moscow. We arrived early one morning from an overnight train, hoping to spend two nights... more

I booked directly with the hostel and had booked a taxi pick up. I emailed with them several times. At the beginning they were prompt in replying and quite helpful. When I arrived in Moscow at 9:30pm (this is January, so it's cold too) there was no taxi waiting, so I took the metro. Fine. then I arrived at the... more

It's central, but central in Moscow doen t mean that you're a 15-minutes-walk from the Kremlin, as said in their website. It's a backpaper hotel, not so expensive for moscow..The cleanness of the room was regular but not so spectacular. It's not so easy to find the hotel and at night, the area is not very sure. more

It was one of best hostel where I've ever stayed. And I can not understand ppl who is complaining about renovations and not getting enough attention from staff members. That's not true!!! Common ppl... you are on holidays - come down and take life easy. We also ordered Trans-Siberian road tickets with them. The best price you could find. And... more

It would seem as though Godzillas has had a change of management since many reviews were written in 2oo6. And we did not experience very friendly or helpful staff. There was a notice advising that they offer a travel service eg. buying train tickets on your behalf for a small fee. We decided to do this to save ourselves some... more

I was happy to have found the hostel. The stuff was mostly nice and it was cheap for Moscow. They were not able to reserve a small room for us - so we shared it with strangers - was okay. It was relatively clean. Except look at the pics for the bathroom - that is unacceptable. When a lock broke... more
