We had a great time in st Peter, largely due to the information and tips given to us by Natalia. She really is a wonderful host and cooks a lovely and generous breakfast. All the main sites are in walking distance so you won't have to spend much on transport. Definitely recommended! More

My husband and I have just returned from three weeks in Russia. The highlight of our trip was the 6 nights we stayed at B&B Assembly. Natalia is a gracious hostess and a fountain of information. We so enjoyed getting out the map each morning and planning our daily adventures with Natalia, who always had great suggestions. The location is... More

Our wonderful host Natalia sets a bench mark for a great time in St P. Accom is very comfortable, eclectic and uncluttered, the locale is right above the local daily market mix, non touristy yet nothing is too far on foot, lots of fav things within 15-20 mins stroll. Natalia provides excellent knowledge on all food options (safe and daring... More

B&B Assembly is largely wonderful. Very comfortable, it feels like a home away from home. It's very clean and Natalia is very friendly and helpful. We loved the breakfast and the conversation with fellow travelers. It's fairly close to Nevsky Prospekt and thus to most of what we wanted to do in St. Petersburg. My only reservation is that the...

All other comments are really true! Natalia adopted me, my husband and my 18 months baby for 6 great days, and we left feeling to have a real home in St. Petersburg. The location of the B&B is really good, walking distance to Hermitage and most of attractions. The rooms are nice, spotless, and super-quiet. For us the bonus was... More

We loved this BNB. Natalia the host helped arrange our visa, set up an itinerary (everything she recommended was great), cooked us traditional Russian breakfasts, and helped our understanding of modern day Russia. Meeting her was a bonus and we are definitely intending to return. She was a charming and thoughtful host. She helped make St Petersburg the highlight of... More

St Petersburg would not have been the same without her guidance for walks, restaurants, and theatres. She spends time with you and is a wealth of knowledge. There is no need to spend any money on a guide nor will you need much in the way of public transport when you stay here as her place is very central. Her... More

As everyone else has said, Natalia is amazing and greatly enriched our experience in St. Petersburg. She outlined a walking tour for us, made sure we knew where to stop and rub things or throw coins for good luck, talked to us about her life in Russia, and was an excellent tourist advisor. Her breakfasts were fantastic. The entrance and... More
