The location is great; however, we waited nearly an hour for someone to take us to our room. They have a big sign saying they “DONT” speak English (ok that’s fair) and that this is “NOT” a Hotel or hostel. When taken to our room, lady placed bedsheets on each of our beds for us to make up. When making my bed, I discovered blood stains on the mattress pad, so removed it. We asked for toilet paper and were told we had to buy our own. Some random man unlocked the door and walked into our apartment and was shocked we were there. We looked for another hotel, but as it was during the World Cup, we were stuck. If you can handle such inconveniences, the location is great and about a mile and a half from Red square and a few minutes walk from old Arbat and two metro stops. But, due to the bloodstains, lack of toilet paper, and poor service, I would recommend looking elsewhere.
