If you are going to stay in a hotel with two stars, you should not wait for luxury.
1. Booking. Very convenient on site hotel. They send you the booking number by email. You can easily edit the check-out and check-in dates yourself if, like me, there was a force majeure. Just in case, I called a couple of days before arrival, checked, everything was in force.
2. The price for a hotel in the center of Moscow is simply magical. The location is very convenient. I chose based on location. And everything suited me. Nearby there are several catering cafes of different styles and price categories, a pharmacy, a supermarket, all within a 5-minute walk. 10 minutes walk to the metro station. Bus stop nearby.
3. I checked in after 2, so there were no problems. At the reception, the aunts were twitchy, but the documents were given all at once. Although there was a state of nervousness, all questions were answered, they helped without delay.

The only negative is the long check-in, filling out two forms with personal data, which is why a queue of several people often forms at the reception. And the rooms are locked with keys, not with cards that must be handed in when you leave.
4. Numbers. Basically a bomb. I had to visit two rooms. Each has its own nuances. I had booked a single room in a section. The first room on the second floor was more spacious, with two sockets. The first was at the table with the tee, the second at the bed. Everything is comfortable, good. But light cracks in the walls and wooden frames blown by all the winds spoiled the impression a little. The triple curtains, apparently, should have somehow contributed to the preservation of heat in the room, but I can’t say anything definite about this, since I had to move out of the room. Because the shower in the room didn't work. The shower hose was broken and water flowed not from it, but over it.
As a result, at half past 11 in the evening I had to collect the things already laid out and move to another room on the 6th floor in several visits. This room was smaller, but with plastic windows and therefore much warmer. But it had only 1 outlet, which was located just above the floor level, in the corner, between the table and the closet. Given that the hotel does not provide a hair dryer and there is no socket in the shower, drying hair was somewhat problematic. And in this room the shower door was broken and it could only be closed from the inside. When I told the reception about this and asked to write it down, I was told that "the master has already left and nothing can be done today. "
I wanted to write that it's nice that the supplies of disposable soap and shampoo updated every day were a nice bonus, but one day they brought them to me, and the other didn't.
Another surprise was waiting for me when I went to bed. She staggered. Upon closer examination, it turned out that one of its legs was supported by a powerful iron bar. Apparently, for greater stability. Well, with my 50 kg it somehow worked, but I'm not sure if this is acceptable for people with more weight.

I can’t say anything about cleaning - the garbage was taken out, no layers of dust were noticed, but there is a clear mark on the carpet near the door, which shows how the door opens. That is, behind this trace inside the room, the carpet is dirtier. But the linen is clean, and towels!
5. I had breakfast included and, I want to say, there was something to have breakfast. Boiled eggs, casserole, one kind of second (pasta on the first day, rice with vegetables on the second), two types of bread, butter, several types of sausages, two types of cheese, cereal, porridge, coffee, tea, cream. One day there was even an omelette, but the next day it's gone : (
In short, you won't leave hungry.
6. Checked out of the hotel without any problems. They even allowed things to be left for free until the evening in the luggage room.
In general, the price-quality corresponds. To come to spend the night (and why else do you need hotels ?! ), you can use.
P. S. If you want to pour hot water in the cooler at the reception, do not forget to ask the security guard for help, otherwise you will fill the entire lobby with boiling water, like me. And yes, there are no other coolers in the hotel!
