* You Need A Driver To Get Here. I Hate The Location *

We hired a driver to get here and we definitely needed a driver. I was surprised we had to travel so far down this narrow, barren road. I pay the driver 50 rubles for the ride and he leaves us. I walk inside - ug! The lobby is dark, old and poorly lit. My assistant and I approach the front desk. The front desk queen says they cannot show us the rooms because they are all occupied (hmm... where have I heard that before?). So I ask if it is okay if I can walk the corridors so that I can get an idea of the quality of the hotel. My first item of interest was the hotel's restaurant. It was dinner time and not a soul was in the restaurant. I walked passed large halls. Nobody is in sight. Down the corridors leading to the rooms, I see nobody. This giant hotel is a ghost town! How can all the rooms be occupied?

Okay, so I got to see some rooms. Standard rooms are clean, but basic and old, and sort of crappy in a depressing kind of way. The hotel is huge! I walked far and then - oh my - a brand new section with a nice hallway, although the ambience was also a little depressing. I can say that there is a huge difference between the old section and the renovated section and the new rooms are much nicer.

Overall, I am not impressed. The location is terrible. It's isolated, and far from a metro and nowhere near the center of the city. The hotel is old. And they don't have people that "go the extra mile" it seems.

Pricing ranges between $30 to $60 for old rooms and $55 to $150 for new rooms. Taxes are included, (as of March 24, 2004).
