Comrade Hostel

I stayed here during my trip to Moscow. Place is nice and recently decorated. There are two rooms here for eight people each. Rooms are spacious so I did not have problem with my cameras and other equipment. Common room awesome designed and large enough to fit ten. Good thing about this hostel that is has three showers so no lines here in the morning.
Staff is friendly and speak English but not French, helps a lot with the tickets, moscow's attractions and can advice you on nightlife (which is really good and most of the good clubs are within the walking distance so the only problem is morning headache).
The minus is that hostel is not easy to find and it is only small sign near the entrance though they going to put the big one on the main street. But comparing prices for the hotels in this area I prefer to stay at this place.
