Pricey but central, Sunflower is convenient and pleasant
The Sunflower is in a great location as it is in the center of Kyiv and near many of the sights you will desire to see. The hotel can arrange transport to and from the Airpot that is expensive for one person but a good value for 2 or more people. To access the b&b you walk off the side street and through a gate and small parking area to a door with a button to push to be let in. There is a small sign out front. The rooms are of generous size and the bed is good. The bath is clean but small. There is breakfast provided in the price and it is brought to your room. There is cereal, juice, tea, milk, toast, and fruit. All in all, it is very pricey for one person, still pricey for two. Given the choices for accomodations in central Kyiv, this is a good choice. I did much research and couldn't find a better value. Kyiv is just a pricey city for accomodations.
