We lived in the hotel together with my wife, after the safari (huge thanks to the tour operator Safari-Zanzibari for it). Our room was cozy, small in size, but very beautiful!
Booked an apartment on Nevsky with his wife. It was quite recently - they came to St. Petersburg for 4 days on the November holidays. Booked one of the cheapest apartments. We quite liked it here. Checked in without problems, although we arrived 3 hours ahead of schedule. The apartment is big enough for two. The repair is excellent. Dishes, appliances - everything is there.
Good hotel, although far from ideal. My room was a single standard. Repair is completely normal, nothing remarkable. The bathroom has a bathroom and a cheap cabin. The room had a TV and a fridge.
