Hostel Kalinin

Top choice in Western European Russia


Brightly painted rooms are comfortable and remarkably clean at this well-located hostel. Spacious dorms (mixed or female-only) come with lockers and individual lamps, and the fully equipped designer kitchen and common room are places you'll actually want to spend time. Reception is on hand 24/7. The entrance is tucked away at the rear, off the main street; best to call ahead.
