Oriental Pearl Hostel

The case when the expectation does not correspond to reality by 100500%... On the day of check-in, our previously paid room reservation was cancelled. We had to quickly look for an alternative, because there were almost no hotels left during the holidays. We found this option, the photos are good, the reviews are good too, the price is really 3 times more expensive, but what can you do, you can't wear it on the street. What can I say... The only plus is the location, close to the center, the embankment. At first, they gave us a small room, which was in block A on the 3rd floor. To get to the right floor, you will have to stand in line for 15-20 minutes for the elevator. The room itself is 3 meters, where instead of windows there are a bunch of mirrors, the beds are in an L shape, the bathroom with the toilet is generally a separate form of art 😅 The fussy owner demanded a deposit of 1000 yuan from us. When we said we had no cash, he kept our passport, apparently as a guarantee that we wouldn't take anything with us 🤣 Although he only gives out towels and toilet paper upon request. We were able to take a hair dryer only once, and even then, we had to agree on it in the evening. But the fun didn't end there)) On the second day, he moved us to block D on the 7th floor, citing the fact that the new room was large and spacious. But he didn't warn us that we would have to share this "wonderful" room with the cockroaches we met in the morning... Nothing else changed, the same lines for the elevator, the room itself may not be 3, but 5 meters, the bathroom is the same, but there was also stinking garbage, the smell of cigarettes, dampness, constantly screaming neighbors - in general, a combo 🙈 In India, the most notorious hotel was cleaner and more well-kept than all this horror! It's good that our stay was only a couple of days. But 10,000₽ per day for such conditions is just too much☝️I don’t advise anyone to rent it.

It’s not worth it, the environment is so bad, there’s not even a decent quilt, and there are cockroaches in the morning🪳

It is recommended that you really don’t stay here. The environment is very bad and the boss is dishonest. The platform needs to be checked. Some unscrupulous merchants should stop promoting and attract them at low prices. The environment is not generally bad. Whoever stays here will regret it.
