Dima welcomed us cheerfully despite a delayed train/a strike making it impossible for us to precisely say when we would arrive. We didn't get to see him or his family much during our stay, but enjoyed our stay regardless.
The room is as advertised. Both it and the ample bathroom were clean. We appreciated the water heater in the room.
The place is quite centrally located near some major city atttractions and close to the subway and train networks.
The only drawbacks were the noise outside at night (but that's to be expected in such a central location in a lively city) and the construction starting around 8 each morning either elsewhere in the building or next door.
