Stayed here for the World Cup with a group of friends. We booked our rooms 7-8 months in advance, and due to low availability and high prices across the city thought it was a good compromise. Under normal circumstances would not have stayed here, but in I would say, even though it is a bit of an old box, and quite dated (esp the breakfast in what seemed to be a conference hall) it kind of ticks all the boxes. Location close to subway, one stop from red square, not far from some of the outer nice areas, rooms a good nice and service generally friendly and helpful.
