I do not recommend! Insecure! Those staying at the hotel are not tourists, they are usually homeless people. I only stayed 1 day and left immediately. The woman standing at the reception is very rude and treats the customer so badly.
I agree that there should be no complaints because the rates are extremely backpacker-friendly. Youâre paying nothing and that is what you get. The four bed room smelled, the stalls are inadequate. The staff was good and helpful, it is a couple of subway stations to the heart of downtown. Ideally, book it for one night only. Or perhaps youâll get used to it after awhile. I donât know cos I only stayed a night. Iâll give it a good rating because of the price, competent staff and adequate kitchen/meeting room
This is a great hostel in terms of price/quality ratio. Their toilets are a little narrow, other than that great hostel, great staff. I would recommend this place.
Very clean and spacious hostel. Especially loved that the bathrooms and toilets were also gender separated. Ideal location. Very helpful and friendly staff too!
Your home away from home when home is to far away.
The best hostel ever! After trying several hostels in Kiev I came across Garis. Staying here was an absolute delight. The staff are helpful and courteous, the rooms clean and comfortable. Without hesitation, I would say Garis is the gold standard of hostels in Kiev. Most of the staff spoke English quite well, many of the other guests also spoke English and were friendly and helpful. The shared kitchen is well set up, the hostel is clean and close to the Metro and local markets. The area and the other guests were also quiet and friendly. Everyone was so polite I felt like I was back home in Canada among sober Canadians. Stay at Garis and you will not regret it for a moment. I love Garis(you will understand when you stay there :).
