Krestovaya Sopka Guest House

What was good

Fantastic location & the window view! My friend and I booked a double bed room for 3 days for traveling. The mini hostel is at the foot of the Krestovaya Mountain, I also did a morning run around the mountain, on the top of it, you will see the beautiful Russky Most with the blue sea. Forgive me for I can’t explain how beautiful it is in words! We can see the Cross head from our window. The hostel is a bit far from the city center, while it’s very quiet and comfortable. We saw the starry night view in the last night! By bus 60/59 or taxi we can spend 15mins to get in the town center. The location is very near to the Tokarevsky Lighthouse. There is a 24h market at the foot of the hotel, 7mins walking, where you can get water, breakfast and other daily groceries. Housekeeper lady doesn’t speak English, but with translate app, there’s no issue in communication. And she is a patient and kind woman! if you go there in summer, better prepare yourself with mosquito repellent! I never expected that in summer days Vladivostok is even hotter than Beijing outskirts areas 😂 Honestly, a highly recommended place!

What was bad

Hope the bathroom in the rooms could be equipped with a bath curtain! So the water wouldn’t be splashed everywhere when people are showering.
