If you're looking for a place to spend a cheap night and are willing to meet friendly people, Near The Museum hostel is certainly the best for you.

The place offers some 20 beds allocated in two dormitories. However, the hostel also has a private room for people not keen on sharing a dorm. The staff will provide you with clean sheets and towels as you need them. The place has a kitchen, a nice common area and a balcony. Wi-Fi is free.

The owners, who work there too, are two young men, Nick and Mohammad, who decided to launch and run the business in March 2018. They speak English and Russian and Nick has some talent in the kitchen- he cooks really good pasta dishes and will do so for free, as if you were not a client but a friend. In their enthusiasm, they have succeeded in making the place warm. 

While it's not modern, it is clean and very comfortable. The common room is the key experience of the hostel. Users are respectful travelers from the world. And if you're stuck for what to doof an evening, you'll easily find someone to tag along with. 

The location is ideal. A market is on the street corner, 700 meters from the Dolphinarium, 600 meters from the Piazza, 400 meters from Europe Square, and less than 900 meters from the Black Sea.

Unfortunately, there is only one bathroom, one toilet and two sinks, so it can take a while to get your turn.
