there is a hostel on ulitsa kazanskaya (previously ulitsa plekhanova) about two doors down behind kazanskaya sobor. it is associated with herzen university and to the best of my knowledge you have to have a sponsor… but it is about 10 bucks a night with a single and a bathroom. it is also a foreign language dorm. there is a restuarant on the ground floor…

Thanks everyone for all your suggestions! I will definitely have a look at all these and find out which is the best for me. I think since I’ve never been to Russia and I’m going there for the first time by myself, what’s most important to me is somewhere that is close to the the city centre and is secure. I’d rather pay a bit extra to have that security than some dodgy cheap place.
I’ve got a Russian friend who may be able to translate the Russian hotel websites, so thanks ANZ for the links as well!
Cheers
