Podil Travel Guide

Kyiv

I wish the flowers were in front of the statue, not behind.
Amazing art isn't always in a gallery.
Podil is an AWESOME neighborhood of Ukraine that's crammed to the gills with great restaurants and cafes and bars.  3B just happens to be one of them where I took a photo!  Burgers are all the rage in Kyiv right now, and this is one of many places that features them on the menu and does a darn good job making them.  Decent beer selection too, and decent prices.

Nice place but needs issues addressed
I really like the location and vibe, except the loud 1980s music was annoying. The bed was comfortable and the water was hot. The food downstairs at Druzi Cafe was very delicious, but a bit pricey. However, their lattes were lukewarm and served in a soda glass with a straw. Definitely weird… Unfortunately, ...

Good stay, close to Podil and well priced!
The hotel is a well thought out millennial place with a pool table, vibrant colors, and great shared spaces. The only details I did not like so much is that rooms were a bit small and there were no closets, or space to place luggage. Also, the curtains were a bit small so it was not as comfortable ...
