LODGING IN RUSSIA
A good place for finding a hotel in Moscow, S. Petersburg and other cities is Moscow hotels. Hotels in the city center are as expensive as in other countries, so it could be a good idea to find a more distant hotel or to rent an apartment.
Another resources are:
An excellent resource is Russian Links; apartments with one or two rooms in the center of S. Petersburg can be found at 50$ a day. A rich description can be required sending an email to Elena.
Russian Links has agents in over 100 cities in Russia, Ukraine, Belarus, Estonia, Latvia, Uzbekistan, and other CIS countries.
Especially if you intend to spend a longer time in the country and learn the language, a homestay is a variant to be taken into consideration. The link to start from is www.homestay.ru You live in a family, sharing the meals and seeing the Russian life from inside.
Check also www.russisch.com (the site is mostly in German). Every now and then somebody offers his/her flat for a good price.
