Within walking distance.
Just need a room for the night. Hopefully one near the old town. Perfect. Not new hotel, but clean and practical. Definitely within walking distance of the main old town. If you are coming by train - may be worth a taxi ride.

Tired hotel, and "we-don't-care" service
The hotel is perfectly livable but could use a refresh. Flooring, furniture, bathrooms all look like they've been around the block a few times. Our room also had that distinct smell of smoking once having been allowed. But here's where we got screwed. Checked into our Premium room, with a clearly pregnant wife and a 5 year-old. It was a Saturday. Around midnight music started being audible, and from 1am the level of noise woke us all up. This was coming from a nightclub situated in the same building. Went downstairs and told I couldn't sleep. "Is it because of the music?" was the reply. WHO ACCOMMODATES A FAMILY TO SLEEP ON TOP OF A NIGHTCLUB, KNOWINGLY? We got a new room which was smaller. In the morning I was charged for the Premium one we couldn't sleep in. I complained and left my email address, heard nothing back. Go at your own risk.

Everything was generally fine. The circumstance I liked the most was the location of the hotel. The city center is really few meters away. As ethnic Russian, I also enjoyed the presence of the monument of Barclay de Tolly* in front of the hotel :). Staff at the reception was friendly, breakfast (especially porrige) was delicious, beds were comfortable, ventilation quiet. The hotel itself is situated in a historical building, what makes a cozy 'old-fashioned' atmosphere. The only negative remark I would have concerns a bit untidy water tap at the bathroom. And I also should say that the parking meter in the hotel's patio is quite small (up to three cars may be safely parked). To summarize, the hotel is worth its money and is worth staying in. __________ *Russian military commander of German-Scottish origin, one of the heads of Russian army during the Napoleon wars in the 19th century.

A bit disappointing
I have stayed in the Barclay before. The location is good and it has a bit of history but it is getting shabby and could do with a bit of modernising. I arrived early and despite the fact that the hotel had very few guests was not able to get my room until 2pm. The room faced the back and was quiet. There seemed to be very little staff. When I went to breakfast the next morning, there was no staff to be seen, just 4 people sitting down so I just helped myself to a typical but ordinary European breakfast. Eventually someone came and I gave my room number. The staff were helpful when needed but as I said, there were few of them. Next visit I will stay somewhere else.

Oh boy! Former Red Army barracks!
Centrally located and kind of odd, Barclay is allegedly a former Soviet army barracks... and even if that's not true, it certainly feels like one. Which is not to say uncomfortable, just... stern and spartan. This is an efficient, basic accommodation, not some kind of decadent western experience for people who actually use words like "luxe" in sentences. True: there is one key per room which you must leave at the desk when you go out, but also true: desk staff always had it ready in hand when we came back in.
