Getting to the Dormitory
The address of the dormitory is Studencheskaya street, 33/1. The easiest and cheapest way to reach the
dorm from the airport involves taking a train and then the metro. The total cost of the journey is about 13
dollars:
1. First, take the aeroexpress train from the airport. You can buy a ticket at the airport or in advance – for
more information, visit http://www.aeroexpress.ru/en. There are three main airports – Domodedovo,
Sheremetevo and Vnukovo – all of them are served by Aeroexpress
2. The next step is the Moscow Subway

Depending on your airport you will arrive at one of three railway stations – Kievskiy vokzal,
Pavelezkiy vokzal, Belorusskiy vokzal. To find a metro you could ask «Как мне пройти в
метро?/How can I reach the subway?». The logo of the subway is a large red letter “M”. You will find
ticket desks just inside the entrance to the metro, where you can buy a ticket (28 Rubles per trip, valid
for 3 days)
3. Inside the subway there are clear navigation boards with the names of stations and how to change to
different lines. They look like this
You need to go to Studencheskaya/Студенческая station, which is on the Filevskaya line/Филевская
(navy blue)
4. When you are on the Filevskaya line, be careful, because the line has two different branches. You
should take the “Kuntsevskaya/Кунцевская” line (not “International”/Международная). There’s a
board on the platform giving you information about the next train:
5. Take the train and after a few minutes you will get to Studencheskaya station.
6. The dorm is very close to the metro station. Go out from the metro, turn left, and then turn right
through the second arch. The walk from the metro to the dorm takes approximately 5 minutes. Here is
