    The beds were a bit narrow, but apart from that, nothing!

    I think it was a very nice hostel. Good value for the money and good location. Very easy to meet other travellers and there was a very cute little hostel cat.

    Nothing, everything was cool!

    Everything was perfect! The staff is able to speak english and can help in various things. You can meet a lot of international travellers there and and discuss together your next plans in the beautiful state of Kirgizistan. Karakol is very close to the mountains and in the Hostel you can find some travelling tips. They also created some itinerary and they wrote down how to reach the most important attractions near the city. The room was very clean, and so the bathrooms. We got nothing to complain, everything was on point!

    Nothing

    The hostel offers a perfect combination of good price, cleanliness, privacy, location and most importantly excellent support in organizing trips to nearby places. The hostel was a base for us for 14 days, from which we went to places that are not usual for tourists to visit. The lady spent hours with us and the whole trip would not have been possible without her help. For this we owe her our huge thanks.

    Everything actually especially the staff. They were very helpful, answered all our questions regarding trekking and cultural exposure events. They don’t organize tours, but they will recommend multiple or let you know how to book. The location is pretty amazing as well as it is near to popular destinations such as city center, destination karakol organization, and CBT.

    In the evening, is hard to have a hot shower, because mostly is used by others and the boilers are not able to re-fill quick

    It's a very good price friendly hostel, just in "outskirts" of Karakol. Basic but you won't need more, if you are coming for trekking. In the lobby you will find all the info regarding the treks, like how to get there and what to see

    Dorm very stuffy. One heavy snorer so no one got any sleep!!!! Not very near centre. Otherwise OK, good place to meet others.

    8 bed dorm room and other doubles arranged near kitchen area. It's a hostel, so basic. Ok for 1 night. Lockers and plenty of sockets.
