    Nothing really. Everything was just nice.

    It was exceptional experience - we stayed there before and after our hike to the mountains. Very authentic, cosy and convenient place. The manager was super helpful and accommodating. Facilities clean and good working condition. Breakfast was just amazing. The yurts were staying in a fruit garden. It was a bit of walking to the bus station and the very centre of the town, but all in a reasonable distance. And the owner is happy to give you tips about how to get around the town, where are best shops and places to eat etc. Thank you very much, Yurt Camp! We'll stay again next time.

    Was a perfect stay. The host is so friendly. We even could store our luggage during our hike to Altyn Arashan. There’s enough toilets and showers. Everything was perfect.

    Very calm and quiet place to stay in the center of Karakol. The yurts are surrounded by several fruit trees which helps to keep them cool. Rustam and the rest of the staff were always friendly and helpful with our questions about parking, day hikes, etc. The breakfasts were always fantastic :)

    Sleeping in a yurt in the middle of a city? Amazing! The owner was very flexible with our arrival after midnight (after previous call). Tasty breakfast, clean and modern common bathroom, chill out room with a fridge, sinks to do your laundry - we appreciated that after a week in the mountains. Great value for the money!

    The corner where our yurt was in was a bit stinky.

    We liked the camp. We were well taken care off, the breakfast was nice, it was an easy walk into town and the yurt comfortable.

    We had a very good stay in a yurt. Wash and toilet rooms outside were modern and very clean. The host was very friendly and gave us many tips for our mountain trip. We enjoyed the stay there very much.

    The wifi gets weak in more distant yurts, but it's easy to go out and sit on one of the benches. When all yurts get occupied the place can get busy/noisy. We didn't mind - we listened in for tips.

    Yurts in a fruit tree garden with wifi and electricity, what more could you wish for? Hot water, tasty breakfasts (we've encountered pancakes or fried eggs) and an owner who can give advice about the mountain hikes and trips, arrange transport and so on. Within walking distance to Karakol center for shopping and eating.

    Sometimes a little bit problem with hot water in showers.

    The stay was perfect. The location is on the main street. Both bus stations are about 20 minutes walk. Very good breakfast.The host is very helpful, ready to help with a selection of excursions. He can arrange transport, excursions, tourist guides. I highly recommend.

    The beds are too short.

    The main asset here is the owner. He can help you with preparing and arranging all the trips in the mountains as well as Issyk Kul. He is full of information.
