Town Yard Hostel

Amazing location, the bedroom and the bathroom are very clean and tidy. A few mins walk to the monastery and Seoul street, with many grocery stores nearby. It’s a small family-run guesthouse that feels very cozy. The guesthouse also organizes tours and we did two tours 1-Karakorum, Mini-Gobi, Khustai, and 2- Chinggis Khan status, Terelj national park with Dugeree. During the tours, we also stayed with a very kind nomadic family in a Ger. The tours are very well-organized, feel authentic and Dugeree speaks very good English. The tours are also reasonably priced, especially comparing to tour agencies we asked before coming to Mongolia. Thank you Dugeree for such an unforgettable Mongolia experience!

There was no breakfast when we stayed there, but that was not an issue for us as there are a lot of grocery stores and restaurant nearby.

The twin room is peaceful and relaxing, the common area is big snd furnished

The bed is hard, the toilet us a but uncomfortable and there's not much hot water

Well situated close to tourist attractions and bus routes to anywhere in the city. Immaculately clean, laundry service available..The owner and her husband are extremely helpful and will assist in finding tours or onward travel. Luggage storage too.

Nothing

The location in proximity to the grounds of a beautiful Buddhist monastery is nice. Walk to the center takes around 30 minutes. It should be noted that the hostel is sort of in a ger district. The airport tranfer was handy and worked well.

The kitchen is very poorly equipped, with one cooking plate for 20(?) people, and otherwise few and old utensils. It was stated that breakfast could be preordered, but that service was not available when we were there. We had a room with a private bathroom, but there is no sink, which is impractical. Rooms are very small and not very soundproof. There was laundry service for a fair fee, but some laundry got mixed up with other people‘s laundry, and I don’t revommend having clothes washed that need sensitive handling. This was our first stay at a hostel, which we chose for community and to meet other travellers, but we got the impression that the poorly equipped and non-cozy common area does not foster a good social environment. This experience is of course only a snapshot from during our stay, but it is what we experienced. We found a beautiful, central apartment for our second stay in Ulaanbaatar for only slighly more money.
