8 / 10Excellent·Sep 2026
It is a good place to socialize
The shower area could be improved
9 / 10Outstanding·Sep 2026
One of the most fun hostels I’ve stayed at in Central Asia. It has a very social and relaxed vibe.
There are only 3 toilets and 3 showers for a lot of guests
7 / 10Good·May 2026
The social aspect of this hostel is stellar, the facilities are pretty good too. The location is not too far from good facilities also.
The staff came across quite rude sometimes. Whenever I would ask for something they would make it seem like a huge burden. The rooms were okay, however the beds were very uncomfortable.
5 / 10·Aug 2026
The property does a have social vibe that’s pretty much unfindable in the rest of Central Asia. Nice court yard where people hang out.
The hotel is dirty and uncomfortable, big rooms with no privacy curtains, our room didn’t even have a door so despite an air conditioner it was always boiling. Bathrooms were also bad, showers were dirty with mould and chewing gum stuck to them. The hostel is pretty much sold out through the summer and is obviously popular why the owners don’t reinvest to make there offering better I have no idea.
