We stayed at this hostel for 3 days and 2 nights while attending the 2024 Almaty Marathon. The bed was comfortable, its a bunk bed, the facility was clean, and the staff were supportive. The kitchen was spotless, though the toilet didn’t have a bidet. The location is great, near a mall with everything you need, and booking a taxi with Yandex Go was easy.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    Very easy going and budget-friendly. We came back to the same hostel after a 2-day trip to Charyn canyon and Kolsay lakes. Some other travellers we met in the trip stayed also at the same hostel. So all in all it was nice for the atmosphere and the people for good talking and sharing experiences and traveling tips.
