Lena is very kind and the hostel is very clean and comfortable

Arturo Chile

Serene and cozy settings in the residential area close to the city center. Small facility which creates a family home-like atmosphere. オススメです!

Mayumi Japan

Lena is a wonderful person and the perfect host! She took care of us and treated us like family. The hostel is super clean, the beds are so comfortable, the kitchen does not lack anything. Highly recommended and would definitely stay here again!

Chrysanthi Germany

a very nice place in Almaty with a kind and helpful owner. Thank you.

Sophie France

A very clean and looks like a brand new hostel with a family feel to it. People staying in the hostel were all friendly and chatty, we even took a tour to the mountains together. Overall, the vibe was great. There was never a wait for a bathroom or a shower. Breakfast is decent and extremely cheap. The owner is friendly and accommodating. The location is pretty good, close to the center but not quite in the middle of everything. It's a 10 min walk from the central streets deeper into the hood if I may say that. Didn't bother us. Beds are twin size but pretty comfortable.

Petr United States of America

Was very good. Clean. Comfortable and tasty lunch. Administrator she is very good person. Recommend

Жоомарт Kyrgyzstan

Everything is super clean, and it’s quite close to city center. Most important, hostel owner is really nice and helped a lot! You can ask her about everything in Almaty and get useful information (Also the bed is sooo good)❤️

Chia Taiwan

Lena was a very nice and accommodating woman. The house and the bathrooms were very clean. I enjoyed my stay and would definitely recommend this guest house. The breakfast was really good and very filling.

Fred United States of America
