    Nothing - it was great!

    Such a lovely beautiful home with fantastic art! Nice kitchen setup and wonderful host. The location is out of the center but for me, that is a plus. We extended our stay for some time because of the rain, and we were quite cozy and comfortable. Beautiful little garden outside and nice quiet streets to wander.

    About 3 rooms in characterful home with welcoming, relaxed hosts. Comfortable, great kitchen, shower and barhroom. Yes its a 25 minute walk to the centre, but there's a marshrutka stop 20 metres away, so you get the benefit of a quiet neighbourhood and easy access to town. Also good food shops and Victory Park are very close.

    Only one bathroom which is also connected to the shower, but they are in the process of building a second one outside!

    We had a very comfortable stay in the yurt. It is clean and has a traditional yurt feel, with power inside to charge your phones. The host was excellent and spoke great English. He assisted us in booking a stay at a guest house in Altyn Arashyn, right next to the hot springs. We actually stayed twice over the course of our trip. Would definitely recommend :)

    Nothing. All were great 😀

    It was wonderful staying, all were more than I expected! I got why this house has many good reviews after I stayed. The family is very warm hearted people. All places are very clean. Rooms has very good taste, nice atmosphere. Beautiful carpet etc. It's different from hostel. This is the arthouse which is run by good people. Karakol is very good to stay, and also since this house is so great, I supposed to stay 3 nights but extended. Highly recommended to the people who loves calm and cleanliness and beauty.

    We had a great time here! The rooms and shared areas were comfortable, clean and homey. There was also a beautiful decorative lounge area and a nice garden outside. Above all, Nuradin, the host, was super helpful and friendly, giving his recommendations for things to do in Karakol and letting us leave our luggage when we were away on a multi-day trek.
