Nothing

The authenticity of the place has been truly remarkable. Don't expect luxury, however the facilities are ok; more importantly the quality of the treatment of the owner to his guests is excellent, and the atmosphere vibes have made my staying there so comfortable "le gustan las telenovelas, Victoria Rufo, mariachi", unexpectly nice to hear in that part of the world. Delicious breakfast and tea is prepared quite early, I highly appreciated it,señor! Location is well connected by masruthka or on food (to autovotzal around 3km, supermarket globus around 2km). Chill areas to walk around safely or have meals-drinks-meeting friendly locals and other fellas travelers travelers. Genial,that I'd definitely return to this place if traveling in karakol.

Spent a great time here. The host is very friendly and was extremely helpful in organising my hiking trip to the mountains. Everything is clean, breakfast simple but good and there are nice outside areas to sit. I highly recommend, the value for money is exceptional

Very nice host and everything was very organised and clean. All amenities that you need and we were allowed to put our bikes safe inside.

We stayed a few nights at that place and it was great. There is no hostel's name in front of the door and the first part in under renovation, but do not hesitate to pass the door, The terrasse behind the house is cozy and nice, to relax or have breakfast in the morning. The room was cosy and tidy, the bathroom was clean with hot water shower. The manager adapts to your schedule for breakfast, if you go trekking, you can also take breakfast at 6 am, and that's very convenient. Also, he kept our bags during the duration of our trek at no cost. We booked the nights before and after at his place :) The manager built everything by himself and is very involved in responding to his guests' needs. Nice place to stay, in a quieter area that in the city center, and not far from the main points of interests. We recommend it.

Not much to complain about, really. All I can think is that a couple of times the power went out while they were doing work, but that still wouldn't put me off staying here again.

The owner is very friendly and welcoming and goes out of his way to help his guests. This place has a very relaxed atmosphere and is a great place to meet people. If you come to Karakol this is the place you should stay.

The owner is the nicest person, he was super helpful and accommodating. The breakfast was tasty and hearty. Perfect place to stay in Karakol before a hike.

They were doing a bit of work to improve the hostel when I was here, it's about a 20 minute walk from the main town.

The place was great to stay for a few nights. The owner was great and very friendly, and gave me all the information on where I wanted to go. The free breakfast was great.

It was the best hotel! The owner is friendly and like a guest's father. We planned to stay for 3 nights, but it was so comfortable that we ended up staying for a week. I was surprised at the many handmade items that the owner put a lot of effort into, such as the house, beds, and bathrooms. This hotel is constantly being updated! Also, if you request and pay an additional fee, they will make a shashlik barbecue or a traditional beshbarmak in a big pot in the garden. It was super delicious and a great experience! When we stayed there, a lot of people happened to gather at the table, and it became a banquet with people from France, England, Italy, Spain, Kyrgyzstan, and Japan. There was singing and dancing, and it was fun! I was happy to be able to get along with the other guests staying there. My 5-year-old daughter was happy that there were many toys and the park was nearby. When it was a little cold, they even lent my daughter some warm children's clothes. I think he is busy because it is a popular inn, but he always takes care of my children. As expected of a father of 5! I would like to thank Jazbek and his children for the heartfelt and warm breakfast, the environment, and their consideration for various things. I'd love to come back when my daughter gets older!

Everything, we felt welcome from the start and the host helped us with everything. He makes amazing breakfast and he even helped us booking another accommodation after we came back from hiking since he was unfortunately booked out that night. Would love to come and stay here again. Thank you for everything and your kindness!

The room was comfortable for us during our stay in Karakol. It’s located at the back of Zhazibek’s house near the centre of town. He is very kind and welcoming host - helped to organise transport and activities! Looking forward to seeing him again one day :)

Only one bathroom (toilet and shower in the same room) tor 8 people, so sometimes had to wait which could be a bit difficult in the morning when leaving early.

Big private room and nice breakfast included. Super friendly host and reasonable price to do laundry. Also stored our luggage whilst we were hiking. Nice garden area to hangout in too.

Stayed in August 2024

Having another bathroom or at least toilet can help. Though it never got too crowded.

I stayed three nights in the yurt. It is on the rustic side- has electricity, not a heater or carpets, although there are enough blankets to feel warm. Capacity is 4 people. The owner is a friendly and helpful man, he makes some tasty soups for breakfast.

Stayed in August 2024

The garden is beautiful, with lots of fruit trees and shade. The yurt is really cosy, spacious with traditional decorations. The bathroom is big with a great shower which is kept very clean. You can do your washing and keep bags at the property when you leave for a hiking trip. The homemade breakfast is delicious and different each day! Despite all this, the best thing is definitely Jasbek’s hospitality, he is very kind, friendly and knowledgeable. I have been back three times already in the same trip!

It's a good place to stay because it's clean and there's plenty of space, the common area is outside and it's quite comfortable.

The toile is only 1 but I Love the place I want to go back.

I like the place very cozy and the owner of the hostel is very hospitable and caring to all the guests.

Nothing!

We loved our stay at waterfall in the yard. It is excellent value for money, only a short walk to town and very close to the bus stop to get to the beginning of the Ala Kul Hike. Jezbek was an excellent host, he cooked is a different breakfast every day and we could eat fresh cherries from the tree. He even helped us organise a day tour to seven bulls, buskoon waterfall etc. with a local driver for a really great price! (way better than what is advertised at other hostels)

The owner was very helpful and he is also opened to talk about kyrgyz culture and history.

Stayed in July 2024

This was absolutely our favortie stay in Kyrgyzstan. The host is a legend!!! He will go out of his way to help. He arranged horse riding for the Ala Kul Trek for us and made sure everything was going right. He also took us to the Cattle Market and even helped some other guests to buy horses and cooked a traditional dinner for everyone. It is also a great place to meet fellow travelers. The accomodation is simple but it was a great experience and we for sure will remember this place.

I stayed at the hostel for 3 weeks! I really liked the vibe of the place. The owner, Jazbek, is an amazing and hospitable guy who will go out of his way to make you feel comfortable. He provides breakfast in the morning - I would say he is a master of soups, I loved them! There is a sitting area where all the travelers meet and hang out. In this way I met so many people and made some friends. I got to stay in the dorm (yurts) and in a private room - all these options are comfortable and clean. The only thing is that everyone has to use one bathroom which can get pretty busy in the morning. Overall, I would definitely recommend staying here if you wanna meet people and feel like home🙂
