Central Hostel

Molt bon hostel, net, cuidat i ben atés.

Şəkildə gördüyümüz və bron elədiyimiz otağı bize tehvil vermədilər. Kitaylara satmışdılar otagi. Bize isə deyirdiki belə otaq yoxdu)) bu reklam otağdi)) çox səviyyəsiz reception. Bir sözlə sıfır

市中心的位置，从车站走过来大概15分钟，空调很足，楼下还有咖啡厅，早餐的套餐也不错，屋里很干净，很推荐

This is a modern hostel with a lovely entrance and a bar offering very reasonable prices—perfect for a quick bite without leaving. I stayed in a twin room with an amazing roommate, which made for a very comfortable and restful night. The beds were spacious, the sheets spotless, and the room clean. So, highlights include comfortable beds, good cleanliness, and a dedicated female-only area, which I really appreciated. Overall, I had a very positive experience and would definitely recommend this hostel.

The bathrooms could use some updating, and the kitchen didn’t feel very welcoming, so I preferred using the bar. The common areas are a bit basic, though the bar is cosy and well-priced.

Staff at this hotel are really friend and treat me like a brother. They are really knowledgeable and they guided me with the AutoBus routes and everything.

Excellent location. Amazing restaurant/ cafe attached (very reasonable prices). Sex-segregated dorm / bathroom wings; female dorm was clean and comfortable (mattress, lockers, electrical socket and light, good a/c). Helpful staff at front desk

Walked in on a cleaning woman rifling through a fellow travellers things. Reported to front desk who managed the issue.

I find Sheki as the most charming and cozy town of Azerbaijan. Nature around Sheki is picturesque. It’s my second visit of Sheki and second stay at the Central Hostel. Bus station: I walked 20 minutes from Sheki bus station to the hostel. What is around: Grocery store, cloth shops, ATM/bank, pharmacy, park, taxi, café/restaurants are around the hostel. Sightseeing places: All Sheki sightseeing places are also in a 30-40 minutes of walking distance. My room: I was provided with clean bed sheets and towels in the 4-male dorm room. Each bed has own lamps and shelf. Privacy curtains for beds would be much appreciated. Air conditioner and lockers are in the room. Bed sheets and towels are changed after each traveler’s leave. Kitchen: Hostel kitchen has everything needed for cooking and storing food. Thank you for the electric kettle in the kitchen. Wi-Fi: Wi-Fi worked bad/so-so in the hostel this time compared to last year. It was on and off from time to time. Cleaning: Hostel is very clean as cleaning lady cleans every day. Laundry: I don’t know if hostel provides laundry services as I rinsed my clothes in the shower and hanged to dry in the attic near kitchen. Room pictures match with what I saw in booking.com. Hostel staff is very helpful and customer-oriented. It would be great if they could have a bed to sleep during night time. I see reception guys sit on the chair during night time. They need to have some rest and normal sleep. I can recommend Central Hostel in Sheki.

Hostel needs some investment: Floor between showers and toilets are on different level. One Chinese guy didn’t notice that, tripped and almost hit his head like me last year. I mentioned about this issue last year and recommended to glue colorful stripes in the floor transition section between showers and toilet. But of course, nobody did anything as people keep tripping and falling this year. Privacy curtains in the bunk beds would be much appreciated. Government of Sheki needs to do something with homeless stray dogs in the street. Some of them are aggressive and attacking. I was so scared of walking during evening and night time. I’ve heard a story that dogs bit Indian tourist and he had to get an anti-rabies shot. Why booking.com stopped uploading my pictures? I stopped seeing my pictures in previous trip reviews from different countries.

I spent 3 days in the magnificent Sheki, staying at the Central Hostel. This hostel is a practically new, comfortable, and super clean accomodation. However, the strength of this accommodation lies in its staff, who are always kind, helpful, and capable of assisting travelers with their needs. In particular, Tarlan was always very kind and attentive. And what about Dashkin? Dashkin was incredibly prompt in resolving every type of need, polite, and very well-prepared. If I had to nitpick, I would say there isn't a kitchen where travelers can prepare their own food. However, the Central Cafe inside the hostel offers good and healthy dishes, also suitable for vegetarians. Hello everyone and thank you!
