Guest Reviews

• Stupin (8/5): -
• Godelieve (9/5): Séjour très agréable à Yellow fox - La gentillesse de Mara qui tient la guesthouse. C'est une femme courageuse et très attachante. Nous avons eu une belle chambre spacieuse. La situation est également idéale. Et qualité/prix imbattable. Merci Mara.
• Andrea (6/5): -
• Rafał (10/5): -
• Лариса (10/5): - Чистота, удобное расположение. Хозяйка была очень внимательная. Было впечатление,что я нахожусь у своих родственников.Номер соответствовал описанию. Заселение прошло быстро.
• Abel (9/5): Very good and kind - The manager she was very helpful and kind.
• Johanna Maria (10/5): - Sehr nette Gastgeber
• Levon (10/5): - Big and cheap private room, great location. The owner Mara is very kind and present for any questions. There is only 1 shower, although the hostel is small so you may not have to wait.
• Nachtergaele (10/5): - Hostel très bien situé dans le centre de Erevan. Hôtes très accueillants
• Luis (10/5): 10/10 - Que familia tan atenta, Mara es un persona maravillosa. Estaba tratando de agradar siempre y de echar una mano en lo que chaval podia. Se esmeraba enormemente en que todo estuviese limpio. No paraba de trabajar y por eso va tan bien el hostel. La gente tambien hizo mucho, lo pasamos muy bien y conocimos a muchas personas. Dias inolvidables en Yerevan
• Apoorva (5/5): Not for me - 1. The location is really good. 2. The hostess, Mara, is really sweet and kind. 1. I stayed in the 8 bed mixed dorm room which was the only dorm available to book. It was smelly. There are no shelves or lockers to put your stuff. There was stuff everywhere. It was very messy. 2. There are no curtains on the beds. 3. One shower for the entire facility. 4. There is no common area. The kitchen also is the common area but you can smoke in the kitchen, so the entire kitchen area which was the basement/ ground floor was filled with cigarette smell. I couldn’t even stay there to drink coffee. 5. It really didn’t have a hostel environment. I stayed 2 nights and moved to a different hostel. I couldn’t come back to the hostel before it was time to sleep, because there’s literally no place to just hang out other than your bed if you don’t like cigarette smoke.
• Jonathan (8/5): -
• Arsenij (10/5): - Все отлично, спасибо!
• Jie (10/5): -
• Kachan (10/5): Рекомендую :) - Очень приятный персонал и хорошая локация хостела возле центра :) Рекомендую!
• Mohammad (7/5): -
• ABDUL MAJEED (7/5): good but.......not ok - location, kitchen, staff, room only one toilet in the third floor and only one toilet and one shower in the ground floor. Using the kitchen for smoking also made it difficult.
• Mariashie (8/5): -
• Savva (8/5): Very good -
• Izabela (10/5): Perfect hostel to rest and explore Yerevan - The hosts were very kind and helpful, the property it’s an ideal location for exploring Yerevan. The rooms were clean, kitchen well-equipped, the bed comfortable.
• Nicolás (10/5): Exceptional - The host is amazing! The woman showed me the whole hostel and gave me amenities and clean bed sheets and towels. Beds are comfortable and there’s a lot of space in the rooms and air conditioning. The kitchen is fully equipped and the iron is so modern and useful. There’s only one shower, but fortunately I’ve never had to wait.
• Lou (10/5): Excellent. The hosts are very welcoming and accommodating. Will definitely go back here. 🩵 - The location was very good. Near a relaxing park that you can go to every afternoon. It’s also surrounded by restos and the tourist spots are walkable (republic square, vernissage ). It was quiet and calm. They also have a balcony where you can have your “me-time” or morning meditation, or just observing people and clouds. I really loved this place. It was only that you have to go down to first floor for taking a shower. Overall, everything was great.
• Anastasiia (10/5): Xozy and comfy stay in a coty heart - I am really happy with my stay, staff was extremely nice, place is (really) clean, very tidy and quiet Lots of shops and places to visit nearby Poor weather, I've had only 1 day to visit
• Amir (10/5): Exceptional - It was very good, the treatment was very good, very clean and orderly.. location and access very good.. overall I was satisfied
• Moddaa (9/5): Superb -
• Luna (9/5): Superb - The hostel was very clean and the staff went out of their way to make the guests feel comfortable. There was a big kitchen so we could cook. The only issue was that there’s no wifi in the kitchen and the kitchen basically is the only “common area” in the hostel. Also, the wifi worked in other areas of the hostel but it wasn’t great.
• Ori (10/5): Exceptional -
• Ivan (10/5): Ultimate armenian hospitality - Good location, very nice and friendly hostess, clean showers (!), clean rooms with all the necessities Amazing for the price, thank you!
• Linda (7/5): Good - Very good location, nice staff (family owned business) I booked a double private room for myself, it was located on the thirds floor and the shower was in the ground floor (only the toilet was also on the third floor). The bed was very uncomfortable (I could feel the springs). No real common areas to sit and socialize (which is the reason why I book hostels when I travel solo).
• Pouya (10/5): Highly recommended - So convenient and accessible. Warm and friendly atmosphere. Clean and comfortable beds. Nice staff I guess It would be way better if there were more closets in the rooms so that each guest could have their own locker inside the room instead of downstairs.
• Jeison (9/5): Hostel located within walking distance of Yerevan's parks - The hostel is located in a very nice area of Yerevan. You can walk to the city center and reach many parks in a few minutes. It was perfect for our 3-day stay. The hostel is clean and the staff did the best to communicate with us even though there was a language barrier. There is only one shower in the bottom floor.
• Jake (10/5): Exceptional -
• Felipe (7/5): Good -
• Kim (10/5): Exceptional - They will work tirelessly for you. If you need anything, they will help you in any way possible and all the hostel staff do.
• Jakub (9/5): Its a cheap, classic hostel in the middle of the capital. Rooms are cozy and the house is well-kept. - The location of the hostel is beyond perfect. Everything is close and nearby. The air conditioning in the rooms during the summer is really a lifesaver, believe me. Hostel has nice rooftop, where you can dry your clothes or just chill. Washing machine and a shower can be used. In the kitchen you can cook for yourself (pan, toaster, microwave). Everything was good and well-kept. But its a bit hard to communicate with the staff, since they speak only Armenian and Russian. If you speak Russian a bit you will be fine, but take a translator with you, if you dont speak Russian/Armenian.
• Valdemar (9/5): Superb - Family owned hostel. They are very friendly and helpful! There's no living are to meet people
• Vladislav (10/5): Exceptional - Everything was like at home, friendly and positive staff. Clean and quiet. Thank you 👍
• Hamidreza (9/5): It's worth it - Staff was so kind
• Mondanizadeh (9/5): Superb -
• Jon-luc (8/5): Good value for money and lovely helpful staff, close to the city but away from the noise. Unfortunately very hot weather - Great location, very central to the city. The staff were so lovely and helpful and roof top was a nice place to chill. No aircon, just a fan which was fine but during our stay it was very hot trying to sleep.
• Sajeev (10/5): Exceptional -
• Nahla (9/5): Superb - Good location, nice staff and clean The only thing that I didn't like was that the toilet and the shower are not in the same floor of the dorms
• Chriszhuu (9/5): Superb - family oriented hostel, the whole staffs(families) are very friendly, provide me room change when there was snoring guy in the night in winter time the rooms abit cold with only air conditioning working, according to my expereicnes, it would be very nice to stay in summertime
• Alireza (10/5): Exceptional - I would like to appreciate dear Ms. Mara kindness and hospitality. I was there with my wife for Norouz vacation, everthing was great . Hospitality of dear Ms. Mara was very well . The hostel was in the heart of Yerevan. I high recommend for people who wants to enjoy their trip to settele in lovely Yellow Fox.
• Amne (10/5): Exceptional - Nice staff and owner, they made sure that i was comfortable during my stay..
• Gevork (10/5): Exceptional - Excellent location, owner of the place is very nice, helpful and friendly! Thanks a lot for those good times! Definitely wouldn't mind to stay once more! Everything was perfect!
• Anonymous (10/5): Mara is an amazing person - The place is very good. An excellent location in the city center, in addition to the staff being very good in all respects Excellent service, very strong wifi, excellent location, excellent staff
• Zhenya (5/5): I really wish the hostel team much luck. As already mentioned, I see you try. But it still marginal - Generally I'm mostly disappointed from the stay, but I should stress that despite lack of comfort and facilities the staff and the owner (an old lady) are kind-hearted and hospitable (at least in on their own way). That's the reason why I've evaluated the stay as intermediate, since I see that the hostel staff despite the lack of professional service is making their best (again, at least in on their own way). The location is also good. The room itself is quite ok – looks as on the photos from the other reviews. – First of all is the shower. No one has mentioned it here before, but the shower is located on the ground floor, almost in front of the street door & reception desk. Me living on the 2d flood had to go up- and downstairs through the whole building hoping no one enters hostel from the street after I got out of the shower. – Moreover, the shower cabin hat even no doors. Wth? I've taken the shower one time and definitely won't try to make it ones again. – The general impression which consists of many small things: a cheap, quite old and low service place. Lack of the shelves in the toilet to put the toothpaste, old tiles, cheap bed clothing , strange smell etc. No special place to store the luggage (lockers are only for backpacks and my suitcase stood half a day just near the entrance door...). Even for a hostel this altogether was too much. – Broken socket near the bed. Well, the staff has friendly brought a power socket extension, but stepping over the cable was quire adventurous. – Almost no light in the room – the window is too small. – The wifi was regularly poor and sometimes disappeared at all (I was on the 2d floor). – Despite the kindness and hospitality it’s hard to say that the service was professional – even comparable to a hostel manner/expectations. – For the booking-rating 8,9 and 34 Euro per night in a cheap country I find much overestimated.
• Vaganture (3/5): Sad memories - Central in downtown and clean. The language barrier was maybe the main issue, as the staff didn't speak English and wasn't familiar with translation apps. I contracted a painful food poisoning on my first day in Armenia and was bound to the hostel bed for 3 nights. I felt very unwelcome and unwanted during my stay, and was just randomly told what to do and not do.

• Semen (10/5): Exceptional -

• Cathy (1/5): A lot !!! A lot of Bedbugs. Theft accident in the hostel. - I want to put on more and more pictures what I happened this hostel . unfortunately.. I can post only 4 pictures into booking.com review.... "The owner request to guests to write review before check out !! " I paid for 6 nights 7days with a card in advance, but for 2 nights, I got a refund of 7000 excluding the card communication line. when I got a refund the host requested me to write a hostel review before checking out. There was a theft incident at the hostel on the first day. The host provided one free night to the guests who had items stolen, which unfortunately included me. On the second day of my stay, I had severe itchy and swollen skin. So i politely and quietly invited the host into the room to discuss the bed bugs issue. The host denied that the hostel had a bed bug infestation. She said I had some kind of allergic reaction to food . So myself and other guests brought an electronic mosquito coil into the room. Bed bugs immediately appeared in the end of 3 of the 6 beds and the guests were al bitten. There was only one fan even in the 36-38 degree weather
• Kevin (8/5): Very good - Great location. Good mattress. Pretty quiet for being in middle of city. One toilet. Place was not very full so no waiting experienced by me.
• Vitobey (1/5): Bad - nothing! Attention: BED BUGS i have reserved this hostel based on reviews, but this hostel is horrible they have BED BUGS! bed bugs bites me thousands times. Super dirty, bathroom and rooms are super dirty. bed sheets were dirty , i asked them to give me clean one they just said our washing machine is not working. if you want to waste your money then go to this hostel. THEY ARE SCAMMERS not recommend at all
• Vitobey (8/5): Very good -
• Rocio (9/5): Very good - Really good place. The owner and the staff are very nice and helpful. The owner is always taking care of the place and the guests. The kitchen was very clean and the room was good.
• Armen_z (10/5): Exceptional - Mara will make your stay in Armenia unforgettable.
• Abe (10/5): Super Recommended Inns!!! - The host is very friendly and kind. He always took care of me so that I could feel comfortable. It's very clean because it cleans me frequently. Especially the shower room was cleaned every time someone used it, and it was always clean and comfortable to use. The kitchen was also large and easy to use. If I had to say, it would have been even better if I could use Wifi in the kitchen.
• 'j (7/5): Good - Good location and kind family No common area at all. No ac. 1 bathroom and 1 shower for the whole hostel
• Eskandari (10/5): Exceptional - The location of the hostel is in the center of the city and next to a very beautiful park with great cafes and restaurants. The staff are very kind. During our stay at the hostel, we met many people from different countries such as Japan, China, Iran, Belgium and Russia. The topic was very memorable and valuable, we talked for hours with a friend from Belgium named Chris Vanderhoydenok. very good
• Javad (10/5): One of the best Hostels In Yerevan - Super clean, staff and management are so friendly and helpful, location the best in downtown, close to everything. Highly recommended. Everything was prefect :)
• John (9/5): Superb -
