- Martyna (6/5): - Good value for this price. Very close to main shopping street. There is common kitchen and small patio. Good WiFi connection. Very loud in the evenings, nobody cares that you’re trying to sleep (although maybe it was just my luck, it seems that there was some group of friends that was talking and laughing all the time). Maybe the owner should explain hostel rules at the check-in to avoid such situations. The bathroom was very dirty (spiders, mold) and only one shower for around 20 people, because the other was out of order. It was very difficult to get to the upper capsule, because I’m quite heavy and the ladder is installed in such way that you cannot step on the last bar. The owner didn’t want to give me the lower one and said all are taken although in the evening it turned out there were a few free, but she just didn’t want to make the bed. Electricity outputs are installed very high. So be sure to take a long cable, otherwise you will have to keep your hand up constantly while lying. No lockers to keep your things safe.

- Daniele (2/5): - Peccato, perché la posizione e la tipologia di alloggio è perfetta per chi vuole appoggiarsi a karakol per i trekking.l'hostess è stata gentile, facendoci lasciare gli zaini prima del check in, Il prezzo si è super conveniente ma la pulizia non pervenuta! Basterebbe il minimo per essere pulita.

- Juan (5/5): No me quedaría si tuviera alternativas - Trato y localización Limpieza
- Sandra (5/5): Nicht zu empfehlen - Lage Aufenthaltsbereich und Zimmer sind verbunden, das Zweibettzimmer hat einen Teppichboden und bietet fast nichts zum Hinlegen der Sachen, Fenster sind auch sehr alt, Badezimmer sind nicht sauber und uralt

- J (7/5): - 위치는 시내 한가운데 있어서 접근성이 좋습니다. 침대도 커튼을 치면 개인 캡슐 침대로 편안합니다. 콘센트도 있었구요, 조명도 있었던 것 같네요. 침구도 깨끗했습니다. 화장실이.... 불편하고 지저분했던 것이 큰 단점이네요. 그리고 부엌과 룸이 분리되지 않아 젊은이들이 밤늦게 들어오고, 이야기하고 노는게 다 들립니다. 그래도 어쩔 수 있나요... 가성비를 가장 큰 장점으로 생각해야죠.
- Bar (5/5): - מרכזי יחסית, חללים משותפים לפגוש אנשים מלוכלך מאוד , לא הרגיש שיש מישהו שמתפעל ומתחזק את המקום
- Kimberly (5/5): Not a comfortable stay. - I liked the sleeping cubicle. There are only two toilets for 16 people, and the bathrooms were dirty and had no toilet paper. The kitchen was also dirty, and it’s located right next to the sleeping room with no door in between - so any noise you make in the morning in the kitchen wakes up the people trying to sleep. Not a good set up at all!

- Nalan (4/5): Hiç beğenmedim - Konumu iyiydi internet iyiydi Banyolar temiz değildi çöpler ağzına kadar dolu sadece sabahları çöpler boşaltılıyor temizlik yapılıyor temizlik malzemeleri akşama kadar odaların bulunduğu bölümdeki koltuğun üstünde bırakılıyor check in yapmaya gittiğimde resepsiyonda kimse yoktu arkadaşlarıyla yemeğe gitmişler 10 dk sonra geldiler ilk defa böyle bişey görüyorum 2 çalışanda birlikte gitmişlerdi
- Irina (7/5): - Очень удобные кровати, соседи с другого яруса никак не беспокоят. Очень удобная фишка - двойная кровать для пары. Хостел расположен в хорошем районе, вокруг красивые старинные домики с наличниками и церковь, много магазинов и кафе. Чистота поддерживается кое-как. Задний двор ужасен, столы заляпаны, однажды видели опарыша прямо на столе

- Raquel (7/5): Good value and location, but needs improvement - Great central location and good value for money. The beds are comfortable, spacious, and come with personal lights and sockets. There's a large common area and kitchen, which is nice for relaxing or socializing. The receptionist was helpful, and we were able to pay by card when we arrived. The bathrooms were not always clean and often lacked toilet paper and hand soap. One of the administrators seemed unprofessional, appearing hungover and even vomiting in the shared bathroom. Also, when we extended our stay directly, card payment was no longer accepted.

- Kick (7/5): - De bedden waren erg fijn. De douches en wc’s waren niet hygiënisch.
- Can (5/5): - The smell of the food you cook in the kitchen directly permeates the bedroom because there are no walls or partitions. You can leave at the same time as those sitting at the kitchen lounge and dining table. The entrance door is open, and the kitchen's garden door is open, creating an unsafe environment. Constant noise from the kitchen and living room is very disturbing, day and night. I had to stay here for five days because I was sick. Long-term accommodations are not suitable. Two bathrooms have a toilet and another bathroom with a toilet. When the bathroom and toilet are in use, you cannot go in for other needs. The bathrooms and toilets should be separate.

- Perlie (7/5): You get what you pay for - Nice atmosphere Very hot, bathrooms not the best, no toilet paper

- Agustin (6/5): Good for a night before trekk - The best fron the Hostel it's the location. The room to leave the bags before trekking is a big plus. Due to the affluence and the lack of proper cleaning, the quality of the place is degrading fast. When you have a hostel for 40+ people, you cannot clean just once a day...

- Lucie (10/5): -
- Sara (8/5): - Good position in the center of town and close to two bus stations. The beds were big. The kitchen was well equipped and the atmosphere was friendly. The floor and bathrooms weren't very clean.
- Karolina (10/5): - Very clean and comfortable place :) All was good!
- Jan (7/5): - nice kitchen and shared space, locality and price were also great😊😁 blinking lights in our room, quite messy bathroom and unfriendly staff
- Lukáš (7/5): -
- Mari (6/5): Para una noche no está mal... - La ubicación y la facilidad para hacer el checkin. Cuando llegué el suelo estaba bastante sucio, no daba buena impresión. Al regresar por la noche había chicas limpiando pero hacían mucho ruido y ya era hora de descansar...
Cualquiera puede acceder a la habitación desde la calle. De hecho, los trabajadores de una obra justo al lado entraban al baño que hay frente a recepción (solo para ellos).

- ANDREI (10/5): - Нормальный хостел, бюджетный, находится в 5 минутах ходьбы от центра. Есть всё, что нужно для того, чтобы провести здесь несколько ночей. Другие постояльцы в основном европейцы.
- Thibault (7/5): Fijn personeel en prima locatie van het hostel. Badkamers kunnen beter - Het personeel was super vriendelijk en behulpzaam. De badkamers hadden wat netter gekund

- Jeanine Gunst (6/5): - The beds were really comfortable, we had a great night of sleep The staff isn’t really present, only some cleaning ladies that come once a day. We were locked in in the morning, luckily we found our own way out through the private doors. The host didn’t answer until 18:00 and said he/she was out of the country so it was out of their hands… I am glad we did some exploring.
It also wasn’t the cleanest hostel I’ve ever seen.
Nonetheless, comfortable beds and quite cheap, so I’d still recommend.
- Graham (4/5): Grumpy staff. Bad smell. Quite unclean but decent value I guess - Good location Teenage girl running the place was very grumpy, walked around on speakerphone as people were sleeping, was in the beds watching tiktoks full volume. Not sure why she was running the place. Bathroom was very dirty. Bad smell. Kitchen was basically in the sleeping space so was loud and smelly.
- Ha My (3/5): Very cheap hostel and okay for a one night stay. We’ve had a private room which wasn’t very good, but we passed by the s - The kitchen was spacey and well equipped. It was very cheap and in the right end of time if you want to go to Altyn Arashan. Our room smelled like mold. The light was flickering. The first toilet we checked out was filled with a huge amount of shit, the toilet bowl was more brown than white. The shower, other toilets, kitchen were not clean either.
- Bartra Carrasco (7/5): -
- Kian Sing (8/5): -
- Louise (4/5): - Curtains on the beds Bathrooms weren't clean. The kitchen and the capsules were in the same room so couls be a bit noisy
- val Gavin (10/5): - I always like to sleep in a capsule. The staffs are helpful. Aliya and her sister always willing to help. They're also fun to talk to. The noise from the gym next door.
- Pedro A P (1/5): - The location. Only. The hostel was run by two (literal) 17 year old girls who were partying all night.
I mean, I'm used to hostels and I can accept the guests being very loud and even rude, but from the hosts it is unacceptable.
Not only they kept screaming and banging doors until well after 3AM but also when it was about 3:30AM one of them straight up opened the curtains of my capsule with their phone with the flash turned on right in my face.
Did I mentioned they were also very rude?
I don't think I ever left a bad review but for this one I just had to.

- Margaux (3/5): Vous trouverez mieux ailleurs - L’emplacement Le personnel n’est pas du tout aimable, d’aucun conseil! Le matin la dame ne nous a pas calculé pour rendre les clés alors qu’elle voyait bien qu’on attendait
Il n’y a que deux douches avec les Toilettes à l’intérieur pour au moins 20 lits
La salle de bain est vraiment salle, pas de papiers toilettes dans les toilettes …
- Ashcroft (7/5): - Very comfortable, excellent location and good value for money The two young women running the hostel were a little unprofessional, bringing in (presumably) their boyfriends, and all four of them sitting together in one capsule. It also could have been cleaner, especially the bathrooms.
- Morgan (8/5): A must for going to Karakol - Property is in excellent location, close to shops, church. The bed was very comfortable, especially after the Sal-Kul trek, the ladies who run the hostel speak excellent english, very nice and very helpful
- Morgan (8/5): A great place after a long couple days of trekking - The property is in an excellent location, beds are very comfortable, the two sisters who run the hostel speak perfect english, are very helpful and nice.
The hostel is perfect especially after doing the Ala-Kul Lake. Highly recommend
- MARILYN (4/5): - The bed was comfortable and we got clean linens. Unfortunately the bathroom, particularly the shower, was disgustingly filthy. The girls who worked here were usually unavailable, couldn't help us with any information, and worst of all was they layed on the dorm beds that were not in use, in their street clothes, either when there were already clean sheets on the bed, or with no sheets on the bed. On Friday afternoon there were 3 local young men and another local young woman, and they all went into a large double bed with no sheets on it, in our dorm room, and drew the curtains at the end of the bed shut... It was grossly inappropriate. The location was convenient, near the wooden Orthodox church.

Чистота и порядок в хостеле только благодаря ей. Спасибо. мне не понравилась некая назойливость со стороны волонтера.

- Małgorzata (9/5): Miły i przyjemny hostel. - Bardzo przyjemny nowy, niedawno oddany do użytku hostel, w centrum miasteczka Karakoł. Bardzo wygodne i duże łóżka zarówno jedno jak i dwuosobowe. Bardo czysto. Wspólna kuchnia z wyposażeniem, lodówka, Na miejscu dwie łazienki i dwie dodatkowe toalety. Blisko do sklepów, barów, restauracji, a nawet na lokalny bazar. Dostępny duży parking. Po przeciwnej stronie ulicy znajduje się jedna z największych atrakcji miasta - Sobór Świętej Trójcy, przepięknie w nocy oświetlony.
- Alexander (10/5): - sehr nettes und freundliches Personal, gute Ausstattung, Küche vorhanden, gute Informationen für Ausflüge Aufenthaltsraum und Schlafraum sind räumlich nicht richtig getrennt, könnte laut werden

- Ivan (10/5): - Администратор умничка! Капсулы для сна комфортные, с хорошими матрасами. В помещении чисто.
Пожелание к владельцам: скоро начнётся зимний сезон, а места чтобы повесить верхнею одежду и высушить вещи к сожалению нет, было бы не плохо выделить место для этого. И возможно стоит отделить кухню дверьми, для большего комфорта, да в спальную зону не будет попадать солнечный свет, но думаю вы что нибудь придумаете!

- Kovacic (8/5): - Vzdušje v hostlu je prijetno. Večina so gostje mladi popotniki, ki so v Karakolu zaradi pohoda na Ala-kul jezero. Postelje so udobne. V hostlu je kuhinja in dve kopalnici. Motilo me je da je spalni prostor povezan z kuhinjo. To pomeni, da v spalnici pozno gori luč in je tudi precej glasno. Zato so čepki obvezni. :)
- Michał (9/5): - Fajny hostel, nowy. Była możliwość zostawienia bagażu w czasie naszego trekkingu w górach. Do tego dobrze wyposażona kuchnia, zasłony przy łóżkach, dwie łazienki, spokojna okolica. Przez to, że sypialnia i pokój jedzeniowy były ze sobą połączone, trochę ewentualna krzątanina w kuchni wieczorem może przeszkadzać co bardziej wyczulonym gościom. Dla nas było okej.
- Somayeh (1/5): -
- Dastan (5/5): - Удобное месторасположение Не очень чисто, санузлы забитые, ночью было прохладно в номере

- SENAM (9/5): -
- Lindsey (6/5): Disappointing - The capsules themselves are pretty comfortable and offered privacy when the curtain was closed. There were plugs and a private light in the capsule.
Laundry is cheap.
The location is excellent. The open-plan layout of the hostel is pretty awful. Having no partition between the kitchen and capsule area means it's incredibly noisy when there are inconsiderate people staying.
Cleanliness is also poor. The sheets and bedding are clean but the little shelf at the back of the Capsule was gross. I don't think it had ever been cleaned.
The toilet/shower definitely doesn't get cleaned enough for the amount of people staying at the hostel. Never enough toilet paper provided.
The young girl working there is kind but severely overworked I'd say. They need more staff to be able to manage the hostel better.
- Ramandeep Singh (8/5): - I like location and kitchen stuff, comfortable bed
- Seong (10/5): -
- MoJo (5/5): Leider überbewertet - Die Doppel-Kapsel war sehr breit. Man hatte genug Platz und konnte gemütlich schlafen. Es ist kein typisches Backpacker Hostel, in dem man Tipps und Hilfe von dem Personal erwarten kann. Auf Fragen hat man meist einsilbige Antworten bekommen. Allgemein wirkte das Personal unmotiviert. Geputzt wurde ein mal täglich oberflächlich. Beim Klopapier wurde leider gespart. Leider gab es nur eine funktionierende Dusche und zwei Toiletten. Schließfächer sind nützlich, leider war nur noch die Hälfte abschließbar. Im Stockwerk darüber sind täglich Sportkurse, weshalb es dann laut poltert. Der Hinterhof war ziemlich verwahrlost.

- Seong (10/5): - Please stick signboard for silence hours
- Justin (10/5): Clean, friendly, helpful - The hostel was clean and conveniently located. It is a good base for travelling around Karakol. The lady was very helpful, friendly and welcoming. We were able to do laundry here and store excess gear whilst doing the Ak Suu traverse.
- Charles (7/5): - Lit avec des rideaux Pas de séparation entre la chambre et la pièce à vivre (cuisine). Donc parfois bruyant, ou difficile de parler avec les autres voyageurs
- Matias Ezequiel (9/5): Muy bueno - cama amplia y cómoda, muy buena ubicación
- salih (10/5): -
- Sabina (10/5): Круто было бы если сделали бы мужской женский туалет отдельно и душевой тоже. - Всё понравилось постельное бельё впрямь блестит ✨ Немного не удобно это кухня ночью когда все спят а тебе не спится посидеть что-нибудь выпить по хрустит не получится. Некоторые гости были свиньями почему потому в душевой не убирались после себя волос куча🤮Воду на унитазе не спускали 🤮
