Guest Reviews
- Jamal (1/5): -
- Vladislav (3/5): Хотя бы замки установите! А лучше двери поменяйте! - Отличное расположение в самом центре города. В пешей доступности топовые рестораны, кафе и достопримечательности. Ну начать можно с того, что мы списались с владельцем и нам с супругой сказали мы можем приехать и въехать, чуть обождав уборку номера. Было 10 утра как мы приехали. Мы с сумка приезжаем, а нам говорят ну подождать до 12 надо, въезд же с 12. Хорошо рядом парк, мы пошли и 2 часа гуляли с СУМКАМИ в парке. В 12 звоним и пишем куда можно ли просто оставить сумки и уехать, а в ответ «Номер не готов». В итоге когда можно было селится, оказалось номер на фото не соответствует и свободен лишь чулан под лестницей переоборудованный под номер… ну думаем пусть так, нам все равно на 2 ночи, а днями нас не будет. И ради правды нам действительно было все равно на сам номер, есть где спать и ладно. НО тут начался самый ужас. Понятное дело хостел и душ с туалетом общий. Вот только в мужском душе стоят стиральные машинки и замков на дверях нет. Стоишь ты значит моешься за шторкой, а тут другая постоялица просто заходит стираться. Искра, буря, безумие и неловкие «Ой». Переходим в туалет. В него идет стеклянная дверь закрашенная краской. Спасибо что закрасили. Но опять же без замка. Значит сиди и держи двери руками. А на другом этаже если отдельный женский туалет. И даже с замком, но дверь тоже стеклянная и не закрашена))
За эту цену и предварительном бронировании есть просто десятки мест в сотни раз лучше!!! Мы были в майские и решили на пару ночей остаться дополнительно. Вот и попали к ним из за ажиотажа и заполненности других отелей
- khatuna (3/5): I will never stay there - Host was just liar
- Jaye (3/5): Would not stay again - Location is good - but then the the centre of Yerevan is rather small and walkable, so any place there will do. They may have one or two decent rooms but do not expect to get one of these. There is better value for money to be had in the city. I got a practically windowless room under the noisy internal stairs and right next to the "reception counter" where the guys made a huge racket all day. Unclean sheets. Had a chance to peek into the dorm: "apocalyptic" may be a good word to describe it.
- Полина (2/5): Good location, but poor comfort, noise insulation, and facilities made the stay disappointing. - Convenient location. The cleaning lady Asmik was very kind and friendly. The room was extremely small, almost capsule-sized, and did not feel like good value for 9000 AMD per night. The hostel was very cold: neither the air conditioner nor the heating worked, and the blankets were extremely thin. Staff initially refused to provide an extra blanket and behaved rudely before eventually giving us one. There was only one duvet cover for two guests.
Payment is accepted in cash only, which should be communicated in advance. Wi-Fi barely works and is often impossible to connect to.
The walls are extremely thin — you can hear even small noises like people brushing their teeth in nearby rooms. Guests were noisy from around 5 a.m., and staff did nothing to address it. Cleaning staff also began work around 8 a.m. and spoke loudly in the hallways, making it difficult to sleep.
The kitchen facilities were poor: not enough mugs, no oil or salt in the shared kitchen, only two of four burners worked, and all frying pans had badly damaged non-stick coating. The kitchen is tiny, and the dining table is placed in the hallway.
The hostel is on the fifth floor without an elevator, making luggage difficult to carry upstairs. When we struggled with our suitcases, the staff member joked instead of helping.
The women’s toilet is combined with the shower and is often occupied, making it difficult to access quickly.
- Ana-Maria (8/5): - Mi-a plăcut că este bine amplasat , că există locuri de relaxare și o bucătărie , este apa fierbinte. Este necesară o curățenie generală mai temeinică,lenjeriile de pat mai calitative .
- Katerina (7/5): - Расположение - самый центр города. Навигация до места от администратора отеля онлайн через вотсап. Стоимость со скидкой. Это фактически квартира на 4м этаже, из нескольких комнат, каждая сдаётся отдельно. Санузел очень тесный, с микрораковиной, с болтающимся краном. В квартире одновременно не менее 8 человек в разных комнатах. Деньги нужно было отдать женщине, похожей на бомжа. В комнате было очень тесно, мигала лампа, неизвестно насколько чистое постельное белье, я спала в одежде. Было холодно ( отопление от кондиционера, но у женщины бомжа спрашивать про пульт от него я не решилась ). Слышимость отличная, за стенкой - холл, слышно все звуки абсолютно.
- Night (10/5): -
- Mousa (7/5): -
- Mohammad Arif (5/5): -
- Hrag (10/5): - Fantastic and comfortable space with great amenities. Would definitely come again.
- Afzali (3/5): - Have a friendly behavior
The rooms were clean
The rooms were not cooler
- Huang (7/5): - 位置很中心 可能预定的时候没注意,房间没洗手间,洗澡上个厕所都得下楼,很不方便
- Alexander (8/5): -
- Marian (9/5): - Safe environment, pretty clean and comfortable, lovely host, best location in central, It’s like your own home It’s on 4th floor without elevator.
- Iris (2/5): Vreselijk - Locatie was goed De bedden waren vreselijk, eentje was er zelfs een stuk uit ingezakt. De communicatie van de eigenaar was agressief en dwingend. Hij was bijna weggelopen zonder ons de kamer te tonen en we moesten betalen zonder deze eerst te zien. Voor de rest van het verblijf geen personeel meer gezien. Je moet eerst door een soort kraakpand hal. De airconditioning mankeerde een afstandsbediening waardoor die enkel heel koud kon. Het laken was veel te klein voor twee personen. Er waren slechts 2 wc’s, eentje voor mannen en eentje voor vrouwen. Die voor vrouwen bevond zich in de gemeenschappelijke badkamer dus als er iemand aan het douchen was kon je niet naar het toilet.
- Zhykhar (7/5): - Расположение в центре города . Указан адрес не верный ( номер дома ) , не удобные ступеньки ( трудно подниматься для детей и людей в возрасте ). Заказывала комнату с балкономи кондиционером , а по факту жили в комнате без кондиционера и балкона - балкон был общий на котором сушились чужие вещи . И некоторые жильцы строили из себя хозяев хостела ( из-за чего могла сложиться конфликтная ситуация ) . А в остальном всё было хорошо. Отзывчивый персонал и хозяин хостела .
- Guest (8/5): Comfortable and good for money quality. - The location of the property was more than exceptional. It was at the city center , nearby of the major tourist attraction sites , with markets , drugstores , money exchange facilities and well known cafes .
The staff did not disturb the guests . We were free to mind to our business. The entrance and the common room could have more air-conditioning.
- Danish (1/5): Horrible stay, Do not ever think to stay here - There was nothing to like everything was a mess The hostel is situated on 4th floor and there is no elevator it’s a horrible experience you will ruin your trip if you will ever book this place recently i stayed with family and both managers are worst in terms of support and their behavior with guest is worst please. it’s a request save your money do not stay here ever they will start flirting with your family member girls. cheap people they are. please avoid staying here at any cost even they offer for free. i ruined my trip by staying here they show something else and gives you different rooms in another hotel. if you ask them for help like can you please tell me from where i can get sim card they will shout on you like hell why you are asking us and we will not help you in anything.
- Neda (10/5): Exceptional - The apartment was very clean and comfortable. The management was very kind and helpful. It is close to the city center and a good place. The elevator is nice and we had a great time. I recommend you to go there.
- Navid (3/5): Poor -
- Daniel (7/5): Super low budget hostel which was clean and safe - Great value for money.
Central location.
Clean.
Friendly manager Ando.
Quiet. Five flights of stairs to my room!
Rough toilet paper.
Male/Female bathrooms - would be simpler to make them unisex.
- Isabela (3/5): I don’t recommend this hostel at all - The whole property was clean. The location was good as it was directly in the center. No signage to go to the hostel. It is located on the 4th floor without lift. The stairs to the hostel does not have lights and is very dangerous in the night. Nobody is there in reception to help you bring your luggages up to the property. The receptionist made the stay uncomfortable as he flirted on messages. They gave us a smaller room than the one we booked and after we complained they gave us a bit bigger room but is still not the same as the one we have reserved. No closets in the room to put clothes. The fan in the room is faulty.
- Valtteri (10/5): Exceptional - Good and affordable place, the owners were nice and helpful!
- Roman (8/5): Very good - Good location, very nice and helpful staff
- Hernandez (8/5): Very good - Amazing location and helpful host. It is near everything. Good places to eat and great for tourism. The host called in advance and sent precise instructions on how to get to, and enter the apartment complex. We were also offered telephonic AND WhatsApp communication for anything we needed
The shower is also nicely hot. Perfect for those long tiring days and stressed muscles. The only thing missing to make the trip perfect was a light above the stove. Literally everything else was amazing. Only cooking, which most people wouldn't do, could use some improvement.
- Jan (8/5): Very good - great location, great coffee spot right nextdoor 4th floor without elevator
- Gabelia (10/5): Exceptional -
- Khedmatgozar (7/5): Good -
- Salianeh (6/5): Pleasant -
- Palmer (10/5): Exceptional - Supper location in center friendly host lovely rooms and supper clean. Nothing
