"What I liked the most was that you can simply walk in at any time without a key or even a door code, using a locker for any valuables. And of course the price of €4.20 per night that invited me to book a night in advance so I didn't need to wait for the check in time in order to use my bed early in the morning and a night extra so I didn't need to check out early in the morning while having my flight late in the night."
"What bothered me a bit was many Kazakhs seem to support the idea that you should always cover yourself, even when you sleep in a very warm environment and even when you wake up needing to go to the toilet and both toilets in the corridor are occupied by the same women I should cover myself for, seemingly taking more than 10 minutes to uncover themselves. There are 4 showers that can only be locked in the same room, so anyone not willing to share these showers, can lock the whole place for everyone else. Because of curtains and state of the beds, you have to be a good climber in order to get in the upper bunk bed. There are 2 big fridges one, even with ventilation inside, that are fuller than needed because the food of people (like me) who forgot to take it out before leaving, is occupying space. Marking food would be a solution for that."
"The staff here is very nice. And there's a lady here, Irina, who is very nice and friendly."

"Greetings to all travelers. while staying at the hostel, I did not feel any inconvenience. at a price-quality ratio. It should be understood that this is not a 5-star hotel. the administration's attitude is excellent, even friendly and responsive. many people live in a friendly environment. most importantly, there is a place to wash clothes, dry and iron, you can read books, watch TV, cook food. a great hostel for temporary and permanent residence."

"È una struttura accogliente, familiare. Non ha nulla del grande albergo ma è come una casa. Pulitissima, semplice, con un bel parcheggio protetto. In un lungo viaggio è una sosta-relax"

"The hotel is run by a lovely family. They spoke English and it helped me a lot. The room was clean and comfortable. I had the New York room. The reflective ceiling was fascinating. Mansur took me on a historical tour of the city. I could visit places that are inaccessible by public transport. I'm really thankful to him. I also learnt a lot about the various cultures in Kazakhstan through them."
