"Pros: The hostel has a great location close to the Panfilov park and several restaurants. It was also always very clean and tidy. Staff was friendly but you will need to use google translate to communicate as they don’t speak English.
Cons: The beds were quite hard. It’s good to know that the rooms only have male or female dorms. We booked two beds in a shared dorm as a couple but weren’t able to stay in the same dorm." ~Kiara
"Pros: Great location! - In the heart of Almaty! Many main attractions/points of interest in under 20-30 min walking distance. Cozy and cheerful apartment that has everything you need for a comfortable stay. Check-in was very pleasant and included the walkthrough, detailed advise on best things to see/do, and answering all questions we had. The owner was very accommodating in meeting special requests - late check-out, extra linens, etc.
Cons: The outside traffic noise was always there, even at night, which I guess is expected when you stay in the center on the big city. We had to sleep with the windows shot to somewhat tune it down." ~Anna
"Pros: Location was excellent and the apartment was very nicely furnished. Host was very approchable and was always ready to help us when we needed it. Had a really great stay in Almaty, thank you!" ~Wesley
