The hostel at the new address on Karmysova 82, Parasat Hostel Kazakhstan is very well located for tourists, everything is nearby, the cable car on Koktyub, buses to Medeo and Shymbulak, most importantly the beds are very large and comfortable. Fresh air, a river flows in front of the house, a quiet place, guest parking. Beautiful view of the hotel Kazakhstan
Assem
We have been living here for the second week, out of inexperience we have agreed to the first offer that suits us, and now we cannot wait for the day when we leave here. I liked the area, right next to Kazakhstan, as in the photo. Only here we did not find a shower room and a kitchen as in the photo. In 2gis, they still managed to change, before that there was an even more luxurious kitchen with people like whom there no longer exist here. The toilet is constantly dirty, because there are many adult men who do not even try to get into the toilet. Moreover, there is no soap or toilet paper in the bathroom. Well, in the kitchen with grief across the floors, barely assembled dishes. Again, there is no detergent whatsoever. It is undesirable to touch the rag and sponge here, because with my own eyes I saw how the same local guest does not bother to wipe the floor with them, although they never wiped the table behind them. Tea is brewed directly in an electric kettle. Well, at night they can come drunk. Not all, of course, are like that (there are well-bred / good eagles), but there are many described. Everything in the kitchen is in the light, gas alone is worth it, but the light is often turned off here.
It boiled over to write a review, because the other day we did not have the opportunity to either have breakfast or drink tea.

Well, now to the room. Firstly, when they called for the first time, the price was 10 thousand more than the one we learned upon arrival. What is it? Negligence? Okay. Well, in the room we have one bed, a curbstone and two chairs. + hanger, thank you so much. A TV that is older than us. No table, no wardrobe. And just one working outlet. For people of our generation with various necessary gadgets, especially for study, this is more than enough. Well, okay, they would take a tee, but where is the wi-fi mentioned in the description of the hostel?
Not only do we pay a lot of money for absolutely NOTHING, so also the laundry is paid here.
Well, the cleaning conditions are magical. They did not even consider it necessary to buy a bucket for water, instead of it a huge bucket of emulsion for 50 liters of commercials.
Shoes must be removed right at the entrance. You stand and untie your laces for two hours, trying to keep your balance, but for some reason local guests can go out in the so-called ‘house slippers’ around the city.
Speaking of the 🚿 soul. Here you should be lucky, because if you came later than the local workers, then don't expect hot water. Ariston is not rubber. Come in the morning if you're lucky.
In general, it's a pity for the money, because for the same price there are places, with much better conditions (even with a toilet in the room). Elementary and you will not find an iron.
Of the advantages, I liked the tateshki here. And the owner is a good person. Aunt Zhamal treated children like that. Nicely. I always answered questions, and constantly said ‘don’t leave this, don’t leave that’, ‘when you leave, put your slippers in a bag so that no one puts on’ - a la the best advice. But even so, this does not cover all the shortcomings.
And so there is no comfort, and the fear of leaving food in the refrigerator. Light - dim): And in general there was a case when in the evening there was once again no light, one man opened the door and looked inside until I gave a voice. Then I went to the kitchen with a quick step and I never found out who it could be. In general, it is not safe for a girl.
Well, they gave the money for nothing, and even I think it would be fair to beg 20-30% of the amount back. Moving out now is too expensive (6k night turns out) We are waiting for the end of April
Update: today I found out that our expensive paid washing machine does not handle more than three kg, does not heat water and does not squeeze out. And it turned out that if you washed light things - give 300tg, now you wash dark ones - give another 300tg.

Everything is huge and cozy.
Don't have A/C but don't need.
And every staff and host are so kind.
Everything is good. Just try.
Denis
Clean and good comfort-to-price ratio. Host speaks english so it's easy for non-russian speakers
