Reviews
And the good part was the room size,
the room size was fine
which was worthy considering the price
I will definitely stay here again when I come back to Almaty .
You got toiletries, but just shampoo, hand and body wash, so I recommend you to bring you own
But overall it was good
The room is clean.
All amenities are present (toilet, shower, TV, refrigerator).
Wide bed.
One complaint: the mattress. It's time for a new one.
Value for money – 5 stars!
There is no air conditioning in the rooms. It will be very hot in the summer (according to other travelers).
The service was excellent.
It had all the necessary amenities and was close to the station. Ordering takeout was also very convenient.
