10/10 – Uitzonderlijk
4 oktober 2019
Everything was great - except the lack of hot wate
I stayed here for 8 nights. I had a comfortable stay. Some of the staff were very friendly and up for a chat but most others were indifferent, which is fair enough. Most of the foreign guests kept to themselves. Many of the local guests, however, were friendly and I enjoyed having conversations with them. My 8-bed dorm room (room 103) was quiet and had windows. The bathroom consists of two rooms - a shower closet and and toilet plus sink room - and both were clean. A towel was included. Laundry can be done on-site for 500 tenge. The kitchen was pretty well maintained for such a high-traffic and high-use area. The only major problem: there was really no hot water. I got used to taking quick cold showers in the morning, and it was an acceptable trade-off since everything else was great. Some tips: go to the Small Supermarket just past the mall (not the over priced supermarket inside Dostyk Plaza) for your groceries; taxi from the airport should cost between 1500 to 1700 on Yandex Taxi (depending on the time of day and demand). Stay here and enjoy Almaty! I hope to visit again some day. Best wishes!
