Very friendly host in a small hostel. Had a private room. Dinner and breakfast were cheap, simple, and lovely prepared by the owner. It looked that one can cook its own dinner/breakfast too. Could park my car behind locked gate.
Die Atmosphäre des Hauses ist gut, das Jurten-Dorm versprüht zumindest von außen Flair! Unser Zimmer was kein aber ganz gemütlich. Störend ist das dauerhafte Nachtlicht in der Decke (floureszierend). Das Gemeinschaftsbad war ok, Klopapier nicht immer verfügbar.
Extrem nervig war, dass das Hostel mit der Vorauszahlung nicht umgehen konnte. Einige Telefonate mit Hotels.com waren nötig um nicht doppelt abkassiert zu werden...
Our stay at Friends was perfect. Nurik arranged for us the transfer from the airport even if it was really late. The room was clean and the bed cozy. There's also a yurt in the garden and you're close to Bishkek main bazaar.
