    Great place, weird vibe

    The lockers might be a bit small for some backpacks and there isn't space to safely store them inside the room, so make sure to bring a lock if that worries you. There are very few bathrooms / toilets for how many people stay in the hostel. The vibe is a bit weird, not going to lie, mostly men who I think live there long term lounging in the common area playing video games or looking at their phones. If you're looking for more of a traveller vibe, would not recommend staying here.

    New hostel, which means new bedrooms and bathrooms and that definitely comes with its perks. I stayed in the women-only room and it was very clean and organised. The bathrooms are new and comfortable, they all had a hair-drier which I very appreciated in the winter.

    Not only the best hostel in Bishkek, but actually the best I've ever stayed in - and I'm a rather frequent traveler. The staff is extremely helpful and polite. Here you can always meet awesome people from all around the globe, including locals from other towns, who also prefer to stay here when traveling to Bishkek. Comfy beds, nice shower, friendly atmosphere - all this at a reasonable price. Чоң рахмат!

    All the mangers on duty were very kind & helpful , the Gentleman manager helped me with ordering a taxi transfer to the Airport but Noura the duty manager went above and beyond her professional skills in hospitality to make my stay comfortable by moving me from a Room to another one , showed my way around the city , gave me some historical information about her city bishkek and Kyrgyzstan tradition, was awesome 👌.

    Bathrooms smell slightly (I think it's about the drains). But if you leave the doors open for a little while, it goes. So not a big problem.

    I really like the warm ambient of the place. The is a nice living room with American kitchen where you can meet with other travellers. Beds are comfortable and they have curtains. Kitchen is well equipped. The hostel is clean in general. In addition, staff is very helpful. They helped me to take a taxi in the middle of the night to reach my flight. I recommend this place.

    Great hostel! Central location close to main sights by a short walk. The hosts are very helpful and friendly - I cannot thank them enough for their help. They helped find good tour deals, kept my bags safe while I went on a 2 day tour of Issyk Kul, woke up early at 5am to help with the taxi, and gave plenty of good recommendations. I’d definitely stay here again. Thank you again!

    I spent 2 nights at this hostel and I liked it much! The interior is almost new and in very good condition. It's very clean and comfortable! The people working there were very kind and helpful. The location is good, close to the main street. There is nothing negative to say, everything was awesome and nice! I wish I could stay bit longer there. Definitely I would like to come again to this place! A recommendation to everyone out there! Thank you very much 😊

    The first two nights I stayed in a room where the Aircon scarcely reached. There was a strange smell in the bathroom.

    Nice hostel, very near to the center, English is spoken and the staff is nice and very helpful.

    The vibe is non existing. This is mostly for domestic travelers. In the common area you could find a few locals or Chinese people with headphones on. Not a social place. They have no possibility to dry clothes, or any areas outdoor. It’s just the rooms, the 3 toilets/showers and a small common area

    It’s a fresh and new hostel! The bed is comfortable (even if it is a bit to short) and you get your own space.

    The toilets are common for both male and females. It would be great if they had separate toilets for men and women. It was clean anyway.

    I stayed for a night at Bodo. It was perfect. Clean and comfortable beds, hot shower, clean bathrooms.

    - I don't like the tour company they partnered with. Since I don't speak Russian, they were kind of bitchy to me, so I had to look for a different company (this is not the hostel's problem)

    - This is the most impressive hostel in my travels. It is very clean, has that hotel vibe, fast internet, and extremely comfortable beds. They are also located centrally, close to many restaurants, a mall, and around 15 minutes walk to the main square. - Extra kudos to the guy staff (I forgot to ask for his name), he helped me book my tour last minute!
