The host was very very friendly and helpful. She doesn't speak english but with google translate the comunication is no problem. They have a big garden in the back growing their own fruites and vegetables, that looks really lovely. It's just about 400m aside the mainroad, you have a kichen there and on the mainroad you'll find some small supermarkets and places to eat. I'd go there again

You are staying in someones home. And in my opinion it is the best way how to know the country.

Nothing to write here.

Valentina was an excellent host in every way. She cooked delicious food for us from her garden and even had tea and food ready when we arrived at 10 PM. The room was comfortable and spacious, and the location could not have been better. It’s 1 block from the bus stop and on the road into Gregorievka Gorge, which makes for easy hitchhiking or hiking into the natural area. Valentina made us feel completely at home and went above and beyond to provide for us. The property itself is gorgeous and an interesting window it Kyrgyz culture.

Toilets are not up to modern standards

Valentina offered the best opportunity we got during three weeks in Kyrgyzstan, to experience life in the countryside. My review is more of a personal reflection than some experiment with ”objective statements”. I have visited most of the countries in the old Soviet Union during 30 years of traveling, and for me this was a mix of nostalgia and adventure. I’m very grateful for what we got. When it comes to the bathroom standard, it’s similar to what you can expect in Sweden or Finland, if you visit somebodys inherited holiday home. The bedroom and the kitchen was really cozy, and we felt at home from the first moment. Oh, the colors of the kitchen! So lovely! Great food, wonderful host; it sure worked for us! The food is not only home cooked, but also more or less from the garden. It’s old school cuisine, and I’m sure rich people in the big cities would pay a lot for some of there dishes. It’s priceless. When the memories of the hotels we stayed at are long gone, we will still remember Valentina and her home for many years.
