В целом остались только положительные впечатления

Комфортное проживание в общей комнате, удобные кровати. Соседи путешественники адекватные. Туалетов и душей хватает на всех. Кухня в общем доступе. Работники хостела приятные люди. Местоположение очень понравилось.

converted single family house now for 30+ people...

average

way too many beds in mixed dormitory - like sardines; male dorm has stairs blocking door; no locks on all three male dorm (two are directly to outside since it's just converted garage); male dorm is used to get to laundry area by everyone, very disturbing at night; dorm has a original glass peep hole on door so people can watch you from outside in your dorm - very perverse; mosquitos everywhere; small fridge for 30+ people; lockers too small for backpack + cannot use own padlock and dorms don't lock; insufficient number of WC which in one with showers so lots waiting in morning; large but barren garden no shelter from sun or rain

Good comfortable acco for explorers (would not recommend for staycation)

Conveniently located at a place where most visited places are walkable. Clean and neat rooms, kitchen and linens. The reception will help you with the tours to Lakes n Canyons. Rest the place is on autopilot.

One of the staff is usually super rude with tenants, always in a irritating mood, all the people we spoke to who were staying there has some or the other issue with him. He has to either start understanding difference in cultures and from where people come and a way to respond them or start being a little calm. Also, there are too many rules n regulations.. the people were literally scared to talk to each other, thinking someone might come up n yell. So if you are not going to spend much time indoors this place is good. But I will ask people on staycation to avoid the vibes don't match with the other lovely hostels we stayed.

Superb

Friendly atmosphere, we arrived early and were able to take a shower and make a coffee before going out to explore. There was a shared kitchen and fridge.

Shower had terrible pressure and there was no drinking water available.

What a decorative and clean hostel. Walking distance from Abay avenue and Panfilov park. Stayed in a double room upstairs with a huge shared bathroom. Such a lovely room ! The terasse overlooking the garden is a plus. The well equipped common kitchen is downstairs. Loved the modern energetic atmosphere!

Not what I was expecting

I liked the bed. It had enough space, quite clean and soft

I did not like the location, quite far from public transport (take 20 min to get to the closest one), there is no shops around, it even did not feel like center of the city, no proper service (I had to make my bed myself), no personal care cleansing products in WC (bring your own), quite messy kitchen. The quality does not meet the price, for this price I could have found better place to stay.

Brilliant staff, Cozy and modern hostel

Clean and new / well maintained with great proximity to lots of key attractions. Beyond that - the staff were absolutely fantastic. super helpful and responsive, really went above and beyond, spoke great English, and made our intro to Almaty easy.

Yandex the Taxi app wants to drop you one street up, the gate for the hostel is right on the street with a small pullout. Super easy to navigate but can be slightly confusing at first if coming by taxi.
