Close from everything: petroglyphs, lake, bus station, museum, market - walking distance. Quiet room, beautiful garden, welcoming host.

Room is simple but very clean and cozy, even had floor heating when I visited (April). Olga is really helpful.

The host was nice and friendly and they have a play area for kids . The view from the Room was exceptional, on one side Issyk-Kul lake and the other side Snowy mountains.

This is a friendly and cozy guesthouse with a beautiful garden! Everything including the shared kitchen is clean and well-equipped with much attention given to even small details.

The really only thing I can think of is an occasional low water pressure, maybe when many people are using the shower at the same time.

The guesthouse, as the name implies, is well situated in the owners' beautiful garden. My room, one of only two with attached bathroom, was situated over the clean, tidy and well equipped kitchen. From the balcony it had nice views to the still snowcapped mountains to the north and glimpses of the lake to the south. Whilst modest (ie compact) in size, it had everything you need for a restful stay....including under floor heating, if required. I was made to feel very welcome by Olga, despite my inability to speak Russian, her husband and her daughter (who speaks English exceptionally well) and her family and the animals ! Highly recommended...........

Not so much what I didn't like, but found a little difficult to negotiate...... The upper rooms are accessed by a spiral staircase which may pose problems to the elderly and/or mobility impaired (I'm both !)
