Lonely Planet review

This was the first backpacker-style hostel in Central Asia. Facilities include left luggage, equipment rental, an info board, a communal kitchen and a small collection of videos on Central Asia. There is an eclectic array of rooms, some comfortable private and secure, others less so with beds in corridors (separated by a curtain). You can pitch a tent in the yard for around 50. Chef Babalina makes tasty food (meals from around 100). The downside is there's only one bathroom.
