Going to have to pay double
We prepaid at the time of our booking. On arrival to the hotel they wouldn’t believe us. Dont use this service. There is such poor communication, loss of booking, and inability to unstand how booking online works.

Very old hotel, nice location but expensive pickup
The hotel charged me USD 38 for hotel pick. That is 12,500 tenge. The average rate is 3,000 tenge. I took Uber going back to airport and costed me 2,000 tenge. I complained about it but reception said that was their contract with the supplier. They should know better and arranged for a fair costing. It was too late for me to decline bec driver was in the airport already and it was immediate booking. Hotel facade was far from the pictures. It is a very old hotel with old design and furnitures. Good things about the hotel are location and is a bit clean. This is not value for money.

Old hotel, amenities very limited, furnishings are old and the cupboards in the room was broken, we stayed there for a short night at a low price before a 6am flight so it was not bad!

Si lo escoges te arrepentirás
El peor Hotel, que he estado en mi vida. Lo escogimos porque decía que tenía piscina, pero no es cierto -he reclamado a la web de hoteles-. En recepción nadie hablaba inglés y resulta imposible entenderse. El Wi-Fi no funcionaba. Al final consiguieron conectarme mi teléfono pero no el de mi esposa. La habitación es diminuta con camas de 80 × 1 80 y colchones viejos. El aire acondicionado antiguo hacía un ruido ensordecedor, pero si lo desconectabas te asabas. La televisión antigua tampoco funcionó. El baño ridículamente pequeño y parecido al que tenía mi abuela. Este Hotel tuvo esplendor los años 60 y ahora es un auténtico desastre. Cuando llegamos una pareja de alemanes se marchaba viendo el estado; eso debimos haber hecho nosotros.
Apenas si se puede pasar entre la cama de 80 cm y el mueble del viejo televisor. El aire acondicionado de cassette hace un ruido infernal
Apenas se hay sitio para sentarse en el inodoro
La taza se movía y el aspecto con chorrones marrones era de dejadez
No se preocupan ni de poner bien la luz del espejo que la tienen caída. Así todo el hotel
