"☺️Things to enjoy:
Location: literally 30 seconds away from the pedestrian walking street. Registan is just 10 mins away.
Breakfast: it's not a buffet and you can't choose, but they cook you 2 home-made dishes (they differ every morning): could be pancakes with jam and fruits + another dish with meat.
Staff: nice people, will help with anything they can.
People from all over the world stay there: always nice to chat.
👀 What to watch out for:
Rooms are quite old, and the carpet on the floor wasn't really clean, so I couldn't do my regular stretches.
Towels smelled of mustiness (I guess bc they don't have a dryer).
Rooms windows face the inside yard, so it's always way too dark in the rooms.
No water bottles / tea / coffee provided in the room, no kettle, fridge, safe box in the room
There isn't really a typical hostel / hotel common space to comfortably sit and chat - only this inside yard, but not sofas or room to play board games or comfortably sit."

I didn't take pic of the room as it is basic but spacious enough. The hotel is strategically located in between various sightseeing sites. For travellers who opt for tram and bus, you choose the right location because opposite the hotel just accross the road, there is a tramvay stop and bus stop. Tramvay goes to and for the main train station if you are departing for Tashkent or Bukhara. While bus goes around the city. Take bus 22 to go around the city area such as Registan centre. Take bus 31 to and for airport. Really convenient, affordable, and I highly recommend it.
The room is very spacious, the house is novel, the mattress and lighting are great, the counter staff service attitude is also super good, meeting all our needs! ㄧ A few steps away from the hotel, there is everything you need for a super large supermarket.
The only thing is 3 kilometers away from the core attractions, but the cheap taxi will not cause any inconvenience.
